I've just done this but I can't fully parse one clue - it looks obvious....

18a Guarantee to get organised after conflict, with time (7)

I've got 'warrant' but I don't get the 'get organised' bit - it's one of my blind spots!

Ran (organised) with t (time) after war (conflict)?

Yes, bernie, that was my parse but I didn't accept 'ran' for 'get organised'. Thanks for confirmation.

I think the definition is 'guarantee to get' (warrant)

Then as Bernie said.

Hi rambler, I think the get is being used as a placement indicator and organised = ran.

Cheers, shooty, I think your def is correct and the clue makes sense - thanks again, both.
