Armored Combat:Designated areas - Battlefield

Battlefield

1. A buffer zone needs to be provided between the edges of the battlefield and spectators at all times. This needs to be increased when combat archery and/or siege is included.
2. It should not be possible to hit a spectator, either with direct fire or with a bounced missile, so the marshal-in-charge must make sure there is sufficient distance to minimize the chances of deflected shots traveling into the spectators.
3. Physical barriers could eliminate the need for a buffer zone or lessen the distance needed.
