How can i move entire lance at once?

Not in battle, just to arrive some destination point.

[NewGame+]

you do not

You have to move each unit individually. Welcome to turn based games, they universally have this issue of moving without being in combat being tedious.

[DasaKamov]

While you can't "group-move" your lance, you CAN order your other mechs to move while the previous mech is still en route to its destination (that is, you don't have to wait for the previous mech to stop moving before ordering the next mech to move) when you're outside of combat.

If there are no enemies you can just sprint.

It's a silly over sight but that's what it is

What the OP wants is a move as one.. When not in tactical combat mode, you can move anyone in any order till you get a contact. What the OP would like, and as quality of life I would also, an option to select target locations for each mech, or grab the group and select a general target location to move to letting AI choose final stop points, then click one button to have all movement commands executed as one.

Not really. I can only name maybe 3 games out of the hundreds of TBS games I've played that had such a feature.

Since positioning is do-or-die in this game, it makes sense that the option isn't there. If you are charging forward without thinking of individuals position, you are going to get gunned down on anything above 1 Skull Difficulty.

If there are no enemies, then you can move each mech before the first have finished moving. Just click click click click.

IF, no enemies ;)

Quickest out of combat way to move mech (if your not trying to get certain strategic points) is:
select your first mech, drag your mouse a bit beyond maximum movement distance, click tab click tab click tab click. That moves 4 mechs to maxium distance in a location fast and innaccurately.

I think a pause like bioware did for their d&d games would be awesome.

Pretty much this. Escaping to a LZ is a PITA if you cannot destroy the rest of the enemy for whatever reason. Be nice to select Lance, select move to point and boom, autopilot it.

Yes, really. The game specifically throws a pop up box onto your screen in the first real mission that says you can group move your mechs together. Notably, as could have been guessed by the half vague "tutorial" if you can call it that, it SAYS this but never tells you HOW. Only for people like OP to wonder how they do it or why they can't when the game says you can.

Look at the tutorial again. It specificlly states that, when not in combat, the player can order the next mech to move while a previous mech is still moving to its destination.

The Tutorial IS lackluster (how do you not explain Stability, Injuries or Morale when they're crucial mechanics in the game), but this is not one of its failings.

Yes it is because that is horribly vague phrasing. You are correct in that it technically doesn't mention that you can explicitly move all units together, but whoever wrote that popup box did a crap job. Not only is it called "Team Movement," but it states "you can even have multiple units moving at the same time." The heavy implication to people who have played a lot of games would take this to mean "you can select multiple units and move them simultaneously."

I know where you're coming from and you're not wrong, but you need to admit that was a terrible way to communicate an idea. Which, looking at the tutorial as a whole, blends right in with the rest of the stormy mess (I figured out a lot of mechanics on my own, not that I SHOULD have had to do so, but there was also a highly detailed document posted on the forums by a user that helped a lot).

It's a pointless feature in a tactical game.
