Who should I hire ? - tips for choosing the BEST bad guys
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STRENGTH : bad guys with a high strength can neutralize more encounters
SKILLS THAT BOOST STRENGTH : They make a guy more flexible against encounters because you can spend $ if his strength is lower than the encounter's
CANCEL SPELLS : Pay attention to the type. Some Cancel spells only allow you to cancel effects of a specific type of encounters.
There are 4 types of encounters : Heavies, Devices, Structures, Super-hero. You only have super-hero encounters on hard raid.
FIND NEW GUYS : if the guys you can hire are weak, reset the panel !
RAIDS : When you launch a raid, make sure your guys can cancel Heavies, Devices, Structures, and that they're strong enough or can boost their strength.
K.O. : The guys are K.O. after a raid. They need to rest one night before they can fight again.

How the battle system works
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The idea is to remove the effects of the encounters before you face them. The characters can use their "Cancel" spells if they have a strength superior or equal to the strength of the encounter and if they can cancel the right type of encounter.
Select a "Cancel" spell, then click on the button on the left of the effect you want to remove.
If you don't finish a raid, you can consult the encounters you've already seen to adapt your strategy.

Don't hesitate to ask if you don't understand something in the game.
Sorry for the very basic graphics, I didn't have time to work on them !
