hi, just started playing, and whilst ive got the basics down...

1. assign a specific weapon to a character? or can you not? i see that there's bonus's for the characters using their specific weapon, but will it be assigned automatically?

2. i have from the missions over 200 medals. do i just convert all these to cards and then use them to upgrade my current team? is there any benefit to keeping medals / cards?

3. my team is 9 strong as it should be... when upgrading cards is it possible to accidentally upgrade and be left with less than 9 cards?

4. as above, but with weapons!

5. whats the rule of thumb for battle cubes / energon, i've got 60 odd spare, but i don't tend to spend them... are these best keeping for the special missions?

6. what is an R4?

7. im trying to max out my allies, purely so i can cheer them and get the free cards... is there anything else i should be doing with them?
