Notes[]
- If an opposing hero has a lower Tactics skill, the hero's skill is lowered by the number of points in the opposing hero's skill - a hero with expert Tactics facing a hero with basic Tactics will only be able to move his forces as if he had advanced Tactics.
- If the opposing hero has a higher skill, or they are at the same skill level, the hero won't be able to rearrange their forces at all.
