Dices, Distances, Squadron and Engineering

By epicneo, in Star Wars: Armada

As a potential player I'm trying to gather as many information as I can about Armada, but I have some questions which cannot be answered by Google :) I hope you can help.

- What is the difference between dices (beside color)? I know there is a connection between color and range (and of course fire arcs). What are the meaning of the symbols? (hit, critical...?) What are possibilities of each dice?

- There are two other abilities under Command on Capital ship sheets (Squadron and Engineering). How can the ships use these?

- What are the possible "icons"? I mean evade, redirect etc...

Thanks in advance! :)
