Your mates are all piled up front, Constapatirix your leader is right up there with the front "Rank", youve been watching the fight from behind a mass of hairy heards like a Rammstein Gig attender who came late. What do you do? Cheer your mates on? Try and pull people outta the way so you can get stuck in with the Mosh? Read a book? Chat with the rest of the rear rank about holidays and girls back at the camp? What would you do
.its a long battle, gotta fill the time somehow. |

It's a good spot to be in when the Romans break your warband and the rout starts. |

Fall back a bit and move towards a flank. |

Spend a little bit of time trying to work out if the cavalry now pouring out from behind that little hill on your left flank are yours or theirs
wait a sec, they all have the same coloured cloaks and plumes! Then you can spend the rest of the time running like hell ;) |

Considering the Gaulish concept of rank relief, I am waiting for everybody in front of me to get killed. Shouldn't take long, if that propaganda sheet that that Caesar dude writes is any indication. |

I'm practicing saying "I for one welcome our new Roman masters" while edging further to the rear mumbling something about fetching Constapatrix's good helmet from back in the next town. |

Turn to the guy next to me and say "lets go German. I hear them women across the Rhine are purty purty. Can you swim?" |

With my luck, the legionary 57 BC equivalent of Joe Montana chucks a pilum all the way into the back row and safety-pins my shield to my chest! |

Like all good rear-rand-warriors I cheer heartily as long as it's looking good
.if I actually get to see a Roman then I'll be making like het rear rankers of the Imperial Guard attack columns at Waterloo

I'm practicing my Latin and start to wander back to camp to see how things are going there with the women. |

Rhubarbatrix! Rhubabarbatrix! (How's it looking? can you see what's happening? Are we winning? Whoops Defecatobelinus is looking) RHUBARBATRIX! RHUBABRBATRIX! (No, I never liked Constapatrix either, why am I here? it looks bad doesn't it? ah, here we go) RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY! |

I'd be questioning my life decisions up until that point. |

Keep shouting, "give it to 'em, boys!" Keep an eye peeled for a covered way off the field. Should the Romans give way, move forward hollering even louder. |

I'm going to find Asterix, my best chance to resist Roman oppression. |

Depends are we the sort of Guals that fight bollock naked because if so I'm standing well back from the rest of my buddies and probably with my back turned to them to. No pushing into a scrum of naked blokes for me. If we're clothed then I reckon I'll be one of those rare (as hens teeth) gualish archers and give the Romans a few arrows. |
