Using desert guerrilla tactics, she led troops deep into Palestine, outmaneuvering the Roman legions, who eventually accepted her terms.
No accurate portraits of her exist, so people have imagined her appearance throughout the years....
Capitano (lit. captain, one of the most ancient masks. a braggart soldier that mirror Spanish troops and mercenaries that invaded italy at the time), and Pedrolino (aka Pierrot, a servant who's cunning and sly who's fundamental to commedia dell'arte performances)
This Day in (Totally Made Up) #StarWars History: 3 ABY. Arden Migs, #CloudCity janitor, is enjoying the latest album from Figrin D'an a/t Modal Nodes, oblivious to the Imperial troops flooding into the city. But while the commotion doesn’t grab his attention, something else does.
As the Afghan war-elephants approached the Mughal front-lines Babur’s musketmen opened fire into their formations. While artillery did not play as significant a role at Panipat as was previously believed, muskets caused the panic-stricken pachyderms to turn on their own troops.

I loved WATCHING @CDawgVA’s first Pokémon Nuzlocke! We lost beloved friends on our long 13 hour journey. Forever support the troops !
Fresh from a run round the observation post looks like sig encountered a scouting patrol with a devious grin he pins the troops under his sweaty pit before idly toying with there flimsy vehicle :3
Amazing commission from the equally amazing @kurtcbrox

#OnThisDay in 1746, 275 years ago, the Battle of Culloden took place. It was the last battle fought on British soil.
At about 1pm the Jacobite Army opened fire on Hanoverian troops.
In under an hour of battle, about 1,300 were killed and roughly 1,250 were Jacobites.
Instead of seeing it as something horrible, one can see it as a challengue. Said this, even if it hasn't great army or good troops, you can spam infinite types horsemen alongside spearmen, a good combination, and advice is: don't piss of Seleucids
#OnThisDay 14 April 1655 General Venables landed Protectorate troops west of Santo Domingo, as part of Cromwell's 'Western Design' to seize Spanish Hispaniola (Haiti). The poorly planned and conceived expedition was a disaster, denting the regime's confidence. #17thCentury #OTD

Here are the latest tidbits I've gleaned for #worldbuilding:
Mayans: a ballgame ended in the ritual sacrifice of one of the teams, perhaps the victors or losers
Assyrians: set up granaries along their roads to keep the troops supplied as they marched to war

Chall 'Prawn' Frontline Combat Robot. Robot isn't a technically accurate term as the Prawn is mostly biological in nature, although their creators don't view them as properly alive since they're bred to act as a meat shield for more valuable battlesuit troops.
