I have a stupid question

Is it possible to control click in Halo Wars? You know, select a unit, hold down a button and select another unit so both will be selected. Like in Windows when you hold control and click on 2 files, it will highlight them both rather than switching between them. I played the demo but didn't see this option.

im pretty sure you cant. you can select all the same units onscreen (eg: Scorpian tanks); all units on screen (mixed) and I think you can select all the same units across the map and all units across the map, but not say, one Scorpian and one Warthog amidst dozens. you have to select the seperately. all if you got the space to, drag the cursor over the two seperate units. trouble is, the cursor is big and not designed for precision.

someone correct me if im wrong? ive been playing Red Alert 3 alot lately, so i may be getting it muddled...

nice to see a My Bloody Valentine fan here by the way. stunning band!

To select a small area of units you can just hold down A on the controller and wait for it to select them. This is the only way I know of.

When you hold A a blue circle will build up[ and any units in it will be selected.

Ok, well that sucks. Thanks guys.

No...you can't control click...but you can separate your choice of unit type by using the trigger. (Basic...I know...but just in case.)

Otherwise...you can apply the same technique to the "Local Unit" chooser...or you can hold down A and run your circle over which specific units you want, given that you have enough spacing to prevent selecting extra, unintended units.

No control selecting though.
