Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

[Doug]

If you print the form out on heavy cardstock, it can be folded into a
"tent" so that both players can see their own orders at all times.
Might help focus their attention on the issue.

>At the start of each game:
>1) Orders will be written down as per 4.22 on a card provided by the umpire.
>2) Said card will be placed face down on the table where both sides
>can see it.
>3) At the start of Bound 3, each side's Order Card will be flipped
>face up so that orders can be seen.
>4)If orders are changed, the player will write that on the Order
>Card and then place the card face DOWN on the table.
>5) On the bound AFTER the new order goes into effect, the card
>flipped face up so that orders can be seen.
>Repeat 4 and 5 as needed.
>
>I want to do this because we find people not quite following their
>orders directly. This
>isn't from cheating, it is from inattention or mistake and it
>happens more often than you think.
>
>Having to officially write orders down on a card, which will be revealed to
>the opponent, makes everybody pay more attention to orders...and hopefully
>will wash out most of the mistakes.
>
>Did I mention this is a NASAMW initiative? It's a tournament rule,
>nothing more.

Under 14.3, yes you do.

There was a lot of trouble 'back in the day'. Let's leave it there.

>Good idea but how does the "tent" really "hide" the orders from the other guy?
I mean yeah, it would be kinda cheesy to bend over the table and peek but
something could inadvertently occur.

>I'm gonna try it with the card placed faced down. I think that card out there
should be focus enough. Plus, players don't "forget" their orders, they simply
forget how they are implemented vis a vis how many units moved, are within X of
the enemy, etc.

What about terrain choices? Does Warrior still do it the way 7th did? I recall
back then someone doing a bit of "creative writing" after he saw some of his
opponent's choices.

>In it's most basic way, yes. However, certain things have been limited (like
roads) and other things enlarged (open spaces are now a bit larger).

>I see all kinds of varied terrain in all the games I play.

I was asking if you record your terrain choices before you see your opponent's.
Back in the day, one player always seemed to have a lot of cross outs on the
paper he wrote his terrain choices on.

>Ah, that is correct. Both sides should record their terrain choices in
writing.
