Editing Battlefields (section)

=== First battle turn, my turn ===

Type 'next' to select a trooper.

Type 'action' to select an action. Remember, each of your troopers may perform two actions on your team's turn. In-game helps will describe each available action. Type 'battlefields actions' to read about them.

I will choose 'action move'. Note that because in mercenary squad everyone can be a squad leader, all members of the squad will follow and choose the same action.

<pre>
Use this command to choose action for Raine.
Usage: action <move|shoot|charge|ready>

Then, end the action.

'''NOTE!''' If you use 'next' or 'prev' in midst of your action, your action with your currently selected trooper will end. Note that if you end an action, your enemy can react. Read on-line help 'battlefields reactions'.

While we're at it, we're going to choose 'shoot' as our squad's default reaction.

Mongrel [lp4] alert reaction is now shoot.

The "Re" column in squad contains the shorthand for which reaction is chosen. 'Sh' is for shoot.

Since my team has only one squad, and all of them have done their two actions following per their leader, my team turn is over. Type 'endturn' to end your turn. Your opponent will be notified of this and his turn will start automatically.
