When a unit enters a
tactical map it will do so on the top or bottom
border (USA = row 1, CSA = row 21). Although
this cannot be influenced, the player can define
the column in which the unit should enter. This
can be a very important decision since not only
can the units be placed on a tactical map in
correlation with other units entering, but the
necessary moves to the front lines can be
severely shortened.
Entry commands are submitted along with most
other commands such as "move" and "fire" and
have the following format:
- entry: 1-15 (15th
column for a USA unit)
- entry: 21-34 (34th
column for a CSA unit)
In the example below both
sides have entered their units in formations
suitable to their goals, instead of simply
entering the units in the same column the units
were in on the last tactical map
(which would have been the case had no "entry"
orders been submitted).
