What is the role of the Commander?
The Commander will be the anchor to a successful game of Savage. The Commander will start by creating workers and ordering them to gather resources. During this time, players in Action Mode will be scouting for enemies, hunting NPCs and taking a position in order to quickly react to the Commander’s impending assignments. For example, the Commander may want to send the Action Mode players that choose to take advantage of his leadership to protect supply chains or conversely cut off the enemy’s. As you would do in a traditional RTS, the Commander will select an Action Mode player and assign them to attack an enemy. In order to notify the player in Action Mode, a beam of light will appear on his screen as well as a message to attack a particular target. Finally, this works similarly for moving Action Mode players around the map. The Commander will supply waypoints for the Action Mode units to go to. The Commander will also have a number of predefined messages to send to Action Mode player
