Does damage dealt to a unit reduce its might, or does damage work separately from might?

Ruling: Damage marked on a unit does not reduce its might. A unit's might remains constant regardless of damage marked on it.

Sequence:

  • Damage is marked on units when they take damage
  • When a unit has damage marked on it greater than or equal to its might, it dies
  • Units heal (damage is removed) during combat cleanup after combat damage is dealt, and at the end of turn

Nuances:

  • A 7 might unit with 6 damage marked on it still deals 7 damage in combat
  • Effects that actually reduce might (like Stupefy, Smokescreen, and Thousand Tailed Watcher) exist as separate mechanics from damage
