combat—not only physical fatigue but also the
mental health and stamina, which will
inevitably affect their desire to keep
answering to your extreme demands.
You will find that while in CLASH elites fight
better than other troops, as expected, and are
even better at maintaining their composure
under mounting pressure, just like everyone
else, they do have a limit. If your plan relies
solely on leveraging those elite troops, soon
they will be overpowered by regular troops,
maybe armed with lighter armor, who were
just waiting for the right time to pounce.
If you ask too much of your troops and don’t
give them the right time to rest, you could very
well see your veteran guard fall under
exhaustion and skirmishers’ javelins!
To succeed in CLASH, you need to use every
weapon in your arsenal and use them
correctly so that they can participate in the
most effective way and always support each
other.
Because of all this, CLASH is a game in which
players are constantly engaged; you will not
have time to sit back and relax while your
opponent takes his turn. You must watch his
every move and anticipate his plan a few
evolutions ahead, just as you would do in a
match of chess. You must have a clear plan in
mind and understand how unexpected results
require you to change your plan; if not, you’ll
find yourself reacting and falling into the
enemy’s trap.
There you have it! We hope that in CLASH, you
will find a good combination of fun and agile
mechanics that accurately portray what we
believe could be the reality of small actions in
ancient times.
Gather your troops and let the CLASH of
Spears begin!

1.2 What You Need to Play
To play CLASH, you will require some
fundamental components.
i. A gaming table. For standard games, you
will be able to play with just a 4’x4’ table,
while a larger game of CLASH is probably
better suited for a 6’x4’ table. A good
selection of terrain will provide for more
interesting engagements.
ii. An opponent. It is critical to find a fellow
player who will enjoy wargaming the way
you enjoy it.
iii. Two armies. Roughly five to twelve units
of around five to fifteen models each
should serve as an army.
Models should be individually based, but
you will see that the rules are agnostic
toward the size of the bases for the models.
This will allow you to use troops that you
might have already collected for other
systems.
In general terms, it should be possible to
use the rules for both 15mm through
28mm figures without needing to convert
the scale of the distances indicated in the
rules.
You will also need individual models to
represent your commanders, and this will
provide for some interesting modeling
opportunities, as you will certainly enjoy
providing color and character to your
warband.
iv. Dice and tape measures. We use the D6 as
our standard dice, and distances are
measured in inches.
v. Counters and condition markers. CLASH
requires the use of a few condition
markers. You will need to indicate fatigue
points next to units, remaining command
points next to characters, and a few other
special conditions. You can use the online

 2. Your Army

In CLASH you command a warband of units led by a few exceptional characters. Let’s have a look at
how we characterize these soldiers that you will take into battle.

2.1 Line Troops

In CLASH, rank and file troops make up the
core of your army. They go into battle trying to
defeat your enemy. These soldiers are
characterized by a selection of stats identified
in their troop’s profile.
The profile provides the key stats that identify
the troops’ fighting capabilities as well as their
ability to perform under pressure.
In addition to the troop profile, we will also
indicate the weapons and equipment the
members of the unit are bringing to battle and
any special rules that might apply to this troop
type.
The troop profile is characterized by following
stats:
Combat (C): This stat represents the unit’s
fighting ability in hand to hand combat, it
reflects the soldiers’ training and skill in the
use of melee weapons. This stat can also reflect
characteristics and quality of the melee
weapons used; for example, light troops with
daggers or improvised melee weapons will see
their melee characteristics reduced
accordingly. When the models execute a hand
to hand attack, you will roll their D6, trying to
match or exceed this stat after applying any
relevant modifiers.
Ranged (R): This stat indicates the unit’s
ability when shooting missile weapons,
reflecting the troop’s training and ability with
such weapons. When the models execute
missile attacks, you will roll their D6, trying to

3.2 Terrain
Terrain plays a critical role in small actions, as
it does in large battles. The cunning
commander can take advantage of the terrain
and use it to make things difficult for the
enemy. Heavily armored troops and cavalry
find it very difficult to fight in broken ground,
and in many cases, terrain can hinder the
tactics used by some troops while helping
others.
For this reason, it is very important for players
to carefully agree how the terrain pieces that
they will be using during the game fit into the
definitions we use in CLASH.
Note that there are no building rules in this
book; they are not required for the scenarios
in this book and will be provided in future
supplements. You can treat them as
impassable for now.
3.21 Area terrain
The first type of terrain that we recognize in
CLASH is area terrain. Area terrain must have
clearly defined boundaries. This type of
terrain is ideal to represent woods, fields,
swamps and any type of terrain represented
on the tabletop as area with clearly defined.
Area terrain is characterized by how difficult it
is for troops to traverse it. It must be classified
as rough terrain, broken terrain or impassable
terrain. Every other area of the table not
covered by area terrain will be classified as
open terrain.
Rough terrain is the more common type of
difficult ground that our troops will encounter.
Woods, ploughed fields, rocky ground, shallow
calm rivers, etc. are all good examples of rough
terrain. This terrain is difficult for most troops
to negotiate, but soldiers expect to find this
22 CLASH of Spears
terrain often, and they are used to fighting in
it.
Broken terrain can also be found on the field
of battle; it represents the most treacherous
type of terrain faced by troops. It includes
swamps, very dense woods, very rugged rocky
terrain, turbulent yet crossable rivers—
anything that really makes it difficult for
troops to move through. In general terms,
usually only lightly armed troops will dare
enter this terrain, as it is a real challenge for
armored warriors to fight in it.
Finally, we have impassable terrain, which is,
of course, terrain that cannot be crossed, such
as a chasm or similar extreme features.
Buildings are treated as impassable terrain;
full rules will be provided in future
supplements.
Once you have defined how difficult terrain is
to traverse, you must also define how terrain
affects visibility. Area terrain is classified as
low area terrain or high area terrain for
visibility purposes.
Low area terrain represents that area terrain
over which you can see clearly. For example, a
ploughed field does not impede visibility in
any way, the same as a river or other similar
types of terrain.
High area terrain, on the other hand, identifies
the type of terrain that hinders visibility,
woods being the typical example. Troops can
usually use this terrain to their advantage to
reduce the chances of being detected or
making it harder for the enemy to hit them
with missile weapons.
3.23 Obstacles
The second type of terrain that we must
identify comprises obstacles. This represents
those obstacles that troops can encounter,
such as hedges, walls, and other similar types
of features that troops cross rather than enter.

The golden rule of fatigue is that any fatigue
gained from executing an action is only gained
after that action is concluded and all tests and
consequences of that action have been applied.
For example, a unit will not suffer any negative
consequences from fatigue gained for
executing an attack action during that attack
action itself, nor will the effect of that fatigue
affect any morale tests required. After all
effects are applied, then the fatigue
corresponding to that action will be added to
the unit.
3.52 Morale Tests
Another way in which a unit will gain fatigue is
through the exposure to the horrors of battle.
The constant attacks from the enemy, losing
trusted war companions—all this will increase
the fatigue of the unit.
Seasoned troops will be able to face these
situations and maintain their fighting spirit
most of the time, but sometimes the toll will be
too high even for the bravest warrior.
Morale Tests Triggers
Under normal circumstances, morale tests are
triggered for the following reasons:
• Whenever a unit suffers at least one hit
due to a melee or missile attacks, even
if those hits are saved by armor.
• Whenever an enemy unit within 4” and
line of sight destroys a friendly unit
through melee, either by killing the
last model or due to excessive fatigue.
Note that only the enemy unit needs to
be within 4” and LOS for simplicity
purposes.
• Whenever a friendly character is killed
within 10” and line of sight.
28 CLASH of Spears
Special rules might indicate other cases in
which a morale test may be required.
Taking a Morale Test
To take a morale test, the player rolls 1D6 and
adds additional D6 according to the following:
• +1D6 per each unsaved wound
received due to the melee action or
missile attack that triggered the test.
Count all wounds, even those that
were ignored due to overkill.
• +1D6 if the test was triggered by
seeing an enemy destroy a friendly
unit or if the test was triggered by
seeing a friendly character killed.
• Some traits might require the player to
add additional D6.
Apply any corresponding modifiers to the dice,
usually due to accumulated fatigue (see 3.53
Effects of fatigue), and compare each result
versus the unit’s Grit stat. For each result
lower than the Grit stat, the unit will gain one
fatigue point.
If the test was triggered by a missile attack or
seeing a friendly unit/character destroyed, a
character that has the unit within command
range can spend a CP before rolling the dice to
improve the odds of the test.
If a character in command range spends a CP,
the unit will add one additional D6 to the pool
of dice. After the dice are rolled, the player can
choose to eliminate any one individual failed
result.
If the test was triggered by a melee attack, only
a character attached to the unit can spend a CP
to affect the morale test in the same way as
explained above.

4.3 The Activation Phase
During the small, fast-paced actions
represented by CLASH, the units that engage in
battle benefit much less from the inertia of
larger engagements, where lines of battle or
divisions push the troops to follow general
directions.
That is why units require constant direction
from commanders that keep cohesion through
the ranks and are the only ones that can
execute the battle plan.
During the activation phase, players alternate
roles between active and reactive player. The
active player selects units or character models
that will attempt to perform actions, while the
reactive player will try to interrupt those
actions to thwart the enemy plan.
The player who won the initiative decides who
starts the phase as the active player.
4.31 Becoming the active player
As explained above, players will alternate
between the roles of active and reactive player.
When a player becomes the active player, he
or she must choose one of three options: pass,
rest/rally a unit, or activate a unit/character.
The player then executes that option as per the
rules detailed below, and then players switch
roles.
The sequence continues until the two
opposing sides select the pass option
consecutively, and at that point, the activation
phase ends.
The options available to the active player are:
a) Activate a unit or character model: This
option allows the player to activate a
character or to have a character attempt to
activate a unit. Once active, units and
34 CLASH of Spears
character models can execute actions that
we will explain in detail in the next section.
b) Rest or rally a unit: This option allows the
player to select a unit with at least one
fatigue point to recover their strength,
trying to shed some of the fatigue they
have accumulated.
c) Pass: The player decides to pass. The
player does nothing and becomes the
reactive player.
After executing all corresponding steps of the
selected option, the active player and reactive
player switch roles.
If the players choose to pass consecutively, the
activation phase ends, and the turn moves to
the next phase.
4.32 Option a): Activating units and
character models
In order to activate a unit, a character needs to
spend one command point. If the unit is
beyond command range, that character must
spend an extra command point.
Once the required command points are spent,
the unit attempts to activate.
A unit that currently has no accumulated
fatigue will activate automatically. A unit that
currently has any fatigue points must first pass
an activation test.
To take an activation test, the unit must roll
2D6 and apply any relevant modifiers to the
dice. If at least one of the two results matches
or exceeds the unit’s Grit stat, the test is passed,
and the unit is activated and can execute
actions.
If both results are lower than the unit’s Grit
stat then the unit ignores the character’s plead
and the troops performs a “rest”, see the rules
for resting next.
The same character activating the unit can
spend an extra command point to improve the
odds of this test. By spending a command
point prior to the test, the player can roll 3D6
instead of just two, and again with one single
successful result, the unit will be activated.
Character models are activated in the same
way as units.
Characters can also be activated by CPs spent
by another character in command range; this
represents the interaction of two characters in
battle where one can alert the other about
specific circumstances in battle.
Just like units, characters will also struggle to
activate when fatigued and must test to
overcome this exactly as previously explained.
Actions and Reactions
When a unit or character model is successfully
activated, it gains the active status. While the
unit or character model is active, it can execute
different actions. Each action will be explained
in detail further ahead.
The player will declare the actions that the
unit or character model will take one at a time.
After executing the first action, the active
player informs the opponent if he plans to
keep activating the same unit.
The reactive player then has the option of
having one of his units attempt a reaction
before the enemy unit continues.
The player can select any unit/characters to
attempt a reaction, even if the unit in question
is not directly affected by the active
unit/character.
The selected unit/character must fulfill these
two conditions:
CLASH of Spears
• Be in command range of a character that
can spend a command point to attempt the
reaction and have available actions.
• The unit cannot have just gained two
fatigue points due to a morale test
resulting from the enemy action just
executed. Units that just gained two
fatigue points are stalled and cannot react
while the troops regain their composure.
To attempt a reaction, the player must spend a
command point with a character that has the
reacting unit within command range. If a
character is attempting to react, either that
character or a different character that has the
model within his own command range must
spend the CP.
Reacting requires a high level of alertness;
hence a reaction test must be passed for the
unit to react, even if the unit currently has
accumulated no fatigue.
To pass a reaction test, the player rolls 1D6
and applies corresponding modifiers,
attempting to match or exceed the
character’s/unit’s Grit.
The character spending the CP can spend an
additional CP to increase the odds of success.
If the additional command point is spent, then
roll 2D6 rather than only one, and if either roll
succeeds, the test is passed.
If the reaction test is failed, nothing else
happens, and the active player may now select
the action for the active unit or character.
If the test is passed, the unit/character
interrupts the enemy sequence of actions and
can perform a single action.
If, as a result of this reaction just executed, the
active unit gains two fatigue points, the active
unit is stalled, and their activation ends
immediately. Active and reactive players now
switch roles.

 5. Close Combat
5.1 Combat Mechanics
Although close combat, also known as melee,
naturally results from the actions already
described in the previous section, we thought
it would be important to dedicate a special
chapter to it. This helps us to properly explain
all the combat mechanics.
The following rules cover all that happens
once two units are engaged in melee as a result
of one of them executing an Attack action or an
All-Out Attack.
Through this section, we shall refer to the
player owning the active unit, the one that
executed the Attack or All-Out Attack action, as
the attacker and the owner of the opposing
unit as the defender.
By the time melee is initiated, the attacker has
already selected the type of attack by choosing
one of the two actions that led to melee, so
now that the troops are in contact, the
CLASH of Spears
defender needs to select the type of combat
response that his or her troops will execute.
The defender can choose among three
different combat responses: “Hold”, “Defend,”
or “Counterattack.” Each of these responses
will result in a different type of melee
engagement and will also require the
defending troops to pay a different toll in
actions and fatigue.
During melee, always consider all models in
the units to be engaged when determining dice
to be rolled and effects, and any casualties
suffered are always selected by the owner of
the unit.
Which models are in base to base contact is
irrelevant; we assume they are all mixed in the
melee.
Let’s have a look at how combat is executed in
each case, depending on the combat response.

5.2 Retreat
As explained above, each melee ends with one
of the engaged units retreating. This is not
necessarily the unit losing the melee, per se,
but more that the unit simply has suffered the
effects of fatigue, and therefore they take a
step back to regain their composure.
The player owning the unit that must retreat
picks the unit models and moves them 1” away
from the enemy. They can execute the move in
any manner they want, observing normal
restrictions for terrain or other units.
If, for whatever reason, the retreating unit
cannot execute the full retreat move and any
of the models from the retreating unit end at a
distance of less than 1” from any enemy, then
the unit gains an additional fatigue point!
You will see in the traits section that
sometimes units must retreat a different
distance than 1”. In those cases the unit still
only gains a fatigue point if, after retreating
any distance, they are still closer than 1” from
an enemy.
In other words, the fact that troops might be
able to retreat more than 1” does not mean
that they must be able to retreat the full
distance to avoid the additional fatigue
penalty.
Independently of the combat response

5.3 Characters in Combat
Characters that are operating independently
on the battlefield act just in the same way as
units and hence follow all the normal rules for
melee combat already explained.
However, sometimes characters will be
attached to a unit when the unit engages in
melee.
For a character attached to a unit that is
executing either an Attack or an All-Out Attack,
the player that owns the unit must decide if the
character will participate in the attack.
If the character is not participating in the
attack, no additional considerations are
required and since the owning player is the
one that removes the casualties, then the
character would only be at risk once all other
models in the unit have fallen.
If the player decides that the character is
contributing to the attack, then the player will
add an additional D6 for each of the
character’s attacks. These dice should be of a
different color than the other dice
representing the attacks of the unit.
Note that the player adds those D6 to the
attacks. All the rules that apply to the unit also
apply to those attacks as well, independently
of the weapons carried by the character.
Those dice are compared against the Combat
stat of the character, not the unit, so many
times will have a higher chance of hitting.
However, for every 1 rolled on the dice
representing the character’s attacks, the
enemy player can assign any of the wounds
caused by the defending troops to the
character.
The attacker will have to save those wounds
separately, comparing against the character’s
save stat.
A character attached to a unit executing a
defend or hold action takes no part in the

In general terms soldiers are always assumed
to carry one primary weapon that they expect
to use in battle. Soldiers would not normally
carry a double-handed sword, a thrusting
spear, and a bow. In the specific cases where
troops would carry more than one type of
weapon, it is clear that it is not possible to use
them at the same time, so in those cases, those

The save modifier indicates the modifier that
enemies will suffer on their saving throw dice
rolls when attempting to save wounds caused
by this weapon.
Hand Weapons
(initiative 1, save mod 0)
This category covers all the standard hand
weapons in use by most warriors. Single-
handed swords or axes are perfect examples of
this type of weapon.
Although they don’t have any special rules,
some troop types might have special skills that
will benefit troops armed with hand weapons.
Cavalry Spear
(initiative 2, save mod 0)
This category includes most of the one-handed
polearms used by mounted troops prior to the
development of the stirrups and saddle
combinations that lead to knights using the
cavalry lance.
Double Handed Axe
(initiative 1, save mod -2)
Double handed weapons allow the soldier to
cause greater damage on the enemy when they
hit. As a result of this, enemies will receive a -
2 to their rolls when trying to save wounds in
melee versus a unit with double handed
weapons.
Troops armed with double handed axes can
only use shields, following the rules for extra
equipment (see 6.31 Martial Traits).
60 CLASH of Spears
Throwing Spear
(initiative 2, save mod 0)
Much has been written over the use of spears
in history, and it is difficult to agree on a
singular view on the subject.
We have chosen this category to include most
of the heavy spears that could be used in hand
to hand combat as well as being thrown during
the approach to combat.
This category also includes heavy javelins that
were designed to be thrown just before
engaging in melee. The roman pilum is a good
example of such weapon.
Some troops will have some special skills that
will allow them to benefit from the use of this
weapon, such as a wall of spears.
In addition to this, throwing spears can be
used to do ranged attacks. For a full
description, see Throwing Spear under the
Ranged Weapons section of the rules.
As will be explained under the ranged
weapons section of the rules, when the
throwing spear is used as a missile weapon, it
will gain the unloaded condition marker. A
unit armed with throwing spears and with the
unloaded condition is not ready to use them in
melee, so they counts as having hand weapons
instead.
As explained under the missile rules for this
weapon, the unit needs to perform a ready
action to remove the unloaded condition
marker.
Thrusting Spear
(initiative 3, save mod 0)
This category groups the longer spears that
were used exclusively for hand to hand
combat—for example, the hoplite spear. Some
of these weapons varied in length; some would

carry heavy shields, then they must include
the Extra Equipment trait.
Troops armed with javelins use the throw
action when attacking with their missile
weapons.
Javelin (Mounted)
(close range 4”/long range -, save mod 0)
When the troops using javelins have the
mounted trait, these rules apply to the javelin
instead of the previous entry.
The close range is 4” for mounted troops, and
they cannot shoot at long range. Mounted
troops use the Mounted Shooting action when
using their missile weapons.
Throwing Spear
(close range 4”/long range -, save mod -1,)
This category includes the heavier thrown
weapons, spears, or heavy javelins, thrown at
short range usually prior to entering melee.
Troops armed with throwing spears use the
Throw action when doing ranged attacks, and
they gain an unloaded condition marker after
executing the Throw action.
A unit with the unloaded condition marker
cannot use their missile weapons again until
they execute a Ready action.
Once they execute a Ready action, the
condition marker is removed.
In addition, the unloaded condition has
additional implications for this weapon, as
indicated in the melee rules for this weapon.
This represents the time required to ready
another weapon, sometimes even carried by a
servant in the rear.
62
When executing a throw action, enemy units
suffer a -1 modifier to their save rolls.
Throwing spears have a close range of 4” and
do not shoot at long range.
Refer to the melee version of the throwing
spear for a full description of the use in melee.
Sling
(close range 8”, long-range 12”, save mod 0/+1)
The sling was a very predominant weapon in
ancient times and was very effective. The sling
has a close range of 8” and long range of 12”,
although special traits can affect these
characteristics, reflecting special ammunition
used by some specialized slingers.
At short range the sling can be very effective,
and thus the sling has no save modifier up to
4”. Beyond 4” the transferred energy of the
bullet is somewhat reduced, but it is still
comparable to the bow, so beyond 4”, enemy
troops benefit from a +1 save modifier when
being shot at by troops armed with slings.
Bow
(close range 8”, long-range 16”, save mod +1)
This category groups the most standard of
missile weapons. They have a close range of 8”
and a long range of 16”.
Bow armed troops use the Shoot action when
attacking with their missile weapons.
Any saving throws required due to bow
attacks will benefit from a +1 modifier to their
roll.
Troops armed with bow can never use shields
or heavy shields; if these troops are armed
with either of them, then they must have the
Extra Equipment trait (see 6.3 Traits).

These troops are well trained in military drill,
allowing them to operate more efficiently in
close order. This is usually the case for troops
that receive formal military training and are
used to operating in large, close order
formations on the battlefield. This allows small
͸͸  ‘ˆ’‡ƒ”•
groups of these troops to move faster while

• If the unit is armed with cavalry spear or
kontos/xyston, then the target will suffer a
-1 save roll modifier.
• If the unit is armed with lance, then the
target will suffer a -2 save roll modifier.
Impulsum
(requires throwing spear, affects throw)
The impulsum trait is used to characterize
troops that specialized in tactical use of the
throwing spear to maximize their effectiveness
at disrupting closed order enemies.
This was achieved through superior timing and
execution of their missile attacks prior to the
melee, combined with special development of
their throwing spears, such as the case of the
Roman pilum or the Spanish soliferrum.
Enemy troops in close order that are forced to
test morale due to throwing spear missile
attacks from enemies with the impulsum trait
add one additional D6 to their morale test, just
as if they had suffered an additional casualty,
68 CLASH of Spears
Macedonian Drill
(requires any pike and close order, affects save)
The Macedonian phalanx was trained to
combine the use of the pike with their shields
while in close order.
While in close order, troops with this trait can
claim the benefit of a shield against any ranged
or missile attack coming from any enemies
that are to their front.
Massed Charge
(requires close order and lance, spear or
kontos/xyston, affects attack)
Troops that charge in a massed formation can
have a significant impact on enemy morale due
to the sheer image of massed horses and riders
charging. In addition, the sheer inertia of the
close order formation can help drive the charge
forward in situations where the troops would
normally hesitate, like, for example, when
facing a wall of spears.
A unit with the massed charge trait that
executes an Attack action while in loose order
gains the same benefits as units with the
charge trait.
When a unit with massed charge executes an
attack in close order, they can execute an 8”
move, as long as this move is done straight in
the facing direction without any turns or shifts,
thus ignoring the 4” move restriction for
mounted units in close order. In addition, if
attacking in close order with a higher weapon
initiative than the enemy, they will gain the
following benefits:
• If the enemy unit selects Counterattack as
a combat response, the attacking unit will
roll their attacks first, and only surviving
enemies will get to strike back.

There are many types of cavalry, and they will

naturally follow their instinctive training where
possible and behave in a similar manner as

(requires sling and loose order, affects sling

Specialist slingers would often carry different
slings to cover different ranges, and they would
also carry specialized lead ammunition,
providing improved range and accuracy. This
meant that the sling could match or even
outperform the range of the bow.

Wall of Spears
(requires any spear or pike and close order,

Many troops were trained to use their spears
creating a wall of spears making it very difficult
for the enemy to close in. Troops used to this
style of fighting would adopt a similar method,
even while in smaller groups. Though not as
formidable as a fully deployed phalanx, a well-
trained band of warriors with thrusting spears
is always difficult to attack from the front.

6.32 Disposition Traits
Disposition traits show some natural
characteristics of the troops that are not really
associated with military training but rather
with their personalities and with the way that
these troops engage in battle.
Allies
(affects force break test results)
These are allied troops, and they might hesitate
if things get tough.
When testing for force break test, if you roll at
least one failure, then all your troops with this
trait gain an action token, so they will start
next turn as if they had already executed their
first action.
Determined
(affects grit tests)
These soldiers have a natural resilience and
stamina, resulting in a superior drive toward
achieving their objectives while in combat.
When these troops are required to take any
tests against the Grit stat, they can ignore any
fatigue modifiers for that test.
Endurance
(loose order, affects movement and fatigue)
These troops have natural endurance and can
sustain cover long distances while conserving
their energy.
When a unit with this trait that has already
accumulated two action tokens chooses to
execute another action, and this action is a
Move action, the unit does not gain any fatigue,
and in that Move action, they can move 6”
instead of the normal 4”.
72 CLASH of Spears
Feral
The use of animals for war has not been
uncommon over the history of humanity.
Particularly in skirmish actions, these can be
useful additions to any force. These rules cover
animals like war hounds or other examples of
animals trained for war that are accompanied
by a controller to be effective.
Feral models move 4”, just like infantry, but
treat rough terrain as open terrain for purpose
of the fatigue chart; broken terrain is till
treated as broken terrain.
When feral models execute an All-Out Attack,
they can move a total of 8” to get into contact
with the enemy rather than just 4”.
Feral models gain a +2 save modifier against
missile attacks when they are in the open and
a +3 save modifier against missile attacks
when in cover.
Feral models can never select Defend as a
combat response, they will either hold or
counterattack. Their natural weapons count as
hand weapons for all melee purposes.
Any unit of feral models always includes a
handler model at no additional points cost.
The model does not participate in any combat.
His role is just to control the animals and
sometimes perform any mission-related
objectives for the unit, like looting or similar,
depending on the scenario.
Characters can never attach to units of feral
models.
Whenever a unit of feral models suffers any
ranged attack hits and the unit rolls their
saving throws, if any natural ones are rolled,
then the handler has been killed, and the feral
models disband, leaving the battlefield.
For all other purposes, fatigue, and casualties,
the handler is treated as just another regular
model. If all the feral models are removed from
the tabletop, the handler is removed as well.
 
Fidelis
(affects morale tests)
These troops have superior ability to withstand
the horrors of battle.

Rampage
A mahout can push an elephant into a rampage
as an action. When this happens, the elephant
moves forward 4” in a straight line and gains a
rampage token. If, after this move, the
elephant has any actions remaining, the
activation continues, and the remaining
actions must be taken. If the elephant failed
the activation roll thee the activation ends
after the player places the rampage token.
An elephant with a rampage token can only
execute rampage actions, which result in the
elephant moving straight forward 6”.
After each 6” move is done, the mahout can try
to bring the elephant under control by rolling
a D6 and matching or exceeding the Grit stat. If
the test is passed, the elephant stops
stampeding, and the activation ends
immediately. Even if there were any actions
remaining, remove the rampage token. If the
test is failed, then the elephant continues with
the rampage, and the control test can be
attempted again after the next 6” move.
Note that you cannot attempt a control test
after the initial 4” move. It can only be
attempted after each of the subsequent 6”
moves.
Although mahouts could kill rampaging
elephants when needed, we assume that, given
the scale of the action represented, the mahout
will not take such a drastic determination. This
would be reserved for a rampaging elephant
charging toward the main battle line of
friendly troops.
An elephant with a rampage token next to it
still needs to be activated as normal if the
player wants to time the actions correctly
during the turn. Alternatively, the player may
choose not to activate the elephant and still
the rampaging elephant will get to move
during the end phase as explained later. Again,
a failure to activate will mean that only one
action is taken.
78 CLASH of Spears
If a rampaging elephant moves into base-to-
base contact with a unit, or within 1” of a unit,
then the unit has to move as explained before
under the move action.
However, a rampaging elephant is much more
dangerous, so when this happens, the elephant
will do four attacks against this unit
independently of this being a friendly or
enemy unit. The attacks hit on a 3+ and cannot
be saved.
The unit suffering the rampage attack can
execute a special combat response called
Dodge. It costs an action but results in no
additional fatigue gain.
If the unit executes a Dodge, the owner of the
unit rolls 1D6 per each hit scored and
compares the result against the unit’s save stat.
For each result that matches or exceeds the
unmodified save stat of the unit being attacked
by the elephant, a wound is confirmed, and
models are removed accordingly. Any results
lower than the unmodified save stat of the unit
are dodged and are ignored. This is one of the
few cases when rolling low is preferred in
CLASH.
Note that having more armor is, of course, a
bad thing when trying to dodge. Also note that
save modifiers such as fatigue do NOT help
you since the results are compared against the
unmodified save stat.
Just like with move, if the elephant goes fully
past the unit, then there is no need to move the
unit; however, the Rampage attack is still done
exactly as above!
After any potential hits are resolved, any unit
that was contacted by a stampeding elephant
must take a morale test with 2D6 plus one
additional D6 for each wound suffered.
During the end of phase, just before the
recovery phase, every elephant with a
rampage token must perform one Rampage
move per each action that they have not taken,

7.2 Light Chariots
Before cavalry became a common combat
troop type, armies had already thought about
ways of using horses for war.
In these earlier stages of warfare, chariotry
was an effective way to have fast mobile
troops on the battlefield. These tools of war
continued to be used until mounted troops
finally took over.
The light chariot pulled by two horses and
usually carrying one or two passengers might
be seen at a skirmish here and there, so we
wanted to make sure that we would have rules
to cover them.
In CLASH of Spears, light chariots can be
included in your force but only when
purchased for characters. The lists will
indicate which armies can do this.
Note that light chariots are not a type of shock
weapon. They basically provide speed and
allow the characters a moving platform
conveniently driven by their “chauffer” to get
them around the battlefield.
A low-level character such as a veteran
warrior might leverage chariots to use them
from missile skirmishing, while higher-level
characters could take advantage of the added
mobility to expand their sphere of influence in
the battlefield. Ultimately it is up to the player
how they will use these interesting additions
to their war party.
General Rules
The character riding the chariot and the
chariot are treated as a single model and
throughout the following rules, “chariot” and
“character” are referenced indistinctively.
82 CLASH of Spears
A character riding a chariot always counts as
having the Mounted trait (see 6.31 Martial
Traits).
However, chariots are not as nimble as cavalry,
so the following rules apply.
Chariots move 8”, must always execute any
moves in a straight line forward, and can never
enter rough or broken terrain. Characters
riding chariots always use the fatigue chart
entry for troops armed with save 6+ or worse,
independently of the armor carried.
When a chariot executes a move action, the
chariot can do one 45-degree turn before
starting the move, and a second 45-degree
turn at any point during the first 4” of move.
After this second turn is done, the chariot can
only move an additional 4”, even if it had not
executed the full 4” before doing the turn.
When executing the 45 degree turns, always
pivot the model around it center so that the
center point remains in the same place.
Characters doing missile attacks from a
chariot do so using the mounted shooting or
mounted Throw actions, and any missile
weapon purchased will count as the mounted
version of such weapon while the character is
riding the chariot. While executing the
mounted shooting/throw action, the second
45-degree turn is executed at the same point
where the shooting/throw takes place. In
addition to this, when executing the
shooting/throw action, the character will roll
two dice, rather than just one, due to the
advantage of being able to attack from the
moving platforms.
Chariots have a 360-degree visibility/fire arc.
Characters riding on chariots cannot attach to
any units.
A character may, at any point in the battle,
choose to disembark from the chariot by doing
a Move action, an Attack, or an All-Out attack
action.
The character performs the movement part of
the action, measuring from the edge of the
base of the chariot. When this happens, simply
place the character on foot on the table and
remove the chariot model, as it is assumed that
the chariot driver leads the chariot away from
the battlefield once the character decides to
disembark.
At the start of the end phase, just before doing
the recovery step, any character riding a
chariot that has not gained any action token
during the turn can execute a free move.
This free move can be done by turning the
chariot up to 45 degrees and moving up to 8”.
Note that this is more restrictive than the
regular move, which normally allows for two
45- degree turns.
No fatigue or actions are gained from this.
If both sides have chariot alternate moving
chariots, starting with the player that was the
first active player this turn.
Chariots should be placed in bases that are
appropriate for the model.
Chariots and Melee
Characters riding chariots can engage in melee
from the chariot, or they can disembark to
fight on foot as explained before.
A character riding a chariot can be targeted
even if they are not the closest enemy, due to
the inconspicuous nature of the chariot.
When the chariot engages in melee, a standard
combat takes place between the character and
the engaged enemy, again with the same
benefits as models with the mounted trait.
If, as a result of the melee, the enemy is forced
to retreat 1”, then the chariot can immediately
make a 45-degree turn before moving on to
any subsequent action. This reflects in some
way the hit-and-run tactics of the light chariot
CLASH of Spears
that is not aiming to clash frontally with the
enemy.
If, on the other hand, the character riding the
chariot is the one that must retreat, then the
chariot is destroyed .
Either the horses’ links were severed, or one of
them was killed, or the driver was killed. In
this case replace the chariot with a figure that
represents the character that was riding the
chariot, and place the model 1” away from the
enemy that was engaged in melee.
Chariots and Missile Attacks
Characters riding chariots do get the benefits
granted by the mounted trait, as explained
before, and so benefit from that -1 to hit
modifier while they are an active unit.
However, just like with melee, a character
riding a chariot can be targeted, even if they
are not the closest enemy.
Also, when attacking a character riding a
chariot, each natural 1 rolled by the attacker,
before applying any modifiers, will cause a hit
to some element of the chariot, a horse, the
driver, etc.
For each hit, the chariot must make a saving
throw, ignoring all save modifiers looking to
roll a 3+. If any hits taken by the chariot are not
saved, then the chariot has suffered some
irreparable damage, loss of the driver, or a
horse. Replace the chariot with the character
that was riding it, and from now on, the
character continues to act as a character on
foot. In addition to this, if the player got any
natural 1’s when rolling the chariot’s saving
throws, the character suffers one wound; only
one wound is ever gained.

• Alternatively, you can use the following
variable terrain set up rules for pickup
games.
To use the variable terrain rules, players first
choose opposite sides of the table.
Next each player must secretly select a
number of terrain pieces that he hopes to have
on the field. This must be a number between 2
and 5; you could write it down, use a hidden
D6 and reveal, or use any other system you can
imagine.
Both players reveal their totals, and the
average of the two numbers rounded up is the
base number of terrain pieces to be used.
The player that chose the higher number of
terrain pieces rolls a D6 to determine how
many extra terrain pieces are added to the
base number of terrain pieces. If both players
wrote the same number of pieces, flip a coin to
see who rolls the D6.
1–2: Add no terrain
3–4: Add one piece of terrain
5–6: Add two pieces of terrain
Once the final number of terrain pieces is
determined, players alternate placing terrain
on the table, starting with the player that
rolled the D6 on the previous step.
When selecting and placing a terrain piece, we
recommend the following common list of
terrain features, but you could use other
terrain features that you might have available
as long as you can characterize them according
to the terrain rules (see 3.2 Terrain).
The terrain pieces selected are classified as
small if they can fit within an 8” by 8” square
area, or large if they can fit on a 12” by 12”
square area, larger terrain features should not
be used when following this system.
Recommended terrain pieces:
94 CLASH of Spears
• Woods and ruins: Treat as high rough area
terrain.
• Marsh or rocky ground: Treat as low
broken area terrain.
• Ploughed fields or rocky ground: Treat as
low rough area terrain.
• Enclosed fields: This should be a piece of
area terrain that can be treated as rough if
you consider that the field has been
recently ploughed or just as open terrain if
not. The field is fully surrounded by
hedges or walls that are treated as low
obstacles.
• Buildings: Impassable high area terrain.
• Ponds: Impassable low area terrain.
• Hills: Hills are treated as gentle slopes (i.e.,
open terrain). You may place other pieces
of terrain overlapping a hill; for example,
rocky ground on top of a hill would turn
the hill into rough ground.
When placing a terrain piece, you must
observe any restrictions indicated by the
scenario; for example, sometimes some
scenario objectives cannot overlap with area
terrain. Also, terrain pieces can never be
placed closer than 2” from another terrain
piece that has already been placed on the table,
with the exceptions of hills.
After placing each terrain piece, your
opponent rolls a D6:
On a roll of 6, your opponent can pivot the
terrain piece around the center and move it up
to 8” in any direction.
On a roll of 4 or 5, your opponent can move the
terrain piece in any direction up to 4” or can
pivot the terrain piece around the center in its
current location.
On a roll of 1, 2, or 3, the terrain piece cannot
be modified by your opponent.
Apply a +2 to the die roll if the terrain piece is
a large terrain piece, an enclosed field, or
broken area terrain.

9.3 The Engagement phase
The small warbands that face each other in
CLASH cannot usually benefit from advanced
scouting or vanguards used by large armies to
gather intelligence from the enemy. In fact, the
warbands might themselves be the scouting
patrols. This means that most of the time,
CLASH warbands must face the enemy
advancing blindly into the unknown.
We represent this by going through the
engagement phase prior to fighting every
battle.
During the engagement phase, players try to
outmaneuver each other by using deployment
counters to represent the units in the warband
or some independently detached scouts.
The phase ends when both sides reveal their
troops to the enemy, and the action is ready to
commence.
9.31 Deployment Counters
To deploy your warband, first take the time to
identify each unit of line troops (i.e., not the
characters, in your force with a corresponding
number). You can do this by placing numbered
counters next to your units on the side of the
table or by simply writing on your army roster
a corresponding number next to each unit.
Next you will need one deployment counter
for each unit. The deployment counters can be
done in many ways, but the counters must fit
in a square area, 2” by 2”.
Each counter should have a number ID
matching one of the numbers given to your
warband units. The number in each counter
should not be visible to your opponent so that
they will not know which counter is associated
with each unit.
CLASH of Spears
If you don’t have counters, you can always just
use models from your warband as counters,
placing a number under their bases so that
your opponent can’t see it.
Remember that you don’t want your opponent
to know which counter represents which units,
so make sure not to give them any hints. For
example, don’t use individual models from
each unit to represent those exact units.
There is no need to number characters as they
deploy after the warband is on the table.
In addition to the counters representing your
units, you will also need a few additional
deployment counters.
You will need one additional counter for each
infantry unit with a save stat of 6+ or worse,
and one for each cavalry unit in your warband
with a save stat of 5+ or worse.
These counters represent scouts that have
been deployed from these lightly armored
units and can run ahead to try to find where
the enemy might be. Think about the opening
scene in the movie Conan the Barbarian, with
the scouts running ahead of the main party
about to attack Conan’s village!
These counters don’t need to be numbered, or
if they are, those numbers will not be
associated with any unit in the roster.
These scouts are very useful, serving two
purposes. They help you detect enemy units
but also provide false information to the
enemy, who doesn’t know if that counter
represents just a scout or a full combat unit.
After both sides have prepared their
deployment counters, players are ready to
start the engagement phase.

9.4 Determining the Winner
These low-level engagements represented by
CLASH can be brutal affairs. In large battles,
when an army disengages, cavalry can be used
to screen the retreat, or maybe the opponent
is just too exhausted to pursue, unless you get
trapped like the Roman army at Cannae.
In skirmish actions, disengaging is a little bit
different. Some troops will abandon the field
of battle as they get overwhelmed by fatigue,
but other troops will try to remain as long as
possible, trying not to turn their back on the
enemy.
Despite this, at some point a force will
suddenly decide that the juice is no longer
worth the squeeze and will abandon the field
of battle. This is determined by the force break
test.
The Force Break Test
During a battle, a force accumulates a number
of break points. When, at the end of any turn, a
force has accumulated at least 3 break points,
it needs to take a break test.
Whenever a player needs to take a force break
test, the player must roll a total of 3D6. Each
result is compared against best grit stat of any
unit, not character, with at least one model still
on the table (ignore fatigue modifiers).
Apply a -1 modifier to each die per each break
point above 3 currently accumulated by the
warband.
Each result lower than the grit stat is
considered a failure, and each result that
matches or exceeds the grit stat is a success.
• If no failures were rolled, nothing happens;
fight on.
• If one failure was rolled, that force will
suffer -1 to their next initiative roll, and
CLASH of Spears
any units with the Allies trait immediately
gain an action token and will start the next
turn as if they had already taken an action.
The allies hesitate as they consider their
allegiance; they choose to stay and remain
loyal, but that hesitation slows them down.
• If two failures were rolled, then the force
breaks and abandons the field.
This test must be taken at the end of every turn
on which the force holds 3 or more break
points.
If both sides have accumulated at least 3 break
points, then only the side that has accumulated
more break points has to test.
If, at the end of a turn, both sides have
accumulated 3 or more break points, and they
have accumulated the same amount of break
points, then both sides will test
simultaneously.
However, in some scenarios, the victory
conditions might modify this, dictating
priority for one side to test over the other.
As soon as a side breaks, the battle ends. It is
not always the case that the side that broke
will lose the battle since the victory conditions
are what actually determines the winner. Still,
in many cases, the side that did not abandon
the field will be able to accomplish additional
victory conditions that could very well help
achieve victory.
The specific victory conditions, as well as
special tactical situations that result in forces
gaining break points, will be covered in the
corresponding section of each scenario
description.
In addition to any scenario specific conditions,
a force will always accumulate break points
due to casualties.
To determine how casualties affect break
points, count the total number of models in
your force, not counting the character models.

10.3 Prebattle Scouting
A large battle is about to take place. The army
commanders desperately need to gather
information about the enemy army. Where is
the enemy camp, how are they deploying,
what terrain the enemy is choosing? All this
information can be critical for the army
commanders.
An army can get the upper hand on the enemy
through effective scouting having a dramatic
impact on the battle that will soon follow.
In this scenario both armies have deployed
scouting forces, and you are commanding one
of them. You have to find a way to gather
information about the enemy’s disposition.
10.31 Scenario setup
No special objective counters are needed for
this scenario. Add terrain to the table (see
9.1.2 Terrain Setup ).
The deployment phase takes place at dawn
unless players agree to change this.
Deployment counters must be placed within
the respective shaded areas seen on the
scenario map.
Prebattle Scouting Scenario Map
CLASH of Spears
10.32 Victory conditions
Both forces are trying to gather information
about the enemy army, which is camping
beyond the opponent’s table edge.
To gather information, the scouts need to get
to within 8” of the enemy table edge.
The table is divided on an eastern half and a
western half, and scouts want to gather
information on both quadrants.
At the end of the turn, any unit that is within 8”
of the enemy table edge gains an exploration
counter. They gain an eastern exploration
counter or a western exploration counter
depending on where the majority of the
models in the unit are. If the models are
equally placed on both sides, the player
chooses one of the two exploration counters.
A unit can only gain each quadrant exploration
counters once, but it could gain both the
eastern and western exploration counters in
two different turns.
At the end of each turn, when counting the
number of break points that each player has,
each side will add an extra break point if the
enemy currently has a unit that has one of the
exploration counters. If they have a unit or
units that have both east and west exploration
counters, then add two break points.
If a unit with an exploration counter is
destroyed, then the counter is lost. This is why
it might be a good idea to explore with more
than one unit to have redundancy.
If a unit carrying an exploration counter leaves
the field of battle off the player’s own table
edge, any remaining models of the unit do not
count as casualties. Place the unit next to the
table with the exploration counter, and you’ll
be able to claim it at the end of the turn just as
if the unit were still on the table.
By eliminating the units that have the
exploration counters, the players can try to

10.4 Force Projection
Two generals have been maneuvering their
armies for days. Selecting the battlefield is no
easy task. Finally, it seems that the battle will
start soon, yet as the armies deploy, both
generals send forward scouting patrols to
capture what they consider to be key terrain
locations.
Holding these locations can prevent the enemy
from surprising the army while deploying, and
at the same time, if the scouting force can
project force over the enemy territory, this
will hinder the enemy deployment.
Many examples of this can be found in history.
Hannibal was known for outmaneuvering the
romans in this way during his campaign in
Italy, and thus the Romans would find
themselves at the mercy of ambushes or
deploying their forces under poor tactical
conditions most of the time.
10.41 Scenario setup
Place a single objective marker on the center
of the battlefield. This objective marker is
considered just a marker and does not hinder
line of sight or movement in any way and
should fit within a 20x20mm square area.
Add terrain to the table (see 9.1.2 Terrain
Setup ). No terrain features can overlap the
objective marker.
The deployment phase takes place at dawn
unless players agree to change this.
Deployment counters must be placed within
the respective shaded areas seen on the
scenario map.
CLASH of Spears
This is my land scenario map.
10.42 Victory conditions
Both sides are trying to project force over the
enemy, and to do that, they must attempt to
achieve two objectives: establish control over
the territory and get troops into a position
threatening to the enemy army that lies
beyond the battlefield.
At the end of each turn, after calculating the
break points from sustained casualties, the
following conditions are evaluated.
A side will add +1 to their break points if the
enemy has control of the central objective
marker. As usual control is defined by having
at least one of your models within 4” of the
objective and no enemy models within 4” of
the objective.
A side will add +1 to their break points if the
enemy is threatening their table edge. In order
to threaten a table edge, you must have at least
one unit of no fewer than three models that is
at least 8” from the enemy table edge. As
always, as long as one model in the unit is
within 8” of the edge, the whole unit is deemed
to be within 8” and thus threatening.
111
A side can be fulfilling both conditions at the
same time, thus adding 2 break points to the
enemy.
These break points do not accumulate from
turn to turn; they are only valid while the
condition is fulfilled at the end of each turn, so
the enemy can try to negate them by fighting
back against the units that are fulfilling those
conditions.
The game ends when a side breaks or when
the final turn is finished, as per the variable
game length rules.
If a side breaks, the enemy army achieves a
total victory.
If neither side breaks, when the game ends,
count the total number of break points, and
the side with fewer break points achieves only
a marginal victory since the ultimate objective
of force projection had not really been fully
accomplished in the desired amount of time!
If they both accumulate the same number of
break points, then it is a bloody draw.

10.5 Retrieval
In this scenario to opposing commanders have
received information from some critical item
that needs to be retrieved or it could be the
location of an agent to be rescued, yet the
information is not precise and patrols are sent
on this retrieval mission.
10.51 Scenario setup
Place a three objective markers that should fit
on 20x20mm square bases as seen on the
scenario map.
Add terrain to the table (see 9.1.2 Terrain
Setup ). No impassable terrain featrure can
overlap the objective markers.
The deployment phase takes place at dawn
unless players agree to change this.
Deployment counters must be placed within
the respective shaded areas seen on the
scenario map.
This is my land scenario map.
10.52 Retrieving the loot
Only one of the three objective counters is
actually the loot that the forces are looking for.
In order to retrieve the loot, you must first find
out which objective marker is actually the loot.
As soon as a unit or character executes a move
action that ends with a model in base to base
contact with an objective marker currently not
in base to base contact with any enemy model,
you can check to see if it is the loot.
In order to check, the player rolls a D6:
• If there are currently three objective
markers on the table, on a roll of 5+, this is
the loot; you may remove the other two
objective markers. If not, remove this
marker, as this is not the loot.
• If there are currently two objective
markers on the table, on a roll of 4+, this is
the loot; remove the other objective
marker. If not, remove this marker, as this
is not the loot. The last objective is the loot,
and no other checks are required.
Once the loot is revealed and the other
objective markers are removed from the table,
the loot must be retrieved.
In order to retrieve a loot counter, a model of
needs to be in contact with the counter while
no other enemies are in contact with it and
execute two ready actions during the same
activation. Once retrieved, place the counter
next to a model on the unit that retrieved it.
If the unit attempting to retrieve the counter
has the Mounted trait, it must execute three
ready actions within the same activation
rather than one; assuming that some of the
soldiers must dismount, taking extra time.
In all cases the ready actions must be within
the same activation, so if they don’t have
enough actions or if the activation is
interrupted by the enemy, the unit will need to
attempt it again on a following activation.
CLASH of Spears
At the start of any activation, a unit can drop
the loot, leave the token where it is currently,
and move the model that is next to it just a bit
so that it is no longer in contact with it.
Any unit/character in contact with a dropped
loot token can pick it up by performing a single
ready action, as long as no enemy models are
in base to base contact with it.
If a unit carrying the loot is removed from the
table, leave the loot token where it was, and
just as above, a unit or character will need to
spend a ready action to pick it up.
10.53 Victory conditions
At the end of every turn count break points
and apply the following.
If a side currently is in possession of the loot
token then the enemy adds +1 to the number
of current break points.
If the unit/character carrying the token is
within 12” of its own table edge, then the
enemy accumulates another +1 to the number
of break points for a total of +2. As usual a unit
is within 12” of the table side if at least one of
the models is within 12”. Of course, this only
applies while the condition is fulfilled and is
lost if the loot token is dropped.
The game ends when the final turn is finished,
as per the variable game length rules, when a
side breaks or when a side has the unit
carrying the loot token exit through their own
table side.
A side wins a major victory if the enemy
breaks or if they managed to get the loot token
across their table side. If not, count break
points and the side with less break point win a
major victory. If both sides accumulate the
same number of break points, the side with the
loot token wins a minor victory. In any other
case the result is a bloody draw.

11.1 Building a Warband for CLASH
When building a force for CLASH, players are
given a lot more leeway than when building
armies for large battles, where you would have
to observe the historical proportions of troop
types.
The reason for this is that in these small
engagements that we envision, one could
encounter very diverse forces or very uniform
warbands.
You could be facing a force mostly made of
mounted troops that are out scouting, a
selection of skirmishing troops that are
scavenging, a select group of seasoned
warriors out on a specific mission, etc.
In order to accommodate this flexibility while
providing some interesting trade-offs when
you build your army, we’ve come up with two
alternative options for designing your force:
the “muster” warband and the “ad-hoc”
warband.
To understand these two alternatives, we first
need to introduce the concept of troop
availability.
In the army lists, you will find that troops are
classified according to one of three level of
availability
• Civis: These troops form the bulk of the
army. They include recruits, levies,
standard troops, etc. In most cases warfare
is a part-time job for these troops, and in
times of peace they tend to revert to
civilian duties.
• Milites: These troops are more dedicated
soldiers; they might be professional
soldiers, mercenaries, etc. In general, they
are warriors that see warfare as a more
common aspect of life. The warlord trusts
these troops to provide the core of the
army and be ready to withstand the stress
of battle better.
116 CLASH of Spears
• Rare: These troops might not be rare per
se in the army, but it is rare to see them in
small engagements. They tend to be the
elite of the army, and most of the time they
would not be asked to participate in these
small skirmishes unless the warlord has a
specific reason to include them.
11.11 The muster warband
This force is mustered from the general
selection of troops available to the army. The
force is summoned under a general situation
of stress or emergency when the warlord
simply calls in readily available troops to
quickly gather and be ready to enter battle.
When building a muster warband, the number
of models in your force coming from units that
are identified in the availability column of the
army list as Civis has to match or exceed the
sum of the Milities and Rare models.
In addition to the prior restriction, the number
of models identified in the availability section
as Rare can never exceed the number of
models in your force that are identified as
Milites.
Character models are not counted toward
these calculations, only count your line models.
When a warlord is gathering a muster
warband, we consider that the mission at hand
is of considerable importance and that the
force will be willing to endure additional
sacrifices during the engagement. Because of
this, a force built in accordance to the “muster”
rules described above will always ignore a
break result on their first test of the game.
The first time the warband is called to take a
force break test, if you roll two failures, which
would normally mean that the force breaks,
the muster warband does not break and
instead continues to fight.

11.3 Allies and Mercenaries
When selecting your force, you must always
choose one army list that will indicate the
troops that are available to you and that
represent the specific nation that you have
chosen to take into battle.
On many occasions nations intergrated allied
troops among their own troops, and these
troops would be willing to follow the lead of
that nation’s officers. Iberians in Carthaginian
service are a good example of this.
When that is the case, those allied troops will
be available in the core list of your army, and
you will notice that the Allies trait has been
added to their profile.
Other times, full allied contingents would be
serving along the army of another nation, such
as the Latin allies in Roman service.
Each nation will identify which other nations
that can be considered close allies.
You are free to purchase troops from any one
other list. This can come from a close allies list
or from any other list.
When selecting troops from a close allies list,
in order for your force to be considered a
muster force, the allied troops must
themselves observe the muster force
restrictions.
This means that the number of Milites plus
Rare models from that force cannot exceed the
number of Civis; and Rare models cannot
exceed Milites models in that force, just as for
your core force.
Because they are close allies, your characters
will be able to command those troops just as
they command your core troops.
You are free to choose allies from any other list!
At this scale of engagement, it would not be
uncommon to find small units of allies or
mercenaries that belong to other nations.
CLASH of Spears
In a large battle, you would need to find
historical accounts for this. For example, we
know that Numidians fought as allies of both
Romans and Carthaginians at various times in
during the Punic Wars.
Yet at the smaller scale of CLASH, it is easy to
imagine small groups of warriors that might
have temporarily switched sides or that have
been lured by the promise of wealth and other
benefits.
In order for your force to be considered a
muster force, when purchasing allies from a
nation that is not one of your close allies, those
allies must observe the muster restrictions
among their own contingent in the same way
as when you purchase close allies.
Because these troops are not close allies of
yours, any time one of your characters wants
to activate an allied unit or have an allied unit
react, they must spend an additional CP on top
of the normal required number of CPs.
You may buy characters for that allied force;
they will command them normally, but the
same extra CP requirement will apply when
the characters from the allied force try to
activate a unit from your core force or have a
unit from your core force react.
In every case when you hire any troops from
any other nation’s list, these troops gain the
trait allies when they join your force.
These restrictions might seem tough, but it
could be worth paying that price just to have a
colorful and interesting Carthaginian warband
that has actually convinced a disgruntled party
of Roman legionnaires to join them in battle.
These kinds of things were certainly not
uncommon, and when we move away from the
main battles and enter the realm of the small
day-to-day encounters that fill the times
between major events, we can find plenty of
historical examples. And let’s face it, those are
LOTS OF FUN TO PLAY!

™‹ŽŽ ‘˜‡”™‹–Š‘—”ƒ”›Ž‹•–•Ǥ



 ‘ˆ’‡ƒ”• ͳʹͳ

Fourth Century BC
During this century Sicily saw continuous war
between the Carthaginians and the Greek
colonies of Magna Graecia for control over the
island.
In the Italian peninsula, the century opens up
with the Gauls descending from the north and
sacking the city of Rome, 390 BC. However,
Rome soon recovers and becomes a leading
member of the Latin League of Nations and
goes to war against the Samnites in 343 BC.
This war is followed by an open war between
Rome and the other Latin nations in 340 BC
and the dissolution of the Latin league. Rome
goes to war against the Samnites again from
326 to 304 BC, and the wars extend into the
next century with the final war against the
Samnites, and final Roman victory, taking
place from 298 to 290 BC.
In this century, we see the first expedition of
troops from Epirus in 334 BC. Under
Alexander I of Epirus, a.k.a. Alexander
Molossus, the armies of Epirus reach Southern
Italy to support the Greek colony of Tarentum
in its war against the local hill tribes such as
Lucanians, Bruttii, Samnites, and others. The
expedition ends tragically when Alexander I,
who incidentally was an uncle of Alexander
the Great and an uncle of Pyrrhus of Epirus, is
defeated and killed at the battle of Pandosia,
331 BC.
Third Century BC
In this century, we see some of the most
renowned conflicts of the period, The Punic
Wars, but there are many other interesting
conflicts as well.
We open up the century with a new expedition
from the armies of Epirus. Once again, the
Greek colonies in southern Italy seek help
from their eastern allies. Threatened by the
122 CLASH of Spears
expanding Roman sphere of influence,
Tarentum asks Pyrrhus the famed King of
Epirus to help them in their inevitable conflict
with Rome. Pyrrhus fights in support of the
Greeks in Italy and in Sicily against both
Romans and Carthaginians, who even form an
alliance against him. Eventually his campaign
is brought to an end at the battle of
Beneventum, 275 BC, after which he can no
longer sustain his operation in the west and is
forced to return to Epirus.
In 288 BC, the Italian Mamertines, who had
been serving as mercenaries in the payroll of
Syracuse, decide to occupy the city of Messana.
As the Mamertines start raiding the
neighboring regions, Syracuse takes military
action against them, and the Mamertines send
requests for help to both Rome and Carthage.
This eventually leads to a power struggle
between the two nations, and thus starts the
first Punic War, 264 to 241 BC.
In 240 BC, Carthage faces a war against the
former mercenaries that they had hired over
the previous years. Many of these mercenaries
backed by Libyan tribes start an uprising, and
it falls to Hamilcar Barca, father of the famous
Hannibal, to defeat them in 237 BC.
After their victory in the First Punic War,
Rome decides to expand to the North and
successfully occupies Cisalpine Gaul in 220 BC.
In the meantime, Carthage had continued to
expand their colonies in Spain to offset their
territorial losses from the first Punic war. In
219 BC, Hannibal conquers the city of
Saguntum, thus starting the Second Punic War.
Probably one of the most famous conflicts of
the period, this is the war in which Hannibal
crosses the Alps with his army and repeatedly
defeats the Romans in Italy. Rome does not
yield and eventually sends an expedition
directly to Carthage in northern Africa.
Hannibal returns to defend the motherland

12.3 The Gallic Tribes
By the fourth century BC, the Celtic tribes that
had originated in central Europe had greatly
expanded, having reached Spain, France, and
other areas of the continent.
In their expansion, some of these tribes had
crossed the Alps and moved over Italy.
The Romans referred to these Celtic tribes as
Galli, the Gauls. As they entered into the
northern regions of Italy, they would
immediately clash with the Etruscans and
other local Italian nations, even reaching and
sacking Rome in 390 BC.
The ferocious, warlike nature of these large
warriors made quite an impact on the Italians.
Over time the many tribes that arrived, such as
the Boii, the Senones, and others, settled in the
northern region of Italy, which became known
as Cisalpine Gaul.
It would be a mistake to disregard the Gallic
culture as unsophisticated and primitive. In
fact, on many occasions, the Gauls were able to
demonstrate great prowess and organization
in battle.
An interesting aspect of Gallic warfare was
that even at this later time, we have good
accounts of the use of light chariots in battle
(for example, at the battle of Sentinum in
295BC or Telamon in 225BC), and this is why
we have chosen to provide that option in the
lists.
At times the settled Gallic tribes fought as
allies with other nations against Rome, like
during the Samnite and Italian wars, or when
they joined the army of Hannibal as allies
during the Second Punic War.
128 CLASH of Spears
Of course, the tribal nature of the nation also
means that with CLASH, you can easily
represent small conflicts between neighboring
Gauls, even during times of peace.
The many Gallic tribes did share some
common warfare characteristics, such as the
development of superior chain mail armor and
the use of heavy javelins before joining melee
with their long swords.
Nevertheless, some differentiation must be
made between most of those tribes that settled
in lowland regions and were used to fighting
in extensions of open terrain versus tribes
such as the Ligurians, which settled among the
hills and would favor tactical ambushes and
fighting in rough terrain.
You will notice that those Gauls used to
fighting in the open fields of the lowlands will
tend toward traits that benefit from using
close order, such as Shield Overlap and similar.
On the other hand, the Ligurians, those used to
fight in the hills and in rough terrain, will favor
traits such as Guerrilla.
When you select your army, you will choose
one of those types, lowland Gallic tribes or
Ligurian hill tribes, but of course it would not
be uncommon for many tribes to join together
in larger armies.
Although it is possible Ligurians were nor of
Celtic origin, still their fusion with neighboring
Celtic tribes resulted them sharing many
similarities with Gauls by the fourth century
BC, and that is why we have chosen to include
them here.

12.4 The Greek Colonies
During the eighth and seventh centuries BC,
the Greeks began to settle in southern Italy
and then expanded to Sicily. This region
became known as Magna Graecia, greater
Greece
With time these colonies became very rich,
such as Syracuse, Akragas, Tarentum, Rhegion,
and others.
These Greeks had to fight different enemies at
different times. They would fight the local
Italian tribes in southern Italy, the
Carthaginians in Sicily, and of course
eventually, they had to face the expanding
influence of Rome.
The Greco Punic Wars that lasted all the way
from the early fifth century BC to the third
century BC are conflicts of particular interest,
as they provide multiples opportunities from
interesting interactions between Greek armies
and other nations in the region.
At some point the Greeks even endeavored to
conduct an expedition to northern Africa
under the command of Agathocles, tyrant of
CLASH of Spears
Syracuse, in 310 BC, to try to divert the
pressure of the Carthaginian army that had
sieged Syracuse.
Of course, the Greek colonies retained the
traditional warfare doctrine of ancient Greece,
but at times they added their own style, such
as the development of effective cavalry or the
adoption of mixed role troops such as
mercenary thureophoroi.
In addition to this, the Greek colonies would
sometimes resort to the use of mercenaries
from the region. They would also request help
from the motherland, such as when they
reached out to the kingdom of Epirus at
different times asking for support in their
ongoing conflicts with other nations.
The citizen hoplites constitute the building
block of these armies, and you will see that we
have identified a couple of variants to provide
some minor differentiation among the Greek
armies in Sicily and Italy.

12.7 The Roman Republic
Rome was founded in 753 BC. During the years
leading up to the period covered in our rules,
Rome was simply one more of the many city-
states that were developing all over Italy.
During those times the Etruscan nation had
become the dominant power and had come to
control an extensive territory reaching all the
way to Campania.
However, by the fourth century BC, the
Romans had gained their independence after
expulsing the Etruscan kings that ruled them
before, and they were ready to start their own
bid for power in the region.
The Romans were keen on learning from their
interactions with other nations and cultures;
thus, their fighting style adjusted over time to
match the styles that they had seen to be more
effective during their different military
conflicts.
The Roman army that we represent in this list
reflects the organization of the Roman army
after the military reforms of Camillus. This
Roman army would form up in battle in three
lines.
The first line conformed by less wealthy
citizens would be the hastati, usually younger
and less able to acquire significant armor.
The second line were the principes, men in the
prime of their life and usually wealthy enough
to be able to have good armor.
Finally, the third line would be the triarii. They
were the older and wealthier citizens. Being
the third line of battle, they would only engage
with the enemy when the situation was dire
and the prior to lines had broken.
These legionnaires where organized into
maniples of 120 men, or 60 in the case of the
142 CLASH of Spears
triarii, and they were supported by light
troops coming from the lower class, the leves
and velites.
The poor class would also form supporting
ranks classified as accensi and rorarii that
could have provided reserves to act as
supernumeraries. We will not include these in
the army, as we will consider that a few of
those supporting troops always follow the
main forces and are abstracted into the
general mechanics of the game that don’t aim
to detail these specific supporting roles.
Another characteristic of this Roman army
was the progressive adoption of the pilum, a
heavy form of javelin, by the legionnaires.
This style of warfare, adopted at some point
during the Samnite wars, differs from the
older Hellenistic style of warfare based on the
hoplite and phalanx.
The Hellenistic style of warfare was
nevertheless retained by many of the other
Italian nations, and hence if you want to build
a Roman army that is actually prior to this
mid-republican Roman army, you can simply
use the lists corresponding to the other Italian
tribes such as the Etruscans or Campanians.
Wealthy citizens would also join the cavalry
corps of the Roman army known as the equites,
which in large battles generally did not
perform well; yet in skirmish encounters, you
may still find good use for them.
In addition, the Roman army was
supplemented by allied legions formed and
organized in the same manner already
outlined, as well as some allied troops still
fighting in their preferred fighting style that
could well be of use for raids and small actions,
such as the ones represented by CLASH.

12.9 Pyrrhus Expedition to the West
The Greek colonization of the west was no
easy task. In fact, in their struggle with the
local nations and even with the other fellow
Greeks, the different colonies sometimes
called for help from the motherland.
In some instances, this help was provided by
the originating cities such Sparta or Athens,
and for the time being, the Greek colonies list
should be enough to include those events until
a further supplement detailing those armies is
released.
However, a few times, the call for help from the
city of Tarentum was answered by the
Molossians, who were the more Hellenized
nation in the region of Epirus.
The Molossians had adopted the military style
of the Macedonians due to the interactions
that they had with that dominant kingdom.
The first Molossian expedition took place in
334 BC, when Tarentum requested help in
their struggle against local Italian tribes. This
expedition was led by Alexander I of Epirus,
Alexander the Molossian, who was uncle of
Alexander the Great and of Pyrrhus.
Despite initial success, the expedition was ill-
fated, and Alexander the Molossian died in
331BC at the battle of Pandosia.
Years later, in 281 BC, a new request for help
was sent by the Greeks of Tarentum as they
were facing the expanding reach of Rome.
Once again, this call was answered by Epirus,
this time under the command of the great
general Pyrrhus.
Pyrrhus marched to the west with a powerful
expedition force with the intention of unifying
the Hellenic nations in the west.
CLASH of Spears
Pyrrhus battled the Romans and was able to
defeat them at the battles of Heraclea in 280
BC and Asculum in 279 BC, yet his victories
were costly in manpower and resources, thus
giving name to the well-known expression “a
Pyrrhic victory.”
After this initial success, Pyrrhus turned his
eye to Sicily and aimed to help the Greek
struggle against Carthage; this in fact led to an
alliance between Rome and Carthage.
Again, he was militarily successful, yet once
again, his victories were costly. This cost was
too much for some of the Sicilian Greeks, who
started to turn on him just as he was planning
to follow with an expedition to northern Africa.
In the meantime, the Romans had renewed
their advance toward Tarentum, so Pyrrhus
decided to leave Sicily and go back to Italy.
Unfortunately for Pyrrhus, his attention to
Sicily had made him lose favor among many of
his previous supporters in southern Italy,
which meant that now he would find himself
considerably outnumbered against the
Romans.
In 275 BC he faced the Roman legions at the
battle of Beneventum and was defeated; that
ended his expedition, as he returned to Epirus,
losing all his gains in the west.
This list is based around the army of Pyrrhus
of Epirus and introduces some of the types of
units that would usually be encountered in
armies fighting in the Macedonian style.
This list can also be used for Alexander the
Molossian’s expedition, although in that case,
you should refrain from including any
elephants in your forces, as there are no
records of their use in that army.
