•Charge Phase
•Movement Phase
•Magic Phase

•Rally Phase
• Melee Phase
3 -After the Game . After both players have played six Player Turns, it is time to tally up the Victory Points and check who managed to win the Primary and Secondary Objectives to see who is the winner of the Game.

The Active Player is the one currently taking their Player Turn, and the Reactive Player is the one whose Player Turn is not currently happening.
The terms friendly and enemy are used to distinguish between units that belong to the same player (friendly units) and units controlled by opposing players (enemy units).
Is this your first game? Let’s get you started. First, prepare your battlefield: a large flat surface withmodel terrain on – a pile of books can be a hill, a mug can be a rock, a mouse pad can be a lake, and so on. Then, challenge a friend to a game where you both command your own miniature army.
For a trial run without the commitment of time and resources, we offer downloadable paper cutouts on the T9A website (address provided at the beginning of this book).
