The Combat Window appears when ever there is combat to be resolved. The primary function of the Combat Window is set your order of battle. The order is very important for units first in combat take damage first but may get special bonuses. Most other functions of the game are disabled when combat is going on. This emphasizes the necessity of determining the outcome of combat before proceeding with the game.
Commands Associated with The Combat Window
The commands here are very simple. Rearrange your army (see Working with Army Lists ), then hit the 'Do Battle' button. Whether the attacker or defender rearranges first makes no difference as long as both players are satisfied with their arrangement when the 'Do Battle' button is pressed. You may use the 'Group' buttons to help organize your forces. The 'Group' button groups your list by type.
