Abilities

[neil259]

How do I get the abilities to work? I have a Blood Angel who can shoot at every target in range. I click on the icon but can't get it to do anything. Overwatch is next to it and works OK. Thanks in advance. (I can't find any instructions for this game!)

After clicking the icon click again twice(!) on the space marine, it should activate. Except for overwatch, skills have to be selected, then the marine/target you want to use it on has to be selected (e.g. you want to heal a marine next to you, throw grenade at tyranide), and then a 3rd click on the target to confirm. Also, when you click on an icon it should highlight the valid target-squares in purple, after clicking the square/target it should turn red and then after 3rd click it will activate.

Not directly related, but also usefull:

- you can cancel an active overwatch by pressing the overwatch icon again
- you get descriptions for abilities/icons by holding left mouse on an icon

Thanks very much!

You can also cancel an ability target selection by clicking on an invalid target square (e.g. out of range)
