So, the time has come when my players will send their armies on their ships and they will sail to free Ilien from a three-month siege of pirate forces. I expect them to carry a good army, about 10 to 14 units.
How should I handle it, in your opinion?

  • I thought of using a larger table than the traditional 3x5 chessboard, maybe 10x10 or even 20x20, so there is more movement-
  • Should I join all player forces into an alliance and use only 1 reserve field?
  • Another idea I had is to break up the battle on several fronts, and then manage more battles as if they were two "situations" of the same clash.
  • Yes, I know there are a lot of better warfare systems than BR, but we spend a lot of time studying the 3.5e system so we'd like to play it a little before giving up


Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.
