hum. It's a multyplayer system. You create you hero choosing it's race and gender. Them you start in a map with that view and stuff. You can't attack analogically, but you can attack using "weapon" skills. Anytime you put a weapon on your inventory, you gain that weapon "attack" skill. A Bow allow you to shoot arrows, while a short sword allow you to damage units that are nearby you like a directed melee attack. The more you succesfully attack with a weapon, the best you get at it. (damage increases, speed to cast, range, e.t.c.). Improving with weapons also unlock other secondary skills.
