They are available in the Griffin Spearmen Unit Box (8 figures) and the Confrontation Starter Set (8 figures). The name of the figure is Spearman. REACH If an opponent’s figure is within 2 spaces of a Cathar Spearman, and its base is no more than 3 levels above that Cathar Spearman’s height or 3 levels below that Cathar Spearman’s base, that Cathar Spearman may add 1 to his Range when attacking that figure. BRACED SPEAR 16 If an opponent’s figure moves adjacent to a previously unengaged Cathar Spearman, roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 16 or higher, the opponent’s figure receives one wound.

You probably want to add the clarification about Knockbacks, Throws, Shield Pushes, etc.

x2 Cathar Spearmen 150
x2 Redcoats 300 Marcus 400 AE 510 Sound like fun, anybody? |
Re: The Book of Cathar Spearmen
Nope. I'd go Cathar x4 or 10th x4. Mixing just doesn't work.

Re: The Book of Cathar Spearmen
Well, I was thinking of just throwing the Cathar out as a screen, seeing as they could hold the line pretty well, especially against opposing melee. Position the redcoats directly behind the spearmen and drop enemies as they approach.
It's a very defensive tactic, I know, and it would probably be best used in a defensive scenario. |

I would try Cathars with anti-range units. Allowing the spearmen to go toe-to-toe with melee is likely key to their success against tough armies. Cathar Spearmen x3- 225 Krav Maga Agents- 100 Marcus Decimus Gallus- 100 Marcu Esenwein- 20 Marro Warriors- 50 500 points, 21 hexes Send the Krav after the ranged units, then move the Cathar in to deal with the melee squads. |

Really, order markers in my army just get shared between the Cathars and Agents. |
