Check out THE ROMAN EMPIRE - THE ICENI REBELLION - a 1 1/2 hour video. For Roman tactics, see 1:16-21, especially at 1:18 on - freaking cool. As one contemporary wrote, "Roman drills were bloodless battle; Roman battles were bloody drills".

Location, location, location (small front negates large numbers), discipline and tactics won the day (again). In this battle the Romans were outnumbered by at least 10:1 and still chewed up the opposition.

The lesson of history is that trained heavy infantry, especially those fighting for hearth and home and country, will beat an untrained barbarian rabble almost every time.
