      @@hugovenegas6509 Initially, yeah, they were made up of Caesar's favorite legions which had joined up with Octavian during the Second Triumvirate. Later on, Praetorians would be recruited directly from the Roman Patrician class. However, during the reign of Tiberius, the Praetorians amassed considerable political power and economic influence. This made them incredibly wealthy, but their wealth combined with their safe and comfortable posting in Rome let them live deeply pampered and comfortable lives. They may have trained, but by the end of the 2nd Century, most of them were rarely if ever deployed in actual combat.
      Comparatively, the Legions were often deployed to guard the Empire's frontiers and thus faced constant war and military actions, making regular legionaries seasoned, experienced veterans.
      The Praetorians were sometimes deployed to the frontiers, often times with the Emperor or someone else of note, but never for any extended posting, unlike the Legions which were often in a given area for years. The few times the Praetorians went up against actual Roman Legionaries, they were absolutely demolished. More often than not, the Praetorians would seek to control the succession so as to avoid large scale bloodshed, and when a rival candidate did raise legions against the current Emperor, the Praetorians would often abandon the current Emperor and throw in with the contender if it looked like that contender was going to win.
      One of the few times they picked the wrong side was when they backed Didius Julianus against Septimius Severus during the Year of the Five Emperors in 193 AD. The Praetorians met Severus's legions in open battle, where they were repeatedly pushed back across Italy by the superior experience of the Roman legionaries. In the end, the Praetorians abandoned Julianus after it was clear that they simply could not match Severus's forces and Severus was proclaimed Emperor. Severus actually ended up disbanding the current Praetorians and replacing them with his own legionaries who were appointed as the new Praetorian Guard.
      Subsequent Emperors during the 3rd Century would often supplement the Praetorians with their own legions, who were often more loyal to their emperors than the Praetorians. Diocletian for example added two new bodyguard units, the Jovianii and Herculanii, drawn from two of his favorite legions, Legio V Iovia and Legio VI Herculia.
      The biggest episode of the Praetorian Guard's inferiority is when they backed the Tetrarch Emperor Maxentius against Constantine in the early 4th Century. At the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312 AD, Constantine's legions from Britannia and Gaul faced off against Maxentius's Praetorian Guard. Constantine triumphed, utterly destroyed the Praetorian Guard, killing Maxentius and the Praetorian Prefect and then disbanding the Praetorian Guard completely after assuming command of Maxentius's portion of the Tetrarchy. After that, the role of guarding the Emperor was given to the Herculanii and Jovianii and the newly formed Scholae Palatinae (Literally Palatine Schools). These units would guard Roman Emperors both in the Eastern and Western Roman Empires. They would survive the dissolution of the Western Roman Empire and continue to protect Emperors in the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire.
      By the Middle Ages, the Roman bodyguards were again reformed into the Varangian Guard. The Varangians were recruited from Vikings from Scandinavia and Rus from the Volga (basically the ancestors of modern day Russians and Ukrainians. The Rus themselves were Vikings which had settled in Eastern Europe). Later on, the Varangians would be made up of Anglo-Saxons from England and Normans from Normandy and Sicily. Because of their lack of political connections in Constantinople, they would continue to guard the Byzantine Emperors up to the Fall of the Eastern Roman Empire in 1453.
      None of this is to say that the Praetorian Guard were incompetent or incapable of fighting. They were still renowned soldiers, but their lofty position in Rome meant that they lacked combat experience and their leaderships lacked tactical thinking that the legions and their commanders from the Roman frontier possessed. This put them at a huge disadvantage against actual legionaries.

    I ALWAYS loved the scene where Damocles/Marius is so CONSUMED with rage and hatred towards Nero for murdering his family and leading to Rome's potential collapse that you can hear it in his voice and the way he moves. No wonder Nero calls Damocles a demon at the beginning of the game. He's *TERRIFIED* and *SHOULD BE.* You can tell that Nero is also terrified, yelling hurriedly and terrified for someone to kill Damocles as soon as possible, even making sure that the Praetorian Guard search the city and what-not to make sure Damocles does die. This scene sold me the game when I saw it on youtube and I just HAD to try it out when I was able to. And I am so glad to be able to play it, and it's a genuinely fun game to play every now and then.
