Hi!

I think this is a good idea, I'd leave out the deploying at 60cm in favor of
letting the PDF setup the objectives as well as having some in their hands
at the games start. This would make most objective theirs or really close to
them for them to take, putting the onus on the opponent to take them from
the PDF.
