The Orders tab

Use the Orders tab when:

• At the start of the game, you add your units by name.
• Each time a unit acts, you tick it off.
• A unit gets pinned or loses models, and you want to keep count.
• Everyone has acted, and you end the turn.

Doing it by hand works, but the app makes it easier:

• No more tokens next to each model that get knocked over.
• A bar shows how many units are done, like “2 of 5”.
• Pins, losses live on one card for each unit.
• Vehicle damage sits right on the vehicle's card.
• End turn clears every tick in one tap.

Try it: you have three units: Alpha, Bravo and a Mortar.

1. Open the Orders tab. Scroll down to the box that says “Unit 1”.
2. Type Alpha and tap Add. Do the same for Bravo and the Mortar.
3. Alpha acts first. Tap Alpha's card. A green check shows up, and the top says “1 of 3”.
4. Bravo gets shot at and takes a pin. Tap the + next to PINS on Bravo's card.
5. When the last unit acts, the app asks “End turn 1?”. Tap End turn. Every check clears, and the turn becomes 2.

The numbers on the pictures match the list under each picture. Gold boxes show where each thing is.

Edit mode extras

In Edit list, each card gets colors, a short tag (up to 6 letters, like HQ), the type (Unit or Vehicle), ↑ and ↓ to move it, and Remove.

• In most skirmish games each unit acts once per turn. Ticking them off stops a unit from acting twice, or being forgotten.
• Pins can make a unit worse at fighting. Tracking them keeps the rules fair.
• Losses on the card also show up on the Casualties tab, so the score is the same in both places.

Unit

One group of models on the table. Each unit gets its own card.

Ordered

This unit has had its order this turn. It shows a green check.

Turn

One round where every unit gets a chance to act.

Pins

Tag

A short label of up to 6 letters, like HQ or A1.

Vehicle

Superficial / Full

Two kinds of vehicle damage. + Sup adds light damage. + Full adds heavy damage.

Immobilized / Knocked out

Switches for a vehicle that can't move, or is out of the fight.

• Tap a card again to take the check mark away.
• On a vehicle, Undo takes back the last damage mark.
• Remove asks first. Removing a unit can't be undone.
• Everything here is saved on your phone, even if you close the app.
• Don't want the End turn question? Turn off Prompt to end turn in Settings.
• Unit card size in Settings makes the cards Compact, Normal or Large.
