Aren't arrows and slung rocks considered "missiles"?
Yes, but we're being noncredible at the moment
Fair enough, I suppose we could always retrofit some arrows with ordinance and little boosters a la green arrow
Only if the Centurions get laser point defense systems.
Unfortunately Greeks invented that one too, specifically to use against Romans ~~if you accept the story about Archimedes at the siege of Syracuse~~ GREEK LASER BEAMS SHALL SMITE PETTY ROMAN JAVELINS JUST LIKE THEY DID ROMAN SHIPS
And parachutes for the Spartans.
Just catapult a squad over the wall and see what happens. Classic Spartagy.
The men in the back kept their spears upright to deflect those pesky missiles.
edit: Shouldn't have made this a reply. Oh well.
Tbf arrows are missiles.
In Soviet Russia, missile stops Phalanx CIWS
Do pikes act as slat armour?
