Squad spell

Using Spells

Typically, spells are cast by expending a squad's action and the spell's cost in MP. The target of a spell must be at least partially visible to a unit in the casting squad, and within the spell's range. Many spells grant a number of keyword tokens. Like other tokens granted by abilities, these tokens are removed, one per type, at the start of each round, and tokens of the same type but a different bonus do not stack, with only the highest among them being counted.

A spell which in its description describes itself as an attack spell is rolled as the given die type, and the defending squad rolls a single die of their defense stat. If the caster's result is higher, the spell's other effects occur.
