Rules Release 1:
Characters & Stats
Every NFT in Kings of Kriptheim makes up a unique Tile. Each tile consists of characters, terrain, and various other attributes. These attributes carry specific "Stats"
Movement - M
The number of tiles your Warband can move on a turn.
Movement is a flat rate, and modified by the overall energy of the tile
Finesse - Fi
How skilled a warrior is with their weapons in close combat.
An attacker's Finesse is compared with the Finesse of the enemy unit to reach a minimum dice roll to hit.
Aim - Ai
How skilled a character is to land a projectile attack on an enemy.
A character's Aim directly correlates how easily a character can hit a target, after benefit modifiers +/- are applied due to Cover, movement & more.
Attacks - A
The # of strikes a character can make in a combat round.
One of the most important metrics to stack when fighting strong foes. This stat is modified by weapon type & certain character's modifiers.
Health Points - Hp
How many successful wounds a character can sustain until removal from the battlefield.
Health Points will be an essential Stat to stack when building multiple Warbands against seasoned enemies.
Savagery - S
How damaging a characters attacks are when they land successfully on an enemy.
Savagery of the attacker is directly compared to the Fortitude of the enemy unit to determine a dice roll required to wound in combat.
Fortitude - Fo
Impacts a characters ability to resist wounds and/or effects in battle.
Fortitude lets characters shake off damaging attacks from range, in combat, and due to other effects.
Energy - E
A measure of how quickly a character can take action/reaction, prior to & during combat.
One of the most under-utilized stats in most combats; a wise player will ensure they have characters with the ability to react quickly and get every opportunity to strike first.

Jarl - Ruling Elite
