 Casting Example:

Marcos activates his Arcanist(1) and decides he will attempt to cast an Arcane Bolt Spell which is a
Simple(5).

For the �irst action he chooses to prepare the spell so he does a ready action placing a ready token
on top of the spell card next to the model.

He announces he will perform another ready action, and his opponent decides to attempt a reaction
with a missile unit nearby. The unit reacts and does a shoot action scoring one hit on the Arcanist
who fails the saving throw and suffers a wound. The spell caster is still alive since he has a wound
remaining so Marcos rolls a two dice morale test for the missile attack and fortunately passes both
rolls. Since the Arcanist gained no fatigue from the attack the ready token on the spell is not lost !

For a second action Marcos chooses to prepare again, does a ready action and places another ready
token on the spell card. Marcos informs he will attempt a third action and the same missile unit
attempts to react again, but this time they fail the reaction test.

Now on the third action it is time to cast. Marcos selects the missile unit that has been shooting at
him and is within 8” and rolls 3D6, 1 for the test plus 1 more fore each ready token on the spell. The
target number is the dif�iculty of 5 adding +1 for his Arcanist level and hence looking for a 4+.

He rolls 2,4,6. This means that two hits are scored on the enemy. After rolling for saves one wound is
scored and a model removed. The enemy rolls a morale test and gains two fatigue points.

Now the activation is over, the Arcanist spent all three actions, and despite having no armor and
being in the open he does gain a fatigue point for the cast action.

 The Ghosts of Cannae
More than �ifty thousand Roman soldiers perished at Cannae. Unknown to many historians, on the
second night after the battle, while the memories of their suffering was still fresh, a ghostly army of
resurrected legionnaires came back from the dead seeking vengeance against the barbarians.

This undead list allows you to imagine a great fantasy scenario with an undead roman army looking
to avenge the defeat of Cannae. It should be used against the historical lists in CLASH of Spears.
This list follows the Legion Force Organization. The troops are grouped into:
Skirmishers, representing a mix of velites and hastati
The First Casualties, those that perished early and are brought back through the wish of the dead
Consul Paulus Aemilius resuscitated.
The Legion , the mass of Hastati and Princeps �ighting to redeem their honor.
The Dead Triarii, who held the line till the end.
The Vengeful Legionnaires, self-motivated for revenge and driven by their hatred of the living.
