Above the opponents are displayed their Life ratings. Above creatures, two parameters are displayed
as follows: Power/Toughness. Damage to a hero’s Life is displayed in red flashing numbers as it
occurs. A damaged creature’s Toughness is displayed in red.
There may be additional icons displayed above heroes and creatures, indicating their properties, current
state of the creature (resting or active), the effect of cast spells (e.g. Air Link), and the order in which
the creatures will act in attack and defense phases, including the blockers' action sequence (See
Appendices: Creatures' Abilities).

Commanding your creatures
To select a hero or creature, click on it. The selected character will be highlighted with a rotating
marker. To issue "attack" or "block" commands, select your creature and then click on an enemy hero
or creature. When the cursor is placed over a valid target, it changes to the “attack” cursor. Only the
enemy hero can be attacked, but all creatures attacking your hero can be targets for blocking.
To tell your creature to attack, double-click on it. If the creature has been sent to block an enemy
creature's attack, a shield with a number corresponding to the attacking creature's number will be
displayed. Your creature will move to the attack line. To cancel a command (prior to ending your
combat phase), click on the creature and it will return to its previous position.
When you block one enemy creature using several of your own, it can sometimes be important to set
the exact order in which they will block the attacker. Your creatures will block the opponent in the
order in which they moved to the attack line. If you need to change this order, call your creatures back
and then move them forward again in the desired order.
