Law cards are cards which nullify one or more of the laws, depending on the rank and type of card. They are available to you after you do the help Ezel mission, which is part of the storyline.

Remember: Dark cards remove laws, light cards add them.

To use a law;
During a battle (except for in a jagd, but that's pretty obvious), during one of your units turns press B, which will put you into select mode. From here, press Start to bring up a menu with many different options. Select Law Cards and you'll be shown the laws that are affecting the battle. Press A and you will be able to select a card from a list of cards that you currently have. If you want to create a law, select an empty space (or make an empty space if there isn't one by nullifying a law) and select a dark card to add the law you want. Simple.

There is a card to add every law and to remove every law; you can view the laws above. But there are also a few special cards; the ones avaliable to you are:
R# Antilaw: Removes all laws of the same rank as the card.
Allmighty: Removes all laws.

You may have noticed that there are different ranks, 1-6. What's up with this? Well, the penalty for breaking a R1 law is a yellow card, breaking a R6 law is an immediate red card. But the main difference between ranks comes in at the end of the engagement. The higher ranked the law, the worse the penalty, though ranks aren't the only thing that affect the penalty
