Field manual

Launch orders: press Launch mission above and the game loads on this page itself — nothing downloads and no form stands between you and the first move. It is designed for a landscape (wide) screen and takes its orders from mouse, keyboard or touch, depending on the mission. It is built wide, for a landscape screen — rotate a phone sideways, or give it a tablet or monitor to stretch out on. If it offers a fullscreen control, use it — a fight this size deserves the whole screen.

Field notes for fighting operations

• Blocking is a move, not a pause. Most fighting games reward the player who defends deliberately — the opening you need usually appears while you are not pressing anything.
• Learn one short combo properly instead of five long ones badly. A reliable three-hit string you can land under pressure out-damages a spectacular sequence you drop twice a round.
• Watch the feet, not the health bar. Fighters telegraph through their stance and spacing; the bar only tells you how the last exchange went, not how the next one starts.
