There is some debate as to the roles of chariots in in Britain. Roman sources seem to suggest that they were used to convey the infantry into the battle rather than to actually engage the enemy themselves - rather like an ancient armoured personnel carrier. They were small wicker chariots not "heavy" scythed chariots as depicted in the game. Some of the chieftains may have driven scythed vehicles. Also chariots may have persisted in Britain due to it's being more isolated and the size of the horses at the time.Originally Posted by Caeser The III
A good unit would have been a "british chariot warband" that ride into battle throwing javelins then unload their infantry to attack on foot.
