Assault Team/sk

Assault Teams are the smallest group of players in the game. Creating and joining an assault team is the easiest way for players to play together with friends.

Only Assault Teams are able to initiate attacks, whereas Strategic Commands are used for logistic purposes. Reserve Units (like men and tanks) are assigned directly to the assault team and used in combat. The assault teams have a limit to its size depending on its type.

Assault Teams are categorized into strict types that gives access to different specializations allowing use of special weapons and vehicles.

When an Assault Team is attacked, all friendly players can join the battle. They will need to have a character that fits the Assault Team's specialization though.

Joining an Assault Team
When a player joins a mission he is assigned to the assault team conducting the mission. The player can then choose a character class to play from the available character slots dictated by the type of Assault Team. If he have a character that fits any of the slots (like a machinegunner) he can choose his own character instead of the default one.

Creating an Assault Team
All players can create an assault team when they have the required funds and an available slot. The Assault Team is 'under formation' (inactive) until it have received army-resources from it's superior command. New assault teams are deployed close to the team's capital.

Moving Assault Teams
Ground based Assault Teams are moved between battlefields on the campaign map following the supplylines. Airborne Assault Teams can only move from airfields to airfields but move quickly and in a direct line.

Attacking
Ground based Assault Teams attack by moving up to a battlefield and initiating an assault. Airborne Assault Teams can attack any visible enemy assault team/transport within their range. When all units are killed in the assault team, the team respawns at HQ.
