    deductions for equipment and supplies

    OMG wat if a legionnary was fighting Asterix & Obelix and their sword got stuck in Obelix and the legionnary tagged along after they got beat up, and was like: “Excuse me? Can I have my sword back please? I have to pay for it otherwise.” Then he tags along on their adventure and at the end of the episode he finally gets back to base and is awarded for bravery.

      There’s a papyrus letter of the time wherein a recruit writes to his father to ask him to send him a digging tool, because a superior officer with sticky fingers nicked his and he didn’t want to pay out the nose to get one from the quartermaster, lmao.

      Keep your friends close, and your equipment closer!
