     Units can carry multiple types of item in their Inventory. Weapons allow a Unit to fight enemies or assist allied Units. Accessories are Items that provide a benefit to the Unit as long as the Unit carries them in their Inventory. Consumables are Items that can be used in some way for a limited number of times. Units can carry multiple types of item in their Inventory.
