**Overcharge** is one of the Combat Abilities in Battle Chasers: Nightwar.

## Description

Actions are not as powerful as Abilities, but they are free, instant and generate Overcharge, though overcharge will always be used up before Mana, so you can be efficient by using Actions to build Overcharge before performing your more powerful Abilities.

Each Will point past a hero's starting Will increases their maximum Overcharge at max Mana by 1.
