• Do what you want. No limits to camera, queue or level of control.
• Paint a shape, any shape, and units will move to assume your formation.
• Construction priorities let your builders work more efficiently.
• Don't want to be tied down managing every unit movement? Order units to smartly kite, strafe or zig zag bullets.
