If you attack armored enemy with Break Block, you will see pieces of armor being chipped away, and when all the armor is gone, your character will perform an exaggerated, wide swing that knocks the armor off the opponent - this is visually clued by enemy losing his helmet, cuirrass, etc. If performed against shielded enemy, the block is removed and the enemy is temporarily without defence, and can be attacked with X again. Shield-bearing enemies (empire pikemen and swordsmen) sometimes switch into blocking stance, which means they won't take any damage from standard attacks, and it's signalized in the same way, only the sound is a wooden 'thud'.Д«reak Guard - Enemy armor/block can be removed with the Break Block action, which is initiated by the B button. Some enemies have armor, which is signalized by metallic clanking sound, bluish glow around the target, and sometimes with 'B' prompt.

Most enemies do not perform any blocks or dodges, so attacks mean usually free hits. Targets are chosen semi-automatically, that means the one you are facing is preferred, but sometimes you can hit unintended tartgets. You don't have to worry about ranging, because you are always 'slided' into range by the game. You dodge-roll with the A button, and if you hold the A button, your character will start running - not very useful, since there is a delay, and running is not faster than rolling.ДЄttacking - Standard weapon attack is executed with the X button.

Luckily, positioning does not matter much in this game, and off-screen attacks are always telegraphed with prompts. Unlike in Dark Souls or Nioh, this game has a fixed angle camera, which sometimes creates problems with enemy visibility. Movement and camera - you move with left analogue stick, and you can slightly shift the camera with the right stick (not very useful). I presume you are using a XBOX style gamepad (the prefered device for games of this type, IMO), if you don't, please refer to your control scheme to proper KB+M equivalents. I have spent enough time with the game to get a firm grasp on most things, however feel free to correct me where I am wrong.

There's also a $5 DLC that adds more modifiers/cards/campaigns that will probably be $1 or less in the upcoming Steam sale.In this thread, I would like to summarize basic combat rules and oddities for beginning players - I feel that the lack of proper manual justifies such summary. Seems like there's a dozen or so 'story' missions and then a random/endless mode with a ton of modifiers from different cards you can put in your deck. You'll have to play on hard to get a challenge, though, as I found the first few levels on normal were a cake walk where you have an abundance of gold and food (think fuel in FTL). Sort of reminds me of FTL in that aspect. You'll land on a space/card, and depending on how you do on an encounter it could unlock another card which paves the way for more monsters/loot/card/items/etc. Nothing amazing but I find the combat fun enough and the card system/writing is pretty solid. It's sort of a hybrid of Binding of Isaac (random rooms but cards in this case), Talisman (in terms of a board game with events and decisions), with Batman AA style combat (attack/counter with a few extra things thrown in). Picked this up in the current Humble Bundle and apparently there's a sequel coming in 6-8 months (Early 2017).

Couldn't find a thread about this or maybe I was just too lazy.
