History[]
| “ | The warriors of Celtic Britain gained a reputation as very emotional fighters, capable of wide swings in their morale. Furor Celtica, or Celtic Fury, was a state of highly charged aggressiveness that all enemy armies sought to escape. If the fury could be withstood, it might vanish suddenly and turn into panic. If the Celtic leaders could manage and direct the fury of their soldiers, it was a daunting force multiplier. | ” |
