Kotougatragakoi
(Boii Axemen)

The axe is a common weapon, being affordable, more easily produced than the sword, and requiring less training and skills to use. The Celts use them often, and the Boii are no exception. They use many axemen, more perhaps than Gallic peoples, due to their link with the Germans and Alpine tribes that use it as their main weapon.

Drutonedammoi
(Boii Champions)

The Drutonedammoi are men of steel vows, and steel weapons. Dutifully they follow their masters into the fray. Like mountains they stand beside him: unmovable, resolute, with blade in hand and pride in heart. Each man has a different tale of how he came to serve his master, and some motivations may not be as pure as others, but when the carnyx is sounded and battle is joined, none doubt their courage and loyalty.

Newjo Cingetoi
(Late Boii Warriors)

This late evolution of the Cingetos is more heavily armoured and professional: chainmail is now more usual, and their helmet is an evolution of previous models like the light Coolus, which is reinforced and heavier, as well as the Port and Agen variants. Cingetoi are now front line infantrymen, using a longsword as their main weapon.

Excingetoi
(Boii Swordsmen)

The Boians are renowned for their swords. They are especially large and broad, with a narrow point, making them useful both for thrusting and slashing. The long handle allows these swords perhaps to be used with two hands. These swordsmen are the bread and butter of any Boian battle line, acting as its main assault infantry alongside the axemen.

200 Kludda Lugiae

Kludda Lugiae
(Celtic Swordmasters)

The La Tene Celts are extremely skilled iron workers. One of the most renowned weapons they produce is the two-handed sword: a Celtic longsword with an elongated grip and a heavier blade. The Kludda Lugiae (Swords of the Lugians") are not necessarily the best outfitted, but they are of high-quality and can inflict a great deal of damage. These weapons require plenty of mobility and space to use, meaning the wielders do not organize into lines, but instead throw themselves at the enemy in widely spaced groups. La Tene two-handed swords are used in several regions, but are not overly popular because they are expensive and difficult to make. Moreover, the methods required to wield such a weapon often disallows for the wearing of much armour."
