  3. Battle Rules Overview

This section describes the rules used in battle. When an encounter results in a battle, it is played out on the battle map. Over the course of a session, battle map tiles are set up and disassembled for a variety of different battles. For this reason, it is strongly recommended to leave the center space of the play area open.
