Anyone familiar with the HOLD THE LINE system will quickly pick up the changes.

DETERMINE ACTION POINTS (AP): In each scenario each side in a turn is given a set number of action points (normally 3 to 5), and then roll a die to receive a random number from 1 to 3 of additional action points.

SIDE A PERFORMS ACTIONS: The currently active player spends up to his total action points performing the following actions with individual units. Each unit must complete it's action before the next unit begins it's actions:

1 AP - Activate a unit to move up to its movement allowance
1 AP - Move or attack using 2 adjacent Coastal Raider units
1 AP - Attack an adjacent unit
1 AP - Leaders may rally 1 hit on a unit they are stacked with
2 AP - Cavalry type units may perform a cavalry charge against non-adjacent enemy units
2 AP - Gesith infantry units may move 1 hex and attack enemy units
2 AP - Berserkers may perform a berserker charge
2 AP - Pictish Chieftains may cavalry charge enemy infantry type units only
After Side A spends all of the Action Points he has available, or passes, then Side B Performs Actions.

After Side B spends all of the Action Points he has available, or passes, the Victory is checked. If neither side has won a victory, and it is not the last turn of the game, then a new turn begins.

Some of the highlighted system changes are:

Greater unit differentiation in hit/combat ability
Special Leader Abilities
Coastal Raiders group movement and combat
Berserkers
Cavalry Charges
3 Armies - Romano-British/ Saxons/ Picts
Optional Rules for Merlin and Morganna with special magical abilities

Victory is determined by eliminating opposing units and capturing terrain
