Birikantinoi
(Celtiberian Champions)

These champions stand as giants in their community, the envy of lesser men, the dreams of maidens and the idols of children. Their wealth allows them to equip themselves with well-made bronze helmets. Wielding a terrifying "Spanish sword," grasping a beautifully decorated iron-bossed shield, and clad in bronze armour, these men present an awesome sight on the battlefield.

Bagaudas
(Celtiberian Shortswordsmen)

Bagaudas means "Guerilla Fighters." The shortsword is a common weapon, essentially a very long knife or dagger used by hunters and carried by many as a form of self defense. Warriors using shortswords are not generally very well trained, if at all. However, they are readily available, cheap, and have a good charge. They lack javelins or other ranged weapons and are extremely vulnerable at range.

Mezukenoi
(Celtiberian Swordsmen)

These men, supported by the revenues from trade and the lands they have won for themselves, have the leisure time required to enable them to train to a standard which the Romans and Carthaginians would describe as "professional." Armed with the feared "Spanish sword," a fistful of javelins and a circular shield, these determined warriors pepper the enemy with projectiles before launching a spirited charge intended to immediately break the enemy's lines.

Iberi Uirodusios
(Celtiberian Painted Warriors)

The Uirodusios (Oo-row-doo-see-os; 'Man-Demons') fight in the ancient Celtic style, stripped nude but for his torc, anklets, and bangles, and sometimes a cloak. This has a few effects; it is unnerving to enemies, inspiring to friends, and also helps increase one's fame, an important matter in Celtic warrior society.

300 Iberi Caetrati

Iberi Caetrati
(Celtiberian Light Infantry)

Caetrati are a deceptive type of infantry. Able light troops, they can skirmish while softening their enemy before closing in for hand-to-hand combat. Four things contribute to this capability: their agility on the battlefield, their all-metal heavy javelins ("soliferrum"), the traditional Iberian ferocity, and their superb swordsmanship.
