Gisela Open Rules & Regulations

[Lye]

I have a question, Lye.

The winner of myself versus Kitsune will face Storm in the semis. Storm will, of course, have a full and fresh army at his disposal whilst one of our own armies will inevitably be reduced due to battle. What happens to balance out that disadvantage, if anything?

The rules cover post match recruitment up to 1,000 units. If your armies suffer losses larger than this, it would continue to the next match regardless, potentially putting you against a full roster. Whereas he may have the numbers, you would have experience and a clearly established backstory for the continuation of your army, setting you up far stronger story-wise than he. Having reduced numbers also leaves you open to more potential avenues to exploit strategic usage of remaining troops. Since strategy and story are far more important than numbers when determining the winner, it can be argued that both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages. It could also go to say you have a slight edge since you know who you'd facing next round, while the others, including Storm, doesn't.

In short, Storm will be entitled to his whole army.
