And only by the players that hold them?

Technically the stats belong to the players, not the Avatars. Avatars 
don't get stats.

What does "diagonally adjacent" mean in this context? There are twelve 
cubes adjacent to a cube by shared face edges, and eight more via 
shared corners; do you really want to let somebody nuke 20 cubes 
(almost a third of the Arena) in one move?

break even on Honor and lose 20 points for nothing.
