Persian • Weapon • Polearm • Cavalry (1 Hand)

Etteham-e Sahmgin: Each time you take an action to move, you may choose for your next attack with this weapon this turn to be made at +0 and deal +1 damage.

Roughly four feet long, these light javelins often had throwing straps to increase their range and power. Cavalry often used a pair of palta as their main weapons, throwing one ans using the other for close combat.

Warrior Pack

Palta comes with the Mithradates VI the Great warrior pack.

 

From the QCT

I use Salah ad-Din's action while I have Palta in play. How many times is Palta's ability triggered?

•Palta's trigger, 'Each time you take an action to move,' is fulfilled exactly once by the use of Salah ad-Din. Palta doesn't care how many spaces you move - 1, 2, across the board, on your hands, moving to brooklyn to learn to rap in subway tunnels, or what color pants you are wearing when you do it.

•Salah ad-Din's trigger is 'taking an action' with the requirement that the action be used 'to move'. This happens once, so Palta triggers once.
