CENTER VIEW [HOME KEY]
Hitting the home key will center your view on the currently selected unit/structure.
CONSTRUCTION YARD VIEW [‘H’ KEY]
Hitting ‘H’ will instantly center your view on your Construction Yard. This is useful for jump-
ing back to your base when you’ve been concentrating your efforts somewhere else on the
battlefield.
EVERYTHING SELECT [‘E’ KEY]
Hitting ‘E’ will select every unit that you can see on the battle field. This is useful for putting
your entire base into guard mode, or making a mad charge on the opponent’s base with
everything that you can see.
NEXT UNIT [‘N’ KEY]
This key will select another unit in your army. You can cycle through all your available units
with this key.
MULTIPLAYER ONLY KEYS
ALLY [‘A’ KEY]
During multiplayer games, it is sometimes advantageous to ally with other players. To Ally with
a player select one of that player’s units, and hit the ‘A’ key. A message will tell everyone that
you have Allied with the other player. Allies can share Service Depots, Helipads, etc., and will
not attack each other automatically. You will also see all of your Ally’s units on the radar map,
and his units will reveal the areas of the battle field for you that you did not have uncovered.
Making alliances are only ONE-WAY. If the other player does not Ally with you, their units
will still attack yours, but yours will not attack back. It is a good idea to make sure the other
player wants to Ally with you before you commit to the alliance.
To break an alliance, select one of your Ally’s units, and hit the ‘A’ key again. Unlike mak-
ing an alliance, breaking an alliance breaks it for both players. Both sides’ units will
become hostile to each other immediately.
MESSAGE SYSTEM [F1 - F8]
To send messages to the other players in a multiplay game, hitting F1 - F7 will prompt you to
enter a Message to a specific player. F8 will send your Message to everyone currently playing.
You can determine who each key represents by looking at the score screen in the map dis-
play. The players are listed in order (top to bottom), excluding yourself.
Note that when you are entering a Message, none of the keyboard commands will function.
If you wish to abort the Message, hit the ESC key.
