but then why did the Romans issue their Legionaries a Pugio (dagger) as well 
as a Gladius (short sword)?. And speaking of Romans how can I legally model 
one (Scutum (shield), Pugio, Gladius, Pilum (Javelin), when the rules say one 
can only carry a dagger and two weapons (which includes a shield)?
