How COA [Beta v1.0] Analyzes : 5. Territorial Domination
This element only involves the positioning of Pawns, to determine how much territory is legitimately claimed by either side.
Rules:
- Each square behind a Pawn is worth 1 point.
- Squares that Pawns sit upon are not included in the count.
- Squares that are attacked by other Pawns cannot be counted as part of the Territory claimed.
