1. The windows of the screen

          1. Main window: This window gives you a detailed areal view of
             the battle field. You may zoom in or out by using the zoom
 [Image]     toggle switch (5). To scroll to other areas of the battle
             field, simply place the mouse cursor on the outside edge of
             this window. Areas not yet explored are covered by thick
             clouds.

  2. Map window: This window contains a small map of the entire battle
     field. A rectangular box indicates the area displayed on the main
     window. You may click on this map to move the main window to a
     different location, or to indicate destinations for troop movements.
  3. Selection window: While selected, each unit (men or vehicle) will be
     represented in this window. Small bars indicate health status and
     remaining ammo. A left mouse click on a selected unit will
     automatically deselect all other units. A right mouse click on any
     unit will center the main window on the designated unit. Holding down
     the CTRL key while designating a unit with a left mouse click will
     remove this unit from your selection.
  4. Message window. During the game, messages will appear in this window.
     Clicking on a message will automatically center the main window on the
     location that relates to it. Crucial messages are displayed in
     inverted colors (White characters on a black background).
  5. Zoom toggle button.
  6. Message scroll knob. This knob allows you to scroll up or down the
     list of messages.

2. Issuing orders to your units

Most units are either under your command or under that of the enemy. Some
intelligence is programmed into each unit, however they will show little
initiative. Most often, they will faithfully obey your orders, but their
reactions can depend on their health status, morale, ... To issue an order
to one of your units, you must first select it. You can select a unit with
a left mouse click. You can select up to 9 units simultaneously by clicking
and dragging over several units at once. (Hold down the mouse button, frame
the units you wish to select, than release the mouse button). Selected
units will be displayed in little rectangles and will be represented in the
selection window along with their health status and remaining ammo. To add
to or exclude from your selection, repeat the same process while holding
down the CTRL key. Clicking on a unit icon in the selection window will
select that unit exclusively (unless the CTRL key is held down). Once you
have selected your unit(s), you can use one of two methods to issue an
order:

A. Menu orders

        When you click with the right mouse button on a selected unit, the
        “Action Menu” will appear. (See example) This menu indicates the
        health status, the remaining ammo and the possible actions. In
        this example, the only two possible actions are “Go” and “Shoot
 [Image]at”. Issue your order by clicking on one of these actions. The
        menu will disappear and the cursor will prompt you to designate
        the location on the main window where you would like the action to
        take place (if accuracy is not critical, you may select a location
        on the map window).
In the menu chosen for this example you can also click on “Attitude”. Doing
so will prompt you to chose one of three attitudes for the selected
unit(s):
           * “CAREFUL”: The unit will do its best to avoid any
             confrontation.
 [Image]   * “QUICK”: The unit will favor speed without much concern about
             the enemy.
           * “NAUGHTY”: The units will not hesitate to attack any enemy
             encountered while on the move.
Note that the content of the action menu varies according to the
capabilities of the selected unit(s). When several units are selected at
once, only the possible actions common to all the members of the group will
be available (For example if one of the units selected has ran out of ammo,
the “Shoot at” Action will not be available). A little X on the menu
indicates the order being carried out.

When you encounter a new type of unit, a quick look at its action menu will
inform you about this unit’s capabilities. ALT+CLICK on a unit or an object
will bring a help screen.

B. Direct orders

Opening the Action menu can be necessary to issue some very specific
orders. However, for common orders a quicker method is available: When a
unit (or a group of units) is selected, clicking on the main window with
the right mouse button will issue a “Direct order”. If you designate an
empty location, your unit(s) will move to that location. If you designate
an enemy, your Unit(s) will attack that particular enemy. If you designate
an object, your unit(s) will pick it up. If you designate a vehicle, your
unit(s) will climb in. If you designate another friendly unit, your unit(s)
will follow it (Until another order is issued). You may also designate
locations on the map window.

C. Teaming

This feature allows you to group your units into teams. select the units
you want to team up, hold the CTRL key and hit 0 to 9. To select the team
later, just hit the corresponding 0 to 9 key.

3. Objects

Your troops can pick up certain objects including:

   * First aid kits restore your unit’s health to 100%.
   * Ammo boxes gives any unit a full load of ammo.
   * Briefcases can only be picked up by officers and special force units.

          They are very important as they often contain crucial
          instructions and battle plans. Once a briefcase has been
          picked up, it will appear on the icon of the unit that
          picked it up. To examine the content, right-click on the
          icon.
