Hall of Champions
Fire destroys but it can also create.Due to the tribal practice of making votive offerings to gods of rivers and waterways, many bronze artefacts have been discovered at the bottom of lakes and rivers all over Europe. The River Thames in London, England must have held particular significance to the local tribes as a number of bronze work pieces have been discovered on the bottom over the years. The Waterloo Helmet, a ceremonial piece with two horns, was discovered in 1868, and the Wandsworth and Battersea shields were also recovered from the river and now reside in the British Museum. Like the helmet, the Battersea Shield is thought to be a ceremonial piece as there is no evidence of damage and no sign that it was ever attached to a wooden base, which would have given it the strength it required to be battle ready.

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Bri_Ambushers) Corio Runo (Brythonic Hidden Warriors) Unexpected warriors, with javelins and swords, are useful to any warlord. |

Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Bri_Balroae) Balroae (Caledonian Slingers) The Caledonians are a fierce people on the edge of the world. Beyond Caledonia stretches a great, empty ocean, and Caledonia itself is home to a rather isolated people, seemingly relics of a former era of Celtic history. They do not have a great deal of iron, and so do not produce many swords. This being the case, they instead fight with spears, javelins, and slings. Balroae (Bal-ro-ee) are comprised of vast numbers of men, of varying ages and levels of experience. Seemingly fearless, and wild, their bodies are tattooed in esoteric spiral designs, their hair is spiked and red, and they are remarkably fearsome. They are very hardy and brave; their lifestyle demands it. Alone, a disciplined army would destroy them, but if incorporated into an army lead by a more tactically minded commander, they may prove more useful. |

Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (bri_caledonian_archers) Arkwioi (Caledonian Hunters) These hunters are skilled, but have little experience in the ways of war. While unarmoured and equipped with weaponry better suited to their trade, when called upon to engage the enemy in close quarters or in a skirmish, these men are capable of fighting with a determination that belies their lack of formal training. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (bri_caledonian_heavy_inf) Wenoi Kaledonakoi (Caledonian Heavy Swordsmen) These professional warriors live to fight, and their skill and strength far surpasses that of any levy unit. Armed with longswords and targes, these men make a worthy addition to any army, and if used well, can dominate the field. They are quite unruly however, and may not wait for guidance before leading the attack. |

Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (bri_caledonian_medium_archers) Arkwioi Laxsnas (Armoured Highland Archers) Drawn from the highlands, these men are armed with a standard shortbow and a one-handed axe for melee, and if lucky enough, some form of padded armour. |

Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (bri_caledonian_noble_warriors) Akrowiri Kaledonakoi (Caledonian Noble Champions) Often a chieftain has need of a strong, professional force of elite troops to help keep the unruly Caledonian people under control. The chief's men are normally armed to the teeth, with the best equipment: full mail, spears, and large shields. |

Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (bri_caledonian_spearmen) Slegowiri (Caledonian Spearmen) In large groups of spearmen, the weapon's technique can be taken to another level, with many varied defensive formations, requiring excellent discipline and training, and increasing the effectiveness of the unit. Caledonian spearmen specialise in the shieldwall technique, providing a solid wall against charges and making them an effective stopping force, adept at holding a line and defending the weaker units behind them. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (bri_caledonian_swordsmen) Kladiwoi (Caledonian Swordsmen) The sword is an expensive weapon, and few are rich enough to buy one, but often when a man captures a sword in battle, he will keep that sword and pass it down through the generations, as a symbol of safety. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Bri_Cwmyr) Cwmyr (Caledonian Champions) The Cwmyr (Koo-meer) are midlander champions who are not of noble blood. They carry swords - a rarity among midland soldiers - though these weapons are still rather short compared to those wielded by the southerners and the Gauls. They wear good quality leather armour that remains flexible and allows them to move freely and make use of their shields and swords. Their considerable skill at arms inspires their comrades in battle, and their bravery is noted. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Bri_Kluddargos) Kluddargos (Sword Masters) Kluddargos (Klud-arr-gus) are British champions who use very specialized weapons. Their two-handed longswords have especially heavy blades and require years of practice to master. Able to afford such weapons, they can also afford high-quality armour, including very fine-quality chain shirts. Like other heroes and champions, they march to battle to inspire their fellow tribesmen, but their weapons also give them a tactical purpose: to annihilate enemy armour. Their swords are truly fierce and destructive: their great swings split helmets, smash shields, and collapse cuirasses into the body. The heads they collect will surely be from grotesquely mangled bodies, obliterated by the force of their blows, and the wielders of such weapons will often take satisfaction in finding their foes' bodies left in such a state. |

Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Bri_Teceitos) Teceitos (Britannic Axemen) The Teceitos are an often overlooked component of a Celtic army. Many Celtic warriors are buried with axes - particularly in Britain and Eastern Europe - despite the fact that axes are neither as prestigious nor as admired as swords and spears. The Teceitos wear leather or padded vests and bronze or iron helmets to help protect themselves. They are light enough to move swiftly over the battlefield, allowing them to flank heavy infantry, and strike them from the flanks or rear. Using axes as well as javelins, the Teceitos are especially useful for breaking up heavy infantry. They are also a great asset to chariots, being able to follow them into breaches in the enemy's line. |
