Please bring appropriate terrain for your chosen army, as dictated by their terrain type. We will use the standard Deployment rules from page 8 of the rulebook.
Players will field the same 12 elements of their chosen army each round, and individual terrain pieces may be chosen by the defender at the beginning of each round after both players’ armies have been revealed. Camps that do not have camp followers or are not garrisoned by one of your army’s 12 elements will be considered undefended.
