Positioning

Positioning your units can be like learning a build order, it usually comes down to preference. There are positions that could put you ahead of a fight however. Using armoured units to shield lighter units is a standard position. This will enable your weaker units to withstand greater damage and fight for longer. Another standard positioning technique is to position your army in an arc shape; this allows all of your units to fire at once instead of allowing a few to tail at the back of your army and not shoot. However, there are times when it is necessary to completely change how your positioning is.
