Default Roman Martial Art

I’m looking to design or find the Roman Soldier martial art. I can find the Greek, but not Roman. Any ideas? sort of from the Movie Gladiator with Russell Crow. thank you

GURPS Martial Arts has both the basic legionnaire and the equestrian martial arts.

I'm pretty sure that GURPS Low-Tech: Instant Armor (?) also has the armor load-outs for them, as well.

Edit: see my post, below.

Yep, http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/martialarts/ has Armatura and Armatura Equestris for trained soldiers, along with boxing and wrestling styles that may be relevant. (~page 150, I think?)

And http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/m...ts/gladiators/ has gladiatorial styles, suitable for renegade gladiators for them to fight

Low-Tech & its supplements should cover the gear.

Republican Roman armor (pre-Marian reform--more "Greek Hoplite" than "Roman Legionary") is on page 18-19 of GURPS Loadouts - Low Tech Armor.

Imperial Legionary armor is on page 20.
