What about reducing by half and then by half again and so on for every turn it ' s affected ? A 50 STR unit would drop to just 6 after 2 turns . Just a thought . <| sep |> Are you referring to Gumi or other players ? Did they say they were Japanese ? Although , if they are , they could be kids . I mean , it takes awhile to memorize most of the kanji , so even teenagers at certain grade levels might not know all of them yet . That ' s probably one of the reasons Katakana and Hiragana exist they ' re more fluid and therefore better for loan words , but it ' s also faster to learn both of them . It ' s also possible Alim likes using older , more esoteric kanji . Reylee would know about that more than I would . I ' m just guessing based on what seems plausible to me and I ' m fairly ignorant , so take my guesses with a huge grain of salt .
