Historically, prospective legionaries had to be at least 17 years old, however exceptions can made for mature individuals. Members must be able to physically perform the role that they portray in a
realistic manner.

<h2 class="mb-2">Prologue</h2>
<p>Imagine yourself as part of a heavily armoured column of Roman soldiers slowly marching along a narrow forest road. The sun beats mercilessly down on you in-between the shadows, and the humming sound of cicadas rattles off of your helmet.</p>
<p>You vigilantly scan the dense brush for any sign of the Celtic rebels that have been haunting the area. As the column swings around a sharp bend, there is a sudden commotion to the front, and an officer screams, “shields up” just as a rain of missiles slams into you. No sooner have the projectiles bounced off of your shield than the order to form a battle line is shouted.</p>
<p>As you jostle into position to meet the enemy charge, you turn your head just in time to see the forest come alive with Celtic warriors in a frenzy. Will you live? Will you die? Join Legio XXX and experience the life of legionary first hand.</p>
