Combate

Statistics

All units have the following statistics shown on their cards.

Symbol	Name	Meaning
<attack>	Attack	How much damage this unit will deal to another unit.
<defense>	Defense	Decreases the damage received from non-magical sources — damage received cannot be less than 0.
<health_points>	Health Points	How much damage this unit can receive, before being removed from Combat.
<initiative>	Initiative	How fast the unit is. Higher number means they'll get to activate sooner in Combat.

Damage

Also shown as <damage>.

Should a unit receive damage from any source, it will be subtracted from its health points directly. The defense value only reduces the attack value of the attacking unit, but not the damage received of the unit that is being attacked.

Obstacle

Any space that is occupied by a unit, an obstacle marker, a Wall or a Gate may not be stepped on. Flying units may move through these spaces, but their movement is not allowed to end in such a space.

Round

A combat round is a complete cycle of activations during Combat. At the start of a round, determine the order of activation for all participating units, usually by their <initiative> value from highest to lowest.

During a round, each eligible unit normally gains one activation in this order. When a unit activates, it may move and/or perform actions as allowed by the rules of the game. After all units that can act this round have taken their activation (or passed), the round ends.

When a new round begins, repeat the process of determining activation order if required by the scenario or rules. Some effects or abilities may last until the end of the current round or trigger at the start or end of a round.
