-'''Bread swinging''' is a strategy designed to lower your turn count. Swinging an untrained weapon with high [[delay|base delay]], such as a [[heavy]] weapon, will take more than 10 ''[[aut]]s'', while only taking one ''[[turn]]''. Therefore, you will have more [[time]] to regenerate health, while taking the same amount of turns. Note that taking off a [[shield]] and putting it back on again will take 10 turns (of 10 aut each).
