Correct and correct. (What's your problem? There's only about a 100
messages in this thread.)

Each Team.

We were saying up to 10 with a minimum of 5, the formula being 10*Qty.
Personally, I hope each team creates 10. With 30 items out there, there
will be enough to make it interesting without having too many items
scattered on the board.

Correct

This is the current limit, pending feedback from some trials to ensure it's
not too high of a figure.

Correct, but just to clarify, if there is more than one enchantment (for
example 2 teams have enchanted the same object) then the 'random chart' is
consulted based on a roll to see what item is inside.

Correct and correct *and* a unit cannot possess more than one enchanted item
of the same type (such as a sword, helm, etc.). Any book of spells can only
be read by a magic user (that is to say some sort of wizard-like unit) and
multiple books can be collected.

Finally, something we can all agree on!
