Isn't it LOWER ONES GUARD because it's an anagram?

How did you arrive at Pentads, Simon?

Hi Starman.

PENTADS could be PEN (compose) + TADS (small bits). It has a similar meaning to QUINTETS.

Thanks for that Jim -- I couldn't see it before.

Cheers

Sorry was not around to reply as was busy at the time and only just seen this question aimed at me just now, so thanks Jim C as that is exactly how came to answer the clue as Pentads.

Regards, Simon

still haven't finished this crossword!!
23) capacity one has to limit rise of rome

anyone out there help?

23. Capacity one has to limit rise of Rome (10)

CAPITOLINE - one of the seven hills of Rome

rise of Rome - DEFINITION

Capacity one has to limit
Someones going to have to help me out. Could be a double definition (Capitol Hill - Congress - Limit power of President) can't really see any indicators etc.

CAP - I - TO - LINE

Capacity - one - to - limit

Dunno clutching at straws.

You could be right if LINE is taken in the context of a challenge to an opponent to "step over the line" to answer a challenge?
