----- BUILDING ARMIES -----

Before battle commences players agree upon army point values and build their armies from their preferred lists and describe Units on Unit Cards or similar. Both players should bring appropriate miniatures, dice, rulers, etc.

WARBAND > 1000 point follow the army lists.

SKIRMISH <= 1000 point

Armies need not have a general; instead, they can use one of their leadership marked characters. Each round, the Leader roll a D6A to determine command points.

 

----- SETTING UP GAME AND ARMIES -----

1. Players set up the terrain (140 cm wide and 120 cm deep)
2. Roll to determine Showup initiative (SI); The winner (SIW) picks table side.
3. Starting with (SI) looser, Players place (D6A) of their Unit Cards (UC) face down according to deployment rules. Continue this till all UC's are deployed.
4. SI looser (SIL) rolls a D6A (2-5) to see how many units, beginning with SIL, each reveal & toggle (R&T) at a time, until all UC'S are R&T'ed.
5. UC's are then swapped for models, facing and centred as the card.
6. If using Magic, Player(s) roll for Shards.

 

----- PLAYING A GAME -----

A game consist of 5 Rounds, each with one or more Phases.

Round X;

1. Unit Type Chits (UTC) for a player’s existing Units are prepared for picking by placing them face up.
2. Order Activation Tokens (OAT) are distributed.

Phase X;

1. Determine Phase Activation Initiative (PAI)
2. PAI winner (PAIW) roll D6A to see how many UTC to be picked this Phase
3. PAIW decides to activate UTC's as rolled for picking, or hand over initiative.
4. When all currently picked UTC are used, the Phase ends
5. If any Player still have unactivated UTC, another Phase is taken

When all UTC's are picked and activated, the Round ends and UTC's matching Units still existing are placed for another round.

If a Unit lost its last Model, one of that units Chit Types are removed. (a used one if it has been activated this round)

Melee, Shooting and Magic effects as well as Morale results are taken as soon as Units interact. Effects spreading as a result from these are applied throughout the battlefield.
