Game Lobby

The Game Lobby is the area you enter when logging on to game.heroesandgenerals.com.

The game lobby system consists of a number of 'screens' each with their own functionality. Some screens are for adjusting user settings and some are for direct interaction with the game.

The main screens are accessed via the big header buttons at the top of the screen. Secondary screens are accessed via the main screens.

Currently there are two main screens which are the Character and Campaign screen.

Heroes Screen
The Heroes Screen contains quite a bit of information about each individual soldier along with links to other important screens. The Heroes Screen is used to setup each character with different career paths, weapon load-outs, vehicle selection, and assault team selection. Soldiers or characters are the heroes portion of the game. They partake in the Action Game. What Assault Teams your generals send into battle will determine which soldiers you can play as ingame. For example, if the generals did not send any planes to your battle, then you will not be able to use your pilot.

Equipment Points
Understanding equipment points will give you better options for different load outs on your characters. Some load-outs are unique and require the badge Hoarder to unlock normally unobtainable combinations.

Modify Ammunition Loadout
Modifying the number of pouches of ammo your character is carrying can drastically impact the Action Game. Increasing the ammo amount will remove some of your max possible stamina and take up more equipment points, while reducing the amount of ammo will do the opposite. This allows for some unique combinations in terms of character loadouts. For example, it is impossible to use a sub machine gun with a bazooka unless you take no extra pouches with one of them and a single pouch with the other. To help offset the reduction in ammo you can equip the Hoarder Badge in the Combat Badges. This adds an additional 1/2/3 clips(not pouches) of ammo for all types other than pistol ammunition.

Weapon Customization Screen
Here the player can upgrade and customize personal weapons.

Assault Team Screen
The assault teams screen has changed quite a bit with the Rommel build. Now in order to access the assault teams you have to click on each individual soldier (if they are rank 12 or higher because only those soldiers can control assault teams) and select the assault teams tab in the character screen (heroes screen). Clicking on the space where you can equip and buy assault team(s).

Buying Assault Teams
Once you click on the screen where your equipped assault teams will go, you will come to the Assault teams main screen. From here you can buy, equip, switch, upgrade, rename your assault teams. You can also see the current rank progression of each assault team linked to that character. It should be noted that assault teams are limited based on the character you have currently selected. For example, infantry characters can only equip/buy infantry assault teams. The options will be marked out with x's if you cannot buy those particular kinds of assault teams. Generals however, can purchase all types of assault teams as they are the main character for the campaign portion of the game.

Rank Progression
As you use your assault teams, regardless if you actually play in them or other players do, they will earn experience. Assault teams will start out at rank 0 and can reach rank 3 over time. Each rank takes longer to earn experience towards the next rank. Once you reach the the next rank, command point permitting, you can upgrade your unit to the next type. Looking at the Assault team progression screen will show you which upgrades are possible at which rank and the cost of upgrading them on that pathway.

Options Screen
There are three icons in the top right corner that contain the options screens.
