What happens if the Celts migrated more towards the East and less towards the West?

Celtic groups had also settled in the Balkans at one point, if I got this right.
Well say goodbye to Macedon.
Celts managed barely to raid Macedon when they were in strong expeditions in the III century.
As these expeditions asked for develloped rear bases, you'll have more likely a slow penetration of territory (like Slavs did in medieval Balkans). And somehow, I I don't see Persians being too much happy about wandering peasant messing with their clients.
You don't say?Macedon was a far different beast in the third century than they were before Phillip. Whether or not the Celts come, its safe to say Macedon wouldn't remain an independent state for long if there was no Phillip esque figure to lead them.
ANd I don't get what you mean by "Barely raid". It was a pretty large Celtic invasion that took the life of the king of macedon...not to mention, it penetrated into central Anatolia...
A Galatian Empire would be interested.
*cough* Carthage *Cough*Could Celts have migrated into the Mahgreb, moving east from the Straits of Gibraltar all the way to Cyrenaica?
Then again, could the Celts have conquered and butterflied out Rome, going all the way down the Italian Peninsula to Sicily (Magna Hellas)?
Could Celts have migrated into the Mahgreb, moving east from the Straits of Gibraltar all the way to Cyrenaica? And what would the impact have been if the Celts had displaced the Amazigh (Berber) peoples, possibly driving some of them to Senegal?
