Here is a fun little challenge for you - if you can correctly translate the unit names, I will PM you the unit descriptions.

I've had a little crack, I don't think I've done very well though:

Clyddynion - "club men" (i've assumed the 'cly' is from 'clybio' (to club), all the other possibilities don't seem to work very well, unless it's "cosy men" )
Clyddbren - "royal clubbers"? or "clubbers of the hills"?
Egyddynion - "... men" (no idea about the 'egy' part)
Ffonddynion - "staff/spear men"? or if 'ffon' comes from 'ffon dafl' "sling men"
Maliwyr Charde -"solidiers of the south"? (milwyr is soldier in modern welsh and 'de' means south?)
Rhyfelwyr -"Warriors"
Rycalawre - "... giants?"
Boccydau - "box pouches/bags?" - unless you're using 'cydau' as chariot (cerbydau) in which case replace bag for chariot
Drwmcydau - "heavy pouches/bags?" (as above)

Some of the words just don't fit anything I know or I've been able to look up in my dictionary. I've had to make a couple of wild stabs in the dark (as you can probably tell). But how correct was I?

Good try! I will send you what you've won

khel, i hope the units descips you PMed were written in P-celtic or some such language.

[khelvan]

Hah, no, they were in English. Though if you want them that way, I'll send all of them to you like that now ;)

But, for those of you guessing - this is not modern Welsh. It is a related language, but older! So yes, some things will be shots in the dark!
