Just got through the tutorial and started a new game.  I didn't play WoM all that much, and couldn't find a manual for FE, so was wondering if:

1) There is a quicksave/load option?

2) How to use throwing weapons like knives?  My hero had a staff and throwing knives equipped (and was within 3 squares), but I didn't find a way to throw them.

3) At level up I had a lot of common traits and 1 rare trait.  Not sure how the system works?  Does the game give a small chance for rare attribute options, and it's totally variable?

4) Is there no manual (hope it's not in some obvious spot I obviously missed)?

I do want to add a few suggestions:

1) I didn't see any menu options in the battle screen.  Sometimes I person just wants to change options without having to auto-resolve.

2) I'd like more movement allowance info on the map.  A way to visually determine which units can still move during each turn would be awesome!

3) Magic is extremely limited compared to melee units with unlimited use.  Melee stacks don't run out of energy yet mana is pretty limited.  We need to be able to cast a bit more, especially given that most spells are not not powerful in the early to mid-game. 

Edit:  Also, can you give equipment you find in looted chests to militia?  I seem to only have the option to give to another champion when I am in my city.
