The Kelts are a nation of barbaric tribes made up of several different clans. Mainly nomadic they tread their way over the Avagddu plains in search of the "Ard Ri" who is one who will unite the tribes and lead the Kelts to victory and ultimately to control of Aarklash (The world on which confrontation is based).

The diffrenent clans constantly war with each other in internal struggles for power and many of the kelts serve other races as mercenaries (particularly the Sessairs clan). this makes the kelts are particularly War-Like nation with some of the fiercest warriors to walk Aarklash within their ranks. This is why the Kelts of Avagddu are often referred to as the Kelt Barbarians or simply the barbarians.

When the Kelts go to War they do it in great numbers. Hordes of garishly painted warriors and warrior-women swarm over the mountains and through the forests to pour out onto whatever or whoever foolishly stands in their way. One unleashed the fury of the Kelts knows no bounds ad they will stop at nothing to reach their objective.

The Kelts are very closely linked to the earth through their Goddess Danu, possibly due to this they count among their number a variety of elemental creatures such as Centaurs and Minotaurs whom accompany the Kelts into battle.

This additional variety of hard hitting combat troops make the Kelts a feirce and dangerous opponent.

Hints & Tips:

Kelts are savage warriors, very little scares them and they will fight to the death. Their numerical superioity often provides the greatest advantage especially when combined with the fast moving centaurs and hard hitting minotaurs. By using your kelts as a horde you can quickly overpower and overwhelm most opponents. Even the weakest of their warriors like the fiannas deal a good deal of damage, so if you outnumber your opponent with a charging horde of Kelts you can quickly smash into their lines leaving trails of the enemy dead behind you. Centaurs can harry the enemy's flanks and hard hitting troops such as minotaurs and spasm warriors can shatter the staunchest defence.

When fighting against Kelts it is important to stay mobile and group or position your warriors so it is difficult to be overwhelmed.
