Description
As seen in Persian Invasion
Celtic light cavalry are lightly armored and carry spears and shields. They are best used as scouts and in pursuit of fleeing enemies, and ride sturdy, sure-footed ponies with a good turn of speed.

Honor and standing come from fighting, and sometimes the urge for glory overwhelms good sense! These men are all good fighters, but find organized, formal warfare goes against the grain. They are unlikely to be very effective against steady infantry unless attacking from an unexpected direction.
