Summary of Orders
ALL [3o]
Costs 2 Initiative to activate any unit that is Out of Command; 1 if under Tactical Command; 0 if under Mission Command [30.1].
Flip activated units to their reverse (white stripe) side. Flip them back (“unactivate” them) after each has performed its activities.
A turn ends at the conclusion of any order in which no cubes remain on the Order Matrix [21.12].
A dva nc e [ 3 1]
Infantry are the only unit type that may enter/exit melee during an Advance order.
Activated units may move a maximum of 1 hex. Guns/vehicles can pivot once (before, after or instead of advancing). MPs are ignored. Friendly
Command may accompany advancing units. Units with a hit marker attached containing a circled M can’t advance or pivot.
Ass a u l t [3 2] – O p Fi re i s a l l o w e d (s e e b o t to m o f p a g e)
Vehicles are the only unit type that may enter/exit melee during an Assault order.
Activated units have their printed Speed halved. Activated units spend MPs as if for a Move order. Each activated unit may fire once by spend-
ing 1 MP, suffering –1D (unless in melee). Friendly Command may accompany assaulting units.
Ass e t [33]
Play up to one Asset order from your hand.
Fire [3 4]
Units with a hit marker attached containing a circled F can’t fire. Units with a hit marker attached containing a circled M can’t pivot.
DIRECT: Activated units may each make one fire attack outside their own hex. See the Player Aid for detailed procedure.
M e l e e : Activated units may each make one fire attack at a unit in their own hex. See the Melee Tables for detailed procedure.
Return Fire [34.3]
Inactive player only: Up to one unspent unit may Return Fire at an activated unit that just completed its Fire order. Lose 2 Initiative to
Return Fire with a unit that is Out of Command; lose 1 Initiative to Return Fire with a unit under Tactical Command; units under Mission
Command Return Fire for free. If either attack die is less than or equal to the Return Firing unit’s ROF, place a Spent marker on it. Remove
all Spent markers at the end of the order.
Move [3 5 ] – O p Fi re i s a l l o w e d (s e e b o t to m o f p a g e)
Guns are the only unit type that may enter/exit melee during a Move order.
Activated units move from hex to hex, expending MPs as they go. Friendly Command may accompany moving units. Units with a hit marker
attached containing a circled M can’t expend MPs.
R a lly [36]
Attempt to remove hit markers from activated units. Rolls greater than or equal to a hit marker’s rally number are successful. A failed attempt
with a red-colored rally number eliminates the unit, otherwise a fail has no effect.
Start with 2d10: –2D if rallying unit is in melee; +1D if stacked with a friendly Command; +1D if rallying unit has Cover of 1 or more.
Sniper [37]
Flip the Sniper marker so that your side is face up. Then perform any one order that lies below your side’s Sniper order.
Support [38]
Draw X asset cards (as indicated on the Order Matrix).
Op p or t uni t y (Op) F ir e [35.6]
Inactive player only: Any number of unspent units may Op Fire – one at a time – at an activated unit(s) that just expended any number of MPs
during a Move or Assault order. Lose 2 Initiative to Op Fire with a unit that is Out of Command; lose 1 Initiative to Op Fire with a unit under
Tactical Command; units under Mission Command Op Fire for free. If either attack die is less than or equal to the Op Firing unit’s ROF, place
a Spent marker on it. Remove all Spent markers at the end of the order.
