Combat
If your units make contact with enemy units on the field map screen, they will engage in combat.
Rules of Engagement
Your units will act automatically based on their formation and settings. When one side is unable to continue, or both sides have used all of their attacks, the battle will end and the side which has dealt the most damage will emerge as the victor. After the battle, units may gain experience and you will be returned to the field map screen.

Fallen characters can be revived at the Witch’s Den, or by using special items.



Interrupt Bar

Interrupt Commands
Interrupt commands are accessible by pressing or in battle. Here you can change your unit’s strategy, try to talk down neutral characters, retreat and use Elem Pedra.

The BATTLE STRATEGY command (circled in red) is always available. Certain options are only available at the beginning of the battle, or after the Interrupt Gauge has filled up a number of times. See “10. Menu Guide” for a list of the various options.
