Grrr...I feel crazy for asking this - but have trolled through both the board search function and the rules on the main website for the last 60 minutes:

How the heck do you activate a unit ability? Whenever I try I end up using the defense/attack of that unit.

The rules say to use the right click on the unit, and then choose the activated ability, but I can never see this "wheel" or whatever they are talking about - it just brings up a look of the unit's stats.

Thanks in advance - very frustrating to not be able to use Bib's text, and only get his 1 defense every time

When you have an ability that activates during attack or defense you have to hold the mouse button down and it will bring up four small circles.  The blue "starburst" picture is the circle you want to release the mouse button on to activate the unit's ability.

Don't feel bad, it took me forever to figure out this one. I still make mistakes sometimes with my Dark Jedi Knights.

Thanks, y'all!  Weird that I couldn't find that somewhere...I know I just didn't look the right place.

Thanks again.

Yeah I hate doing that
