Tutorial 2 guides you through the close
combat Battlescape — the section of the
game where you fight the aliens face-to-face.
ARMING YOUR SQUAD
1. The eight members of your squad
automatically arm themselves with the
weapons that are available. This screen
allows you to adjust the weapons your
squad will carry into action.
■
Click on the left/right arrows in the top right
of the screen to check the armament of
each of the eight members of your squad.
2. You will see that six of your aquanauts
have Jet-Harpoons, one has a Dart Gun
and one has a Gas Cannon. The aquanauts
carry extra ammunition and grenades on
their belts.
Full details on this section of the game are
given in the Alien Submarine Assaults
chapter of this manual.

Click on the OK button to exit this screen.
3. The ‘Turn’ screen appears.
Note: All Battlescape action is turn-based.
This means it is like a 3-D game of chess —
you move your pieces, the aliens move theirs!
