Editing Kingdoms: Summer - War (section)

=Assigning War Defences=

When the '''Summer Campaign''' is revealed,  the defending players are made aware of who the ''Attack Commander'' and the ''Attack Armies'' are.

The defending King can then decide whether to mount a '''War Defence''' or not. Each '''War Defence''' must consist of '''exactly one War Commander''' (any back row piece), and '''at least one Army'''.
<br><br>
==Unopposed Campaigns==

If no '''War Defence''' is organised, then the '''Summer Campaign''' achieves its Objective without any resistance.
<br><br>
==Defence Strength==

The '''Defence Strength''' of a ''War Defence'' is equal to the totalled '''Battle Rating''' of all the armies assigned to it, plus the '''Sorcery''', '''Protection''' or '''Dreaming''' attribute of its Attack Commander.

Note that the '''Warcraft''' and '''Intrigue''' attributes ''do not'' add to '''Defence Strength''' of ''War Defences''. While Knights and Bishops can coordinate a ''War Defence'', they add nothing to it's strength.
<br><br>

==Resolving Battles==

When a '''Summer Campaign''' meets a '''War Defence''', battle occurs. This is resolved by a single D6 roll, which the Attacker rolls.

If Attack Strength is greater than Defence Strength, add +1 to the roll.
If Attack Strength is equal or more than twice Defence Strength, add a further +1 to the roll.

If Defence Strength is greater than Attack Strength, deduct -1 from the roll.
If Defence Strength is equal or more than twice Attack Strength, deduct a further -1 to the roll.

* '''0 or Less: Atackers routed.''' All attacking armies are broken, and the Attack Commander is Captured.
