Participants are expected to schedule and play out battles with opponents at least once every two weeks in order to progress the campaign. Players will mark the positions of their fortifications, army positions and territories on the giant wall-mounted map with figures of varying sorts. The goal ultimately being to conquer their way across the map and control the most territory, not unlike real world war campaigns.
