In order to become a successful Field Commander you need to master how
to order your Strike Force and interact with the battlefield.
The Command Environment
Camera control
The camera is your point of view and it is free-roaming, meaning that you can
position it anywhere on the battlefield and have it face any direction. The camera
view position on the battlefield is displayed on the tactical map. Note that even
though you can place the camera anywhere does not mean you can see units
or buildings. Only enemy units and buildings that your own units or allies can
see are visible in your view. For more information about the line of sight, see
section 9, Ground Control Tactics.
Rotate the camera view by moving the mouse cursor to the left or the right
edge of the screen. By moving the mouse to the top or the bottom screen
