• Each team will nominate a single player to be the factions Warmaster for the event
• The Warmaster will make all tactical decision during the Strategic Phase.
• Each Warmaster will roll off to determine initiative, the winner be able to select both a player and a territory to invade. Their opponent then selects a player to oppose the invasion of that territory before reversing the roles and repeating until all players have been assigned a territory to invade.
• If a faction is fighting on a Secured territory they gain some sort of advantage?
• If a faction is fighting on their HQ territory they gain a big bonus?
• The winning factions captures the territory; if the captured territory is contact with that factions HQ or a territory which is than it is considered to be a secured territory and is represented by a Gold Token. If there is no connection to the HQ then the territory is considered unsecured and is represented by a Silver Token.
• If the loss of a territory results in other territories to be removed from the Secured network, those territories stop being secured and converted to unsecured. The loss of a factions HQ will immediately convert ALL territories that faction holds into Unsecured territories.
• A Faction may relocate their HQ during the consolidation phase of any turn in which their HQ was not captured. If a HQ territory was captured a new HQ territory must be selected but will not be fortified/secured until the following turns consolidation phase, at which point all connected territories will be secured and resources collected.
• Resources and Strategic Victory Point cannot be collected from territories which are unsecured, instead they accumulate in that territory each consolidation phase until they become Secured; to either Faction!
