2. ⚔️ Combat Mechanics: Deployment and Enemy Progression
- ✅ Combat takes place on several floors of your train. You deploy your units (NW for shield, Fel for DPS) taking into account the cost and the summoning limit per wagon.
- ✅ After the deployment phase, the enemies attack your monsters first. If they survive, they move up a floor until they reach the pyre on the 4th floor.
