[Dave Bailey] I think we're starting to stray into off topic areas but I was assuming that spirit combat was using mental and spiritual elements which all would have and therefore, whilst they can't make proper use of them, they should be able to affect the spirit. It may be that the untrained would only be able to drive off or evade the spirit.
How does spirit combat work, that's not a rules based question but a Glorantha world type query?
