The ammo used by the Roman legions must've sounded like a slow dull "Beehive"
Drilling out a core from the ammo would make it lighter, so as to carry more quicker for the re-load.
The Romans had true diversity that really counts, diversity of weapons/engineering/troops that makes a difference in how history unfolds.

Thanks for the kind remarks! Augustus’ disbanding of half of the regular army, and adding the equal number (28) of auxiliary legions allowed the Romans to use foreign military specialties in exactly the places they’d do the most good. It also helped to move the armed men of a subject people to an area where they were regarded as the enemy (like the Sarmatian cavalry, which was moved to Britain).
