9Defence · UI design rounds
The same two screens in every concept: build phase and battle playback, with the same copy and state. Static HTML, no game logic. v0 — thin slice marks anything not built yet.
Round 2 · A and C, with B's explicit lanes
Each lane sits directly between the rival's grid column above and yours below, labelled "Lane 1 · column 1". "2" is the modest version and "3" the fuller one.
A2 · Carved Board, aligned
The walnut board, wider, with each column carved as one groove from the rival grid through the lane to yours.

A3 · Carved Board, ornate
A2 plus carved-relief headers, inlaid faction crests, grained tiles, a parchment scroll, and small moving flourishes.

C2 · Island Storybook, aligned
The picture book with the sea as a map: three straight currents from each rival column to the same column of yours.

C3 · Island Storybook, illustrated
C2 plus palms, a ship and gulls on rolling waves, flowing currents, a thundercloud over one lane, and a storybook ending.
