Maximus's army took the stone bridge as their base, with the First Legion and Second Legion extending northward along the river. Based on the Womans River's depth, their formation gradually transitioned from sparse to dense, while the Third Legion remained as the reserve force in the rear.
Attutmus's army centered around the wooden bridge, spreading out along both flanks of the river, leaving some soldiers as reserves.
The formations of the two armies did not connect, leaving a gap of over two miles. This gap was at a winding stretch of the Womans River, prone to flooding during high water, with large areas of muddy shoals on both banks.
