Unit Facing and Movement Speed – Right-clicking on the map causes selected units to move
to that destination. If you hold in the right mouse button and drag, an arrow appears. The
arrow tells the units which way to face once they’ve reached their destination.
Additionally, this tells the units to move to the destination at the same speed, so they
won’t get separated en route.
Chat – Chat with other players by pressing the Enter key and entering a message in the
Chat window, and then press Enter again to send it. To customise to whom to send chat
messages, go to the Alliance & Tribute screen by clicking its button next to the Mini-map.
On this screen, select the players to chat to by checking their Chat checkbox. Then, when
you bring up the Chat window, select Custom and your chat message will go only to those
players you selected. To display previous Chat messages, press the Page Up key.

Settlements Upgrade to Town Centres – Both Settlements and Town Centres allow you to
research Economic Technologies, and both are collection points where your Citizens drop
off resources. Town Centres provide the additional benefits of producing new Citizens and
researching advancement to the next Age. To create a new Town Centre, you must first
build a Settlement, then “Garrison” the Settlement with six Citizens by selecting the
Citizens and clicking the Garrison button, and then clicking on the Settlement. Once they
all enter the Settlement, it automatically becomes a Town Centre. Your Citizens remain
inside as permanent workers.
Special Units, Special Actions and the Armoury – Each civilization in Empires: DMW has
unique units. Many are special units that have special attacks or abilities. Typically, using
these abilities requires you to click on an Action button (which appears when you select the
unit) and costs the unit some amount of its “Power,” which the unit slowly regenerates over
time. Note that to train or manufacture special units, you must first construct an Armoury.
TIP: A units special action (or first special action if there’s more than one)
can be activated by selecting the unit and pressing the F1 hotkey.
Autoattack – Units that have a special attack or ability can be ordered to use it
automatically. Right-click on the appropriate Action button to turn on “Autoattack” for
that action. A circle appears on the Action button. The unit will then always use that
special attack whenever it can do so. Right-click again to turn Autoattack off. (Note that
the Autoattack feature works for most, but not all, kinds of special attacks.)
Barracks – You must build a Barracks before you can build a Tank Factory or Airport.
Airports and Aircraft – Airports produce airplanes, which remain inside the hanger until you
give them an order (up to 15 are allowed per Airport). Airports automatically repair planes
inside. To select idle aircraft, simply press the F key (on your keyboard) for Fighters, B for
Bombers, P for Paratroop planes or N for Nuclear Bombers (USA only). The closest plane
is selected first. Hold the Shift key while you press a hot key to select all aircraft of that
type. Once selected, you can order your aircraft to move or attack just like any other unit
(right-click on the destination or target). Aircraft inside an Airport will launch
automatically once given an order. Airplanes remain airborne until they run out of fuel
(measured by “Flight Time”), then they must return to an Airport. (Paratroop planes do
not return; they fly off the map once they’ve dropped their cargo.)
Wonders – Each of the five modern civilizations has a unique Wonder that it can build in
World War II. Each Wonder provides a powerful benefit to its civilization for as long as the
Wonder stands. Explanations for each Wonder can be found in the chapter for the
civilization that can build it. If Wonders for Victory is enabled on the Game Setup screen,
a player can win the game by building and defending a Wonder.
Unit Tributes – You may give your military units to another player. Simply select the units
you want to tribute, click the Unit Tribute button (one of the round Action buttons), and
then select the player to give them to.
