The article is probably unsalvageable as it stands, as it is based on the mistaken assumption that "warfare" is somehow specific to a nation or ethnicity regardless of historical period. It is perfectly arbitrary to conflate the discussion of warfare of the sub-Roman, medieval, early modern and modern period just because the people involved happened to speak one or another variety of Gaelic. -- dab (𒁳) 16:29, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
and "The Dal Riada, for example, after colonizing the west of Scotland and becoming a maritime power, became an army composed completely of archers." I'm sorry, but this seems like utter nonsense to me. I don't feel like adding 50 {{ citation needed}}, so what to do with this? Finn Rindahl ( talk) 23:17, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
