Ueragri

(Belgae Veteran Warriors)

These swordsmen are older and very experienced, usually wearing a good quality helmet, and leather armour under their tunic. They are elite swordsmen, using heavy javelins and longswords for devastating attacks. They are effective for flanking attacks and supporting other troops in melee.

The longsword was a weapon of high worth and status within the Celtic community. A warrior had to prove himself in battle many times before he was permitted to wield one. The two-handed longsword was first developed during the 8th century BC, but fell from favour before re-emerging around 450BC. It is possible that Celtic ironwork was significantly behind that of the Romans, as apparently their longswords bent very easily and had to be straightened against the ground. On the other hand, since Celtic ironworking was several centuries old, some believe that Roman accounts of this practice mistook this practise, and it was actually a ritual to 'decommission' defeated, dishonoured or damaged weapons.
