How to play ‘Orrible Little Men:
Part 1: What you need to play
You will need:
- a tape measure in inches
- some regular 6-sided dice
- an army (the Elven army shown here is an average 60 point army)
- a table and some model terrain

Part 2: starting army morale & initiative
Starting army morale is calculated by dividing the army points value by 10, so a regular 60-point army would have a starting army morale of 6.
Both players then roll a D6, on a result of 4+ their army morale value is increased by 1.
In order to determine initiative, both players roll a D6 at the start of each turn.
The player that rolls higher than the other gets to decide if they wish to take the initiative for the turn or give it to their opponent. If the rolls are equal then a random event occurs!
