Mechanics
-Movement
One movement action lets you move 6 tiles. If you are squeezing or in
 difficult terrain, you can only move 3 tiles. You can also use a movement
action to perform a skill check.

-Attack
One attack action lets you use a weapon, reload a crossbow, or fire a ranged weapon.
When you attack, you roll a 6-sided die against your
target. Rolling a one means the opponent can get an attack against you.
Rolling a six means the attack does double damage.

-Companions
Three classes can have companions from the start,
Wizard, Necromancer, and Gladiators(on a chance roll).
Necromancer's and Wizard's companions have a class like a normal player.
Though, all of their skills are displayed, only skills that their class depends
on can be used (along with the three attack skills and dodge and block).
The player who owns the companion can tell it what to do but it won't
usually want to give away powerful items (glowing and artifact) or do
anything suicidal. There is an exception for necromancers.
If their companion is non-casting, they can tell their companion
to do things other companions will not. Recruited NPCs and
husbands/wifes count as companions, though NPCs are "owned"
by the person they respect the most. 

-Savescumming
At anytime a player can choose to save scum. When they die, they get moved to the
back of the waiting list and use the same character when it is their turn.(Maybe?)

Uh, if the wizard gets +1 to spell attacks, and the elementalist gets +1 to elemental spell attacks, what does the elementalist do better?

Hm... that better?

[inaluct]

How exactly does squeezing work?

[Jack_Bread]

It lets you move at half speed into spaces one size smaller than you. Therefore, as an acrobat, you can squeeze through spaces two sizes small than you. If you try to squeeze through a space two sizes or more you have to roll to move one square. If you fail, you take damage and may start suffocating. If you succeed, you can move one more square up.
