There has been some discussion as to what a centurion commands in the high legions, A legionnaire commands a warband, so what does a centurion command? A Cohort? A Century? A Company? A Division?
Each warband consists of about 5-12 Charr I believe, which is roughly 50-120 Charr under the control of one Centurion*, which is what an actual Roman Centurion commanded in the Roman Legions. So is it right to call them a Century?
The Wiki quotes it as a Centurion commands a "Company" but is there a more militaristic way of saying this? A Company in modern terms is 80-250 men which kind of matches up to what a century consisted of, depending on what country you are in.
* The Wiki quotes it as a Centurion controls "A number of warbands" so given the name it makes sense that a Centurion would control about 80 just like the actual Roman Equivalent.
Please help! :3
