Deathblade's "Barbaric Bodyguards" edges

Okay,

Long Range: Celt. The Celtic Longbow is given the edge due to it's longer range and accuracy over the Toxton Bow.

Mid Range: Celt. The Lancea could be thrusted and get a kil or it could be thrown and get a kill. With the axe you have to swing it at close quarters and it's very, very heavy.

Close Range: Dead Even. The Celtic Longsword is a great slashing weapon but, its lack of a thrusting point means it is at a disadvantage from the start. The Spatha can thrust but, its shorter reach is a major problem. So in this case it's a draw.

Special: Varangian. The Boss Shield is a much better weapon than the dagger, due to the fact you can stun and disable your opponent then kill them. By the way, it would have made more sense to give the Celt the Burda Club as it is one of their main close quarters weapons.

Winner: Celt. The Celt will win because he is stronger, more agile and faster than the Varangian.
