Beginning Analysis: What happens when an iron-age innovator take on a sea-fairing raider? Read on to see who...is...deadliest!?

Celt

Medium Range: Lancea
Long Range: Celtic Bow & Arrow
Special: Burda Club
Armor: Leather Armor

Viking
Short Range: Viking Broadsword
Medium Range: Longspear
Long Range: Viking Bow & Arrow
Special: Viking Shield
Armor: Ringmail & Iron Helmet

Who Got the Edge
Celtic Longsword vs Viking Broadsword: The Viking Broadsword gets the edge. It can easily go through the Celt's armor, and can lop off more that just heads. The Celt not only has to deal with a shield, he also has to deal with the Viking's ringmail & iron helmet
Lancea vs Viking Longspear: Both spears get the edge. They can be used up close, as well as thrown. About the only problem the Celt has is the fact that the Viking is carrying a shield, and he isn't. The Viking, on the other hand, has little to worry about.
Celtic Bow & Arrow vs Viking Bow & Arrow: Another tie for both warriors. Both bow have great range, and can go through armor with relative ease. Again, the only problem the celt is facing is the Viking's shield.
Burda Club vs Viking Shield: The Viking Shield gets the edge. It can do what the Burda Club does, and be defensive at the same time.
Leather Armor vs Ringmail & Iron Helmet: The Viking's armor gets the edge. It is much more durable than what the Celt is wearing, and it can protect better than simple leather.

Setup
It was a cold night in a remote, seaside Norwegian village. The wind blowing through was cold, and a light snow had just started to fall. A stranger, wrapped up in a brown cloak, walked into town to look for an Inn to spend the night in. After 3 minutes, a little boy pointed him in the direction of the One-Eyed Tavern. The stranger noticed the inn's sign, and walked right in.
The stranger was first greeted by a wave of heat coming from the open fireplace. He saw a table near the flame, with it only other occupant to be a rather large, blonde haired viking wearing ringmail & a iron helmet. The stranger simply ignored him, and sat down at the opposite end of the table. A barmaid with a large plate came right over to him, and set down in front of him a mug of ale, some bread, and a chunk of cheese. The strangers said thank you, and the barmaid walked off to tend to some of the other customers.
"Hey, you!" the viking said. The stranger turned to see who was talking to him. "Is there any business you have with me?" the stranger asked. "Otherwise, let me enjoy my food & drink."
The viking got from his seat, and walked towards the stranger. Thinking that this fellow was going to try and doing something to him, the stranger slowly crept his hand into his cloak for his sword. Instead of getting attacked, the stranger was dumbfounded when the viking sat down right next to him, holding his own mug of ale.
"I wasn't trying to pick a fight with you." the viking said as he gulped down a mouthful of ale. "We haven't had a whole lot of visitors come through here, and I'm surprised to see a strong soul come into these parts."
The stranger put down the hunk of cheese, and revealed his face to the viking. "I'm strangely complemented. Thank you." the stranger said. The viking then noticed the blue symbols painted on both sides of his face, and a thin blue line coming down the bridge of the strange's nose. "Are you by any chance a celt?" the viking asked. "Yes I am." the stranger responded.
"I've heard stories about a celt that's been picking fights with people. You the guy?" the viking asked.
"Yep, that's me." said the celt as he swallowed some bread. "I've heard that a viking from these parts had a little trouble as well. Are you him?"
The viking sighed, and quickly drank the rest of his ale. He promptly slammed the mug down onto the table, and sighed again. "Yeah, that's me." the viking responded. "Wanna hear about it?" he asked. The celt waved the barmaid over for another mug of ale. "Sure, why not." the celt responded.
The viking began telling his tale. "Okay, so here I was in the woods, not far from here actually. I was hunting in the woods for my family, when I saw this small asian looking guy, wandering through the woods, and disturbing the game. I tried to yell at him to get away, when he just started shooting arrows at me with his weird looking bow that he had."
"What happened next?" the celt asked.
The viking starting talking again. "He keeps firing arrows at me, until I threw a spear at him. It knocked his bow out of his hands. Then he picked up a weird spear, and started running towards me. One thing led to another, and that asian guy shoved a sword through my neck. Luckily, a valkyrie was flying around, and took pity on me. As you can see, I back. Now what happened with you? Who killed you?"
The barmaid came back with two mugs of ale. The viking took one, and the celt took the other. "Well, let me put it simply." he said. "I first got killed by some persians, which was ********. Then I got killed by a gladiator. I don't even know how the hell that happened. I still don't know how I'm still alive. I guess it's just luck." With the end of his story, the celt noticed that the viking started to laugh. "What's so funny?" the celt asked.
The viking put down his mug. "I can understand getting killed by a gladiator. Those guys can certainly fight back. Getting killed by persians? That just too friggen hilarious!"
The celt suddenly drew his longsword, holding the point at the viking's neck. "Laugh at me again. I dare you." he growled.
The viking got up from his seat, and drew his broadsword. "I guess we're fighting." he said, and began swinging. This guy puts a lot for force behind his attacks, the celt thought to himself. I gotta think of a way to throw him off. That was when he remembered the Burda Club he had in his cloak. When the viking had an opening, the celt quickly drew his club, and managed to hit his opponent in the ribs. The viking tumbled back over a table, knocking over mugs. Everybody else that was inside the inn began running outside, obviously scared of what was transpiring.
The viking got up from the floor, holding a shield that he picked up from a table. Breathing a litte heavily from the blow to his ribs, the viking was looking to end this fight, so he could get back to drinking.
The celt was looking around to find a weapon to take out his opponent. He kept looking, until he noticed a Lancea on a wall to his right. He started running towards the wall, when the viking came down on him with his shield. The celt flew back into a table, knocking mugs & plates onto the floor. Dazed, he got back up onto his feet, and saw the viking charging him with his shield in front of him. The celt simply stood his ground, holding the Burda Club tightly in his left. When the viking was about to make contact, the celt swung his club, hitting his foe right square on his helmet. The viking tumbled over dazed by the attack, which allowed the celt to run to the wall, and grab his Lancea. When the viking was back on his feet, the celt threw the spear at his opponent. Seeing the Lancea flying at him, the viking quickly raised his shield, and the spear got stuck.
The celt picked up his longsword & Burda Club, and went straight for the viking, who was busy trying to pull the Lancea out of his shield. When the celt got closer, the viking quickly dropped his shield, and managed to pick up his broadsword. He slipped on a puddle of ale while trying to go for his weapon. Lying on his back, the only thing the viking could do was hold his sword up into the air. The celt unfortunately didn't have enough time to react as he saw the sword rise into the air. He landed right onto it, going right through his gut, and out the other side. The viking tossed the corpse of his now dead opponent aside, and got up from the floor. He looked around, and saw the mess that he and his dead opponent. "Guess I'd better go to another inn for a drink." said the viking.
