## Throwing

The throw distance of weapons is 3 tiles from the hero, but can be increased by 1 tile with each level of *Throwing* to a maximum of 6 tiles. Throw range is not fully a square, one tile on every diagonal is "cut off". The hero can usually not throw through walls (depends on the position of the hero). Weapons can not be thrown on protected enemies (*Tactics*), non-interactable or objects, which are not highlighted in orange. Throwing costs 4 Action points and 1 Energy. Weapons can only be thrown while in combat.

Tip: If the player decides to not throw the selected weapon, they can deselect it.

Throwing a weapon:

1. Enter combat.
2. Select a weapon in hero's inventory. The tiles in range will be highlighted in orange.
3. Select a tile highlighted in orange.
