MOAB will be held over the NSW Labour Day weekend (5th - 7th October 2019). DBA is played on the Saturday and Sunday. You can play either or both days. Most players play both days. Each day starts at 9:00am with a briefing, and play starts shortly afterwards.
MOAB is held in the main building of the Sylvania Heights Community & Youth Club, in the Sylvania Heights reserve off Box Road, Sylvania Heights (southern Sydney). Motel accommodation is available nearby.

This campaign allows for any number of players. It will be played until the late afternoon, and with changing seating/setup, initiative, vassals, alliances, and gold for a variety of reasons. Lord of the Steppes will be different to and more challenging than most other campaigns.
