Art of Tactic - How to play !!

Hello friends !!!
In this section , I'll try to explain the mechanism of the game . My English is not perfect , sorry for this !!

                                                                Battlefield

Battlefield is divided into numbeder hexagons . These hexagons reprensent different types of terrain.
In the game, each type of terrain has its own special rules , We'll see after !!

                                                           Units and unit cards

Each unit is represented on battlefield by a model, and has a matching Unit Card with all abilities , characteristics , and available orders for that unit .
Unit cost (red circled)
This value shows the relative power of unit. You must spend a number of "Force points" equal to this value in order to add the unit to you army !!

                                                        Deploy zone

At the biginning of each scenario, some hexagons are assigned to deployment of units.

                                                        The course of the battle

A game is played over a series of turns . Each turn is divided into two phase : the Planning Phase and Execution Phase. The two phases must be completed in order. A phase is complete when all players have completed all their actions for that phase . No player can begin taking actions for Execution Phase until all players have completed the Planning Phase .
When the Execution Phase is complete, the game turn ends and the next turn begins with a new Planning Phase

                                          The Planning Phase: Issuing orders to units

All players must secretly give orders to all their units . Do not reveal your orders to your opponent during this phase !!!
When all players have issued orders to all their units, the Planning Phase ends .
                                               
                                                  German Planning Phase

All German units receive a Move Order
Different types of units can be given different movement orders .

In this case , all German units receve a March order (red circled)

When you  give a unit Move Orders , you must write down the exact path the unit will take .
If a unit with March Order is moving along a road , it receves a bonus to it's totale movement for the turn :
Infantry +1
Trucks +3
Armored cars +2
Light tank +2
Medium tank +2
Heavy tank +1+In this case , German infantry units receive +1 bonus  (green circled)
                                               Soviet Planning Phase

All Soviet units receive a March Order.

For infantry unit +1 bonus and tank unit +2 bonus(the tank unit choose to receive only one bonus point).
 Planning Phase Completed

                                      Execution Phase:Carrying out order

The players must now turn over all their Unit Cards to reveal the back sides , so their opponents can see all the orders given , After this moment , no orders can be cancelled or replaced !!!
All units now execute their orders , following the steps listed below.

All units with the first order (Defend) execute theirs orders before any units with the second order (Suppression Fire) execute theirs , and so on. Orders of the same type always occur at the same time. To simplify play , the players may complete theirs orders by taking turns , but the effects of these actions are always considered to be simultaneous !!!

At this time, there are no orders for step 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 !!! Only step 10 "Move Out"

 All units with Movement Orders take action

                                           Step 11 : Fortitude tests

There are no Fortitude Tests to solve!!!

                                              Step 12 Update Status

All players remove marks from Order Boxes .

c -Determine the type of target (3)
d -Determine the Firepower of attacking unit(the number of dice to roll as show on the Unit Card)(4)
e -Roll the dice
 f -Compare the dice roll to the accuracy value shown on the unit'Range Diagram , based on the range to the target.(2)
 g -Remove any dice that roll higher than the Accuracy
 h-The remaining dice are "Hits"
 i -Reduce the defence Value of the target unit one point for each hit , until it reaches zero (5)
