Vexillum Minimus - formal announcement/Theme

Army list needs to be lodged by the closing date (see below). The list will be fixed (no swapping of optional elements between rounds). Each player must bring a fixed, legal terrain deployment for their army. All terrain pieces must be laid, if possible, by the defending player in any round.

Five rounds, initial match-up random, thereafter on a Swiss-Chess basis with all efforts made to avoid duplicated match-ups (fuddled brain of organiser excepted). Winner will be the player with the highest number of points (with ties broken by the number of enemy generals killed, NET elements killed, number of camps sacked, then throw of the dice). There will be prizes for at least the winner and runner-up (possibly more).
