What I think the Imperials should've looked like

Until he conquered Italy that is. That was a disaster and barely worth the effort.

Well at least he rid the heart of the former Roman Empire of Barbarians, he probably felt some glory and justice in that which is enough motivation for most "Roman" leaders and at least Justinian died before most of it ended up falling to the Lombards :tongue:

I think it would have been nice to see Cataphracts in the Legions especially while Hammerfell was still under the Empire.

I would have gone with "we-todd-did" instead of "silly".

Those guys look like poor mid western Napoleon Dynamite type hicks dressing up for some kind of "con" or renfaire or something. They look NOTHING like how I envision Imperials to be.

I think Imperials need to look more like http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120428090841/deadliestfiction/images/7/71/StormtrooperCorps_anh1080p.jpg. Far more accurate IMO.

Lmfao then the Imperial legions would never be able to hit their targets unless thats what you are trying to imply.

I agree with OP. Late Roman armies looked very badass.

But I shouldn't complain, at least Skyrim Legion looks better than Oblivion's.

This is what I always envisioned Imperial Army to look like = http://www.crystalinks.com/RomanLegion2.jpg

What you posted and what the OP posted looks kinda lame-like. Imperials are more organized and their soldiers would be dressed simiarly, not all "wear whatever you want" type like what the OP posted. The dudes in the OP's pic look like they would get completely owned in battle by ........ well......... pretty much ANYONE.

Oh god. No no no no no NO! I understand that the Empire is failing, but even the later Roman armies had some kind of uniform. Not just rags hobbled together.

Now now, people. The late Roman army, while a shadow of it's former self, still had the ability to kick ass.
