I would suggest one of those:
1. reasonable throwing weapon. CTS is fine. VHTA have the advantage of being a strong 1H (55c) as well and you can hold 45 of them + shield. Using VHTA I often give my 1H sword to someone who needs it more and it works fine. I see also those of inf who can pick up VHTA use them as 1H quite often. The aim is however far behind CTS. Do not be mistaken by stats given (accuracy is 140 for VHTA, 118 CTS, 120 Pilum), VHTA have power throw requirement and that decreases aim pretty much (so it feels like 100 maybe). So VHTA are great to throw at those on the other side of cade (headshot, headshot, headshot...) but if you attempt to hit rangers from afar then you're in trouble. Ofc there is the Pilum, 2 x price of CTS but aim is better.
2. shield. Being Legionnaire you should be ready to shield for the team if no RG present. I use Royal Shield, Swadian Resilience is also pretty popular. To be true, while shielding I do not notice difference between them. Whent it comes to shields the trouble is they are quite expensive for Legionnaire, since good and cheap Defender Shield is not available for.
Once you have throwables and shield, I would go for gauntlets. With gauntlets you get a +2 body armor upgrade every time you buy better ones and that for a very nice price. To get the same upgrade by changing your body armour will cost 2-3 x more.
