Well, the new mechanism with which we could deploy our soldiers would be based on one very similar to that of MEN OF WAR 2.

The soldiers in blue would be our AI soldiers which we would select in a special box that would be displayed by pressing a key for example: (M) and with the mouse we would select the number or type of the AI ​​soldiers that we would like to be deployed for example: that three assaults go behind a wall to provide cover, or a house or that they deploy a machine gun over a window making the game more tactical and giving personality to enlisted.

Precise orders - orders that require player to point at something / in a direction. Scroll - soldier selection - player can scroll up/down to select individual soldiers. Press to se…

RTS-ish way of commanding your squad

As I see more and more people that want more complex command system, I decided to dust off my really old idea that was never brought to light. It’s rather simple: player would have map of the nearest area and could use it to command his squad similarly to RTS games. He could do things like ordering single soldiers to move to certain positions etc. It may also have more complex commands (as it’s main point of this idea) like for example building AT gun by AI. Obvious downside would be inability…

It may be rude to do this but I’m not making posts to see someone say “nobody proposed it”.

I’ve been in this forum for a long time but I never saw your idea until now, which makes me sad since it doesn’t give me hope if one day the AI ​​use commands change
