    So are Celts.

    Aparently the occupation of acting as crazy half-naked shock troops wasn't that fatal, the Vikings actually had problems dealing with all the out of work beserkers that were bumming around after the Norse civil wars were done with.
    Fighting isn't about winning, it's about depriving your enemy of all options except to lose.

If you want me to say "frenzied charge" rather than "drugged up" I can do that, but the contextual difference is slim at best.

    I could live with them having an amazing initial charge + fear. It might insta-rout many units.

    Also, does anyone have that gif of the EBII Gaesatae sword swinging animation of amazingness?
