Unique Units
British Chariots: Can be recruited from Blacksmith. Light chariots are great missile units but are destroyed very quickly in melee.
British Heavy Chariots: Can be recruited from Weaponsmith. Heavy chariots are great for cutting through enemy lines and have high attack but almost no defence which means they are dead if they stop. They are also very expensive.
Both types of chariots can easily demolish enemy morale causing a rout if just one unit of chariots charges into the rear of a nearby enemy. But keep in mind that they can run over your own troops when charging.
Druids : Can be recruited from Sacred Circle of Brigantia. Britons share this unit with Gauls. It can be recruited by building a certain shrine. Druids use chanting to raise morale of nearby allied troops while lowering it for enemies.
Head Hurlers : Can be recruited from Shrine to Andrasta. The Head Hurlers are a fierce unit who throw the heads of fallen foes at the enemy once dipped in quicklime. This not only causes damage, but massive amounts of damage to enemy morale.
Woad Warriors : Can be recruited from Sacred Grove of Andrasta. Extra powerful swordsmen covered in war paint that causes fear in enemy troops.
