-How to read a race/class/stat-
-???[?]- The letter inside [] denotes the first part of your group designation, this is followed by the letter from your Class, possibly with a number if there are multiple players as the same class
Units: This number shows how many Units there are in this Group. When all Units are downed, you are out for the rest of the battle.
Life: Amount of health each Unit in the Group have, it is adviced to keep track of individual HP. At 0, the Unit is defeated for the rest of the battle. At 0.5HP left, the Unit is unable to Act, but can be healed back to action.
Act: The number of actions each Unit in the Group can do each turn.
Mov: The amount of hexes the Group can move per turn.
Body: A general stat for all things physical
Mind: A general stat for all things magical
Weight: The limit of how much equipment a Unit can have
+???: This denotes an Action, which uses one or more Acts to perform
???(This denotes a passive bonus, sometimes with a clause of when/how it is active, but it never costs an Act to use)
=Explaining Things such as Rounds & Various Acts=
Rounds are broken down into Player, Neutral and Enemy Phases
Player Phase: Player units Move and Act

If the Attackers roll meets or exceeds the Defenders roll, the attack is successful and damage is dealt after modified by any applicable damage reduction.
Support/Misc Acts: Sometimes an action or a spell doess not have a Defender to roll against, and then the Unit rolls a 1d10 with appropriate modifiers, and must meet or exceed a result of 10 to be successful.
Overwatch: A player can spend Acts to perform Overwatch actions, such as attacking enemy units that come within range
Examine: Examines an object or creature/person, to try learning more about them.

-Magic Actions-
Draw Mana: The Unit uses an Act to draw an amount of Mana equal to 1+Mind, this Mana can either be held onto to cast a spell with, or fueled directly into an ongoing Ritual cast by a Unit in the Group. Max Mana a Unit can hold onto is the same as the amount they are able to Draw with one act.
