The Marro pollutants from upriver in Bleakewood have gradually dissipated,
and the land of Anund is slowly returning to life. Small woodlands have
resurrected during the past decade, drinking in the snow-melt water and
growing despite the blood and wreckage winding downstream from the
highlands. These hopeful groves lie tranquil, unaware of the renewed war
which is poised to tear apart their fragile ecosystem before it fully recovers.

SETUP: Both players decide who will be player 1 and player 2. Player 1 is the
warband player, who builds and places a 450-point Army in the purple starting
?
zone. Player 2 is the ambush player, who builds and places a 300-point Army in
the orange starting zones. Place randomly chosen Glyphs facedown where shown 6
on the map (in the hexes marked with a “?”).

VICTORY: When the other player has no figures left on the battlefield, you win! At the end of round 6, if both Armies still have figures on the battlefield,
the warband calls for backup and player 1 wins the game.

SPECIAL RULES:

Ambush
Look alive, it’s an ambush! At the start of the first round, instead of rolling for Initiative, player 2 is given Initiative. Initiative is rolled for as normal after
this round.

Soul-Cairns
Before starting the game, place the six Glyphs shown on the map facedown. These Glyphs cannot be revealed.

At the start of each round after the first, after rolling for Initiative, player 2 may reveal the ‘X’ Order Marker on the Army Card of a Small or Medium
figure to return a previously destroyed figure from that card to the battlefield and place it on one of the face-down Glyphs. Then remove the Glyph the
figure was placed on. If the placed figure has a Life Value greater than 1, place Wound Markers onto its Army Card (or figure, if it is a Squad figure) until
until it has a number of Wound Markers equal to one less than its Life Value.

If any figure enters a space with a face-down Glyph on it, the figure ends its movement as normal, then removes that Glyph from the battlefield
immediately without revealing or activating it. Kicking over the Cairns appears highly destructive to their magic.
