Battle Unit

Battle Unit (バトルユニット, Batoruyunitto ) is a new sub of Monster Card introduced along with Sequence Spell Cards. Designed in the likeness of Pendulum Monsters, Battle Units have the top half of an Effect Monster and the bottom half being a light silver/gray. They also have to effect boxes; one for their Monster Effect and one for their Battle Unit Effect. When each player controls at least one Battle Unit, the turn player may initiate a Battle Sequence during their Battle Phase.

Mechanics
Battle Units both function as monsters while in the Monster Card Zone, and essentially as Equip Spell Cards for the player when in the Battle Zone. All Battle Units have some cost or condition that allows a player to place them, usually from their hand or field, into their Battle Zone, of which each player has 3. As there are only 3 Battle Zones, up to 3 Battle Units can be equipped at a time.

Aside from standard aspects of Monster Cards, such as Level, Attribute, ATK, and DEF, Battle Units possess two special aspects: Offense Points and Guard Points, which are compared during a Battle Sequence and determine which player receives damage and which Battle Unit has either of its Points reduced and/or is destroyed.

Offense Points & Guard Points also have an effect on how many/what Battle Units a player can place into their Battle Zone. The maximum total Offense Points the Battle Units in a player's Battle Zone is 10, while the maximum total Guard Points is 20.
