== STATS AND THEIR PURPOSES ==
Different units have different statistics. However, they all collectively share some basic traits: Hit Points (Shortened to HP) which determines how much damage a unit can take before it dies, Ranged Ability (Shortened to RA) which determines how good a unit is with ranged weapons, Melee Ability (Shortened to MA) which determines how good a unit is with melee weapons, and Defense (Shortened to D) which determines how good a unit is by resisting damage. d20s are used when rolling checks that involve these stats. 

Weapons also have their own statistics, though they are simpler than unit statistics. They are Range (R), Ranged Damage (RD), and Melee Damage (MD). Range shows the range of a weapon, shown in inches. A bow, for example, might have a range of 10, meaning it can only fire at enemies that are ten inches away or less. Melee weapons do not have a range, and can only attack enemies that their models are touching. Ranged Damage and Melee Damage both refer to the weapon’s damage in close and long range. Using the example of a bow, a bow might deal 1d6+2 Ranged Damage, meaning it does one 6 sided die of damage when landing a ranged attack. It might also deal 1d6-1 Melee Damage, meaning it deals one 6 sided die minus one damage when landing a melee attack. 


As an example, say an Rifleman was to shoot his rifle at a nearby enemy Knight, making a Ranged Ability Check. If the Rifleman had an RA of 10, he would need to roll a twenty sided die (d20). If he received a roll of 10 or higher, the attack would hit. The Rifleman would then need to roll to see if the attack penetrated the Knight’s armor. If the Knight has a D of 14, the Rifleman would roll a d20. If the result was 14 or higher, the attack hits, and the Rifleman would then roll damage, subtracting the damage roll’s result from the enemy unit’s HP. Once a unit loses all of its HP, it is destroyed.
