Tactical Skirmish Strategy Guide

The document describes a scenario for a skirmish battle. A scouting party led by the player must find and crush an enemy force before it can gather strength. Each army has a swift messenger to call for aid or report the battle. The battle will take place on a 4x4 terrain-filled table using the defender's terrain and weather. Victory will be determined by slaughter, withdrawal, ravaging the enemy, or comparing casualties after the final hour. Each army has a free messenger unit that can alert allies to the enemy and escape the board through the opponent's zones to score points.

Scenario 1: Scouting Party 

Rumour has reached your ear of an enemy force in the vicinity. Concerned about being discovered by the 
enemy, you have volunteered to lead a small expedition to find this force and crush them, before they are 
able to bring their men to bear! Your force has brought with them a swift‐footed messenger, in order to 
be able to better call for aid and bring your full might to bear! 
 
Recommended Battle size: 499 gold skirmish 
Battlefield: This battle should take place on a 4' x 4' table. Terrain must be placed per 3.3.4: Positioning 
Terrain rules. No Territory roll will be made for this game – the Defending Player's Kindred Terrain will 
be used. The Attacking player and defending player may each place one piece of Kindred Terrain – 
neither knows their opponent is there, and are not choosing their battlefield!

Positioning Fields: Both general's Positioning Fields are limited to Battle Line, Advance, Left Corner, 
Right Corner, Left Shoulder, or Right Shoulder. 
Victory Conditions: Determine Victory as normal, using section 4.3.2.1 to determine if one side is 
Slaughtered, Withdraws, is Ravaged, or by comparing the Butcher's Bill after the final hour.

is not considered Joined to it, and does not count against  
the General's Authority. His goal is to alert his kindred to the  
presence of the enemy! The Messenger may exit the board  
through a table edge in any of his opponent's  
Positioning Ground or Flanking Ground.

Either side earns +1 point for killing the opponent's
