The magic system is fun and interactive. Players alternate casting spells, which can take place at any point in the bound. A bidding war ensues with each player chipping in magic points to alter the die roll for success by a pip. Magic points are renewed at the beginning of each turn. I highly recommend rules for anyone who wants a system for simple, fantasy miniatures battles with a lot of flavor and variety to them.
Many armies have special abilities, and there are a multitude of troop types.
