Phase I: Event chits and Reinforcements. Command cards.
Players must draw Event chits to find out what happens during the current turn. In addition, each side takes the «Command» cards.

Move and fight.
Phase III: Revolt Phase, which takes place at the end of the French player’s turn and is for both players.
Depending on the outcome of the events, and depending on the number of Spanish casualties or French soldiers, the revolt box is adjusted, which indicates the number of event cards that can be drawn from the deck for the next turn.
