On the night we will start by battling 100 soldiers, across 8 fields, and 10,000 runs. The winner will be the one that wins the most fields over all 10,000 runs, i.e. a max score of 80,000. People might mess arund with other setups afterwards. Suggestions of weighted field values or more/less soldiers/fields
