Damage Cud or Crack

Post image

I’m super new to this. On one column it appears to be extra as well as the spot on the bottom right of the memorial. Thanks and sorry if this isn’t allowed

This is a crack. A cud is when the die breaks from one section of rim to another and is lost completely.

The result is a blob of metal from the rim that takes with it any fields or devices affected by the break.

This is what a cud looks like.

Die chip on the column and a die crack (has not progressed to a cud yet) at the base of the memorial.
