Gallic Rome (Empire Divided) Battle Tier 2

Boarding Parties

The Imperial Roman army was, indubitably, the most powerful military force of its time. Its navy, however, was less impressive – shipbuilding and naval tactics were not the Romans' natural strengths. Fortunately, during the days of the Empire, relatively few maritime engagements occurred. Still naval warfare evolved. By the 2nd century AD, ramming tactics had completely disappeared along with the quick and mobile trireme. The naval ram was replaced by a long spur in the bow, used to break the oars of enemy vessels and serve as a boarding platform. To ensure successful boarding actions, infantrymen – 'marines' – were trained to fight on unstable ground such as the decks of enemy ships.
