Action specials

Specials by number

These are all the action specials, arranged by number. They are grouped only for quick scrolling purposes and to break up the monotony of such a long list; there is no common bond within any section below besides the numbers being close together.

Some specials cannot be used in scripts, and some cannot be used on lines or on things.
