BATTLE PHASE MOVEMENT PHASE Each unit can move once per turn, a number of spaces up to it's Move score. Only one unit per hex. There is no stacking. BATTLE PHASE Each unit can make one attack per turn against a unit in it's attack range. For each attack roll a number of D6 equal to the attackers strength. Also roll a number of D6 equal to the defenders strength. If the Attacker's Strength Total is higher, the Defender is slain. Slain units are removed from play. Attacks are not combined.

SETUP The Giant forces will be lined up on one side of the map. The forces of good will be clustered around Valhalla. ODIN'S RULE (optional) If Odin & the Midgard Serpent are ever adjacent, they will automatically destroy each other. VICTORY CONDITIONS Everybody dies.
