Grouping two groups can be done easily, so long as there are five or fewer units per group. Select both groups, then hold CTRL and press a Function key to assign them to that group. Alternatively, to move one group into another (again, both must be of no more than 5 units) select one unit, then hold CTRL and press the Function key for the unit you want to merge it with.

IIRC, only weapons of the same type can be linked. This is done by pressing the K key. There are only a few vehicles with weapons that can be linked, and most can be found on the Greenheart and Commando MPI Recycler variants.

And as a closing note, welcome to a new player. Hope you enjoy the new patch (1.3) and the many mods that have been made for it.

Don't forget to play 1.2 too, as this has some mods which have not yet been converted to 1.3, though Red Devil is working on it.

By "function key", you mean the F keys, right? Just like in the 1st game, then.

I tried that, but it didn't work. I have no idea why.. do you think it has something to do with patches? Also, can you please spare me a link to the v1.3 patch?

I'm using win XP, if that has anything to do with it.

Thanks for the help.

Hi there, BZuniverse. I'm new here. :)

Now, I played the first Battlezone, had a blast with it, and started playing the 2nd game.

I'm having some troubles with the new command interface-

1. How do you group several squads together into a single group\hotkey, like in the 1st game?

2. How do you group weapons together?

Thanks in advance.
