Value, Offense, Defense and Utility are percentiles against every current unit in the game (100 = best per point). Value is Offense and Defense; Utility (board control, actions, reach, support, and how often winning lists take the unit anyway) is shown beside it. Target columns: expected wounds removed per 100 points.
