The Late Roman army exhibited significant differences in recruitment, equipment, organisation and tactics from those of the army of the Roman Principate which preceded it. In line with the centralising tendencies of the Roman Dominate, the Late Roman army saw the formation of permanent field armies, under the direct supervision of the emperors or their designated military subordinates. As a consequence of this the troops remaining as garrison forces on the frontiers became a largely separate force. Manufacture and provision of military equipment was also brought under centralised state control.
