Tetra Master - Card Info

Information

Each card bears an image. It may depict a monster or some creature, or maybe a town or weapon. There are a total of 100 different images or card types. You will generally see at least one triangular arrow on each card, although you may find a card with no arrows at all. These arrows represent the card's attack directions. A player can only "attack" cards adjacent to his/her own, and an arrow on the player's card must point at the opponent's card. The arrows also have a defensive purpose : If a card is attacked from a direction where it lacks an arrow, it cannot resist the attack.

As a rule, the first two digit, the AP and Attack Type, determine a card's attack power. A-Attack Type cards are the exception to the rule : their highest parameter - AP, PD or MD - determines their attack power. The last two digits designate a card's defensive powers. Each card also has an invisible parameter, but this can be roughly gauged. This is the card's Hit Points, or HP. The following table shows the HP range of cards :
