are left in reserve. Units you wish to deploy have their dice placed in the order dice bag.

deployed wholly within 12” of their table edge.
Reserves may only enter from the player’s own table edge – no outflanking is allowed.

The objective is to break through the enemy lines and get as many units into the
opponent’s deployment zone as possible.

table in the normal manner.
GAME DURATION:
The game lasts for 6 turns. At the end of turn 6 a player rolls a die. If the result is 4, 5 or 6
then the game continues or 1 more turn. On a 1,2 or 3 then the game ends.
VICTORY:
At the end of the game, players score:
• 1 victory point for each unit in the opponent half of the table, or
• 3 victory points for each unit in the opponent deployment zone.
A unit must have more than 50% of its models in an ‘area’ to get the points.
• 1 victory point for each order die your opponent has lost.
