About the game

What is Clash of Spears: Rules for Skirmish Battles in Ancient Times

The game aims to provide a solid tactical combat system to represent raids, scouting and many other types of small actions.

The armies are made of line troops gathered in groups of 6-10 figures and a few characters that direct the action. Works with 28 or 15mm figures. Individually based figures are preferred, specific basing is not required.

The system is based on resource management, you have to manage the character command points to activate the units but more importantly you have to manage the fatigue on your units for them to be combat effective.
