As we get into the rule explanations here, the innards are lookin' like a healthy, juicy goat sacrifice! 👍 QUESTION: In actual games, would allocation of dice to the Command Board be done a secret, or if in the open, by one side first?
@toofatlardies

That's your choice. The rules recommend doing it openly at first, but as you get more accomplished doing it secretly can add something.

What Rich said! Doing it in secret can be fun, but having the Command Board made open is helpful when you start playing.

Thanks, this system looks really interesting but I'm not really a minis player. Can it be easily convert to board format (either squares or hexes) with counters if I'm willing to do some DIY?

Yes. Easily. I was also considering getting some cards made up with the units printed on them.

In truth, they’re not really ‘miniatures’, not unless you would consider grains of rice as miniatures. They’re perhaps best described as 2.5-D. You could probably make reasonably inoffensive units that would double for boardgames out of a cut-out layer of card stuck to a rectangular card base.

Actually they could be tokens, counters, or even replica Ancient coins instead of dice. Use whatever is at hand. We tend to use dice because that’s what we have to hand!
