Actions

Each face-up card on the field that you control can potentially perform one action per Event. Actions are performed at Slow Speed and can only be performed during the Event Phase, only when the stack is empty (similar to Summoning/Set on the Deployment Phase).

The set of possible actions each card can perform during a given Event is called their Action Pool, and is combined from three sources:

• the explicit Actions that are printed on the card;
• the Reorient action, which is always available to all creatures;
• the additional action granted by choice of Event (either March or Strike).

For example, a creature with "Action: March" could choose that action every Event. But a creature that does not have "Action: March" printed on it only gets to access the March action during a Campaign Event.

All creatures always have Reorient in their Action Pool, allowing them to rotate in place regardless of event choice.

Some effects, such as Pray or Conscript, are often printed as actions: a card with "Action: Pray" has Pray in its Action Pool, to choose instead of the regular March or Strike actions. The same effect may be printed as an activation instead, which is no action at all and is used as any activation is.

A player does not need to perform an Action with every available card (or any at all). Only face-up cards already on the field can perform actions. Typically, only creatures will have actions (but some artifacts or monuments, specially Equipments will have that option as well).
