Strelets-R M099 1/72 Republican Roman Ranks

Aside from the rank and file legionary (who received the base wage of 10 assēs a day or 225 denarii a year), the following list describes the system of officers which developed within the legions from the Marian reforms (104 BC) until the military reforms of Diocletian (c. 290). Despite attempts at equivocation legionary ranks have no modern parallel. Centurions are traditionally seen as officers; and, when viewed in modern terms, their method of promotion and manner of office is distinctly non-commissioned.
