Set-up
If the tables have been set up by the organiser, move straight to deployment. If the players are setting up the terrain, place and scatter terrain.
Deployment
Once the battlefield has been set up, the winner of a roll-off chooses their deployment zone (A1, A2, B1 or B2), as shown on the map below. If the winner of the roll-off selects a deployment zone marked 'A', then their opponent will use the opposite deployment zone, also marked 'A' If the winner of the roll-off selects a deployment zone marked 'B', then their opponent will use the opposite deployment zone, also marked 'B'. Once deployment zones have been chosen, the winner of this roll-off deploys the first unit. Players deploy their armies using the alternating units method.
