Well that does not make it any clearer.

You can give any armature any action by opening up the dope sheet, in that the action editor, and setting the action in the dropdown. This means you can use the same action for all the armatures. Once you start looking at the NLE you can then stagger the animations, loop them, things like that.

Yes I am familiar with dopesheet and also NLE and how to do it for every character separately but what about a group. Miss a group armature option.
