Skirmish

The Skirmish section allows you to battle against computer controlled or other player in Multiplayer matches.

There are two types of Skirmish:
 * Exhibition: This mode allows you to fight against the computer or another player in a battle that has no consequences. Your warband will suffer no injuries and require no upkeep after the battle. However, no loot or gold will be collected and no experience will be gained. Taking part in an Exhibition battle does not take any in-game time.
 * Contest: This mode can only be played against other players. Your warband may acquire injuries and will incur treatment and upkeep costs. You will be able to keep any items you loot, however, if the enemy loots your items, you will lose them. Your warband will gain experience the same as in single player missions. Contest battles take one in-game day, so you will only be able to fight once without resting until the Next Day.

Selecting either of these modes will allow you to configure the battle parameters, such as whether units can backtrack without spending Strategy Points or whether there are Neutral Enemies on the map.
