  1. "The Roman army campaigned across the known world..."??? Ver-ree difficult to write an opening worse than that. Ignorant and stupid with a thick slathering of xenophobia. Roman armies campaigned across the Mediterranean world and made excursions into England, the German Plain and Anatolia. They were local in time and place and had no effect on the majority of humanity nor cultures at any time.

  3. In the first minute you mean "perimeter," not "parameter" -- although the perimeter may very well be one of the parameters you worry about. Check your stuff before you publish it, OK?

  7. Vitor, Your "Finish" is just a stupid mistake, and you should fix it. You've had four months to do it in. Why on Earth haven't you? "Adopt" seems a bit odd to me; how about "adapt to"? "Mould" is optional, I guess. Net net, I think you're about a B+ in script-writing. If they ever start a category in Portenteousness, you'll take home an Oscar. Most Finns are born indoors in warm places, and have been for centuries. The Finnish fighters were clearly superior to the Russians in pretty much every department. Rural people everywhere are competent with long guns, and layabout slobs aren't, so a lot of the poor stupid Russians were just being handed a ticket to their deaths. One Big Thing was that the Finns had the home field advantage, where "home field" meant a great deal more than just the crowd and the cheerleaders. They knew the weather, the terrain, and how to build a camp fire... That they were fighting for their lives and their families' would seem to me to have been the major "non-material" factor. If they'd been fighting in July, you would be be be nattering on about how the Finns had a better attitude toward mosquitoes. wouldn't you?
