The Swiss portion will be four games; first 3 games will be in a pod of four players. After three swiss rounds, all 3-0 and 2-1 players will play the fourth swiss round. All four games will use the same map (or alternate map if multiple games from one box) layout. High die roll will be first player and gets choice of friendly map edge or country. Each game will last a maximum of 60 minutes. Different map layouts will be used in each round.
