This means that the larger your party is, the more your opponent's individual characters will act before you do and vice versa. If you overwhelm the enemy and have a guy caught in the open, they'll likely die as they get attacked several times before they can act. Because of this it's important not to spread your party across the map especially if you move a character into a group of enemies that haven't acted yet. | * The battle system is kind of wonky.
