To go along with the rules translation, here is the first half of the Ver.1.5 Q&A that came in the BS-21 Goldar Deck. If there is still anything unclear on these points, feel free to comment and I will try to address them.

2. What is a Deck? 3 Beast figures, their corresponding cards and Battle Lots and the appropriate number of Magic Lot are a Deck.
3. What is a Battle Lot? The Die with the Beast's characteristic emblem. The emblem corresponds to one specific Beast only.  
4. What is a Magic Lot? Dice with various magical effects. They are used to affect the values of the Battle Lots. All Beasts can use any Magic Lot.
5. What is the Beast Card? It is the Beast's characteristic card. it has Battle Lot value, available Magic Lot value and various intelligence data printed on back.
