Up to 6 counters can be discarded from the reserve before any roll bound to the INI, ATT, DEF, STR or RES of a friendly fighter/Independent of the same people as the bearer and standing within 50 cm or less of him.

The Gae Bolga

The Gae Bolga is a mythical weapon that was said to belong to Cernunnos himself. It is a spear with long, sharp flint points. The wounds caused by this weapon when the Hunter removes it from his victim’s body are devastating. Today, the Gae Bolga is owned by the Young Horned One and only he has the privilege to use it in battle.

If Tanath misses or kills his target in the Firing phase, the Gae Bolga returns to his hand by itself. If, on the other hand, the Gae Bolga inflicts a Wound during the Shooting phase, it remains in the target. Place a marker on the figure.

As soon as Tanath comes into base-to-base contact with this figure, he rips out the Gae Bolga, causing a new Strength 12 Wound in the same location as the first one. Roll two dice for damage but do not change the location of the second Wound. Tanath cannot fire again until he recovers his magical spear.

Only Tanath can pull the Gae Bolga from the victim.
