You mean can - wait, Vyt beat me to it xD Yeah, what he said.
You can use a Special and an attack unless otherwise stated.
Don't forget that Energy cards that are used to retreat are put back into your deck instead of going to the discard pile.
Also, Old Knight starts play paralyzed. >_> Paralysis is a status effect that affects the reliability of your attacks; attacks have only a 50% chance of working. Roll a die each time you try to attack. If the result is 4 or more, the attack works normally. If the result is 3 or less, the attack fails and nothing happens.
There are two other status effects: sleep and poison. A sleeping Fighter rolls a die each turn. If the result is 4 or more, the sleep effect is removed and it can attack normally. If the result is 3 or less, the fighter is still asleep and can't attack. Poison causes the poisoned Fighter to take 1 damage each round.
Note that none of the status effects affect retreating, and that poison won't cause damage to a benched Fighter. Also note that the status effects aren't removed when a Fighter is benched. So a poisoned Fighter that is retreated won't take damage while on the bench, but is still considered to be poisoned and will start taking damage again if it becomes Active.
And the point of all that was that you're supposed to roll a die to see if Magic Sword deals damage. <_< I'll wait until you've taken care of that.

Can I move battle sword or does it have to stay with Flash Drone? Equipment Cards cannot be moved from the card it is attached to.

Technically, you were supposed to play Robotics Lab Assistant to your bench first, then retreat Old Knight. But otherwise, good job. ^_^ Now, for match awards. The winner of each match gets 50 shinies, while the loser gets 20 shinies. These shinies can be spent at Goosh's Card Emporium. Remember that the Emporium would like you to include a link to your TCG accounts whenver you make a purchase. If you've signed up to be an officially ranked player, you can take a look at your ranking here. If I remember correctly, Vyt said something about shinies for those who registered there; you may want to do so. You also said that you were planning to upgrade your deck. If you want some ideas on how to do so, you can look here. Vyt I-Guy uses that thread to post advice on the TCG, so you may want to look at the rest of his posts. Fighters have HP, attack power, and speed. (Speed isn't an actual attribute, but is a term that describes how quickly the card can start attacking and keep attacking. Cards that need more Energy for attacks, require a delay between attacks, or discard Energy to attack are slower. For example, Lightning Mage would be faster then Blank Paper, since Lightning Mage only needs one Energy to start attacking and Blank Paper needs a constant supply of fresh Energy.) More attack power usually means less HP, and faster attacks tend to do less damage then slower ones. Keep these in mind when choosing fighters to put into your deck.
Event cards: See if you can get Leocookies or Frag Grenades; 4 HP and 2 damage are worth more than they sound.

Glad to help ^_^ Best of luck in your TCG career. Oh, and before I forget: if you're feeling inspired, you can make your own TCG cards at the Card Creation Thread. Have a concept in mind and make sure you understand the rules when making a card. Also note that you won't automatically receive cards that you've designed; you need to get them in the same way you get other cards (booster packs or buying forumer cards). Don't worry too much about making mistakes, the people there will give you advice if you ask for it.
