What if we got like a Jackal leader? Unique units: Jackal squad (replaces grunts, same stats as marine) Jackal sniper(replaces elite ranger, had a carbine but can be upgraded to have a beam rifle and shield) Skirmishes(built in main base, fastest infantry unit in the game, effective against infantry and buildings) Scavenger (replaces jump pack brutes, any damage dealt to economy buildings by this unit transfers all economy built in that time to the Jackal player) Hero:Pirate Captain(buffs all nearby jackals, has a plasma cannon and three jackal shields orbiting him. His y ability fires a shot that drains supplies and power from a unit or building) New super unit:Lich(effective only against buildings and vehicles, can Garrison up to 6 infantry units, y ability fires a portal that can be used to train new units. This is much like:Lich vanguard for Pavium, except lich is controllable. Only unlocked through leader power, like the retriever sentinel) Abilities: Banished raid Piracy:all defeated enemy units drop a pile of supplies or power Ultra mines Scout tower:drop a sniper tower that's garrisonable by two units. Has a shield and clears an area of fog of war Fortifications:drop to build a minibase wherever you wish Lich run:a strafing run from a non controllable Lich. Double the length of a fully upgraded Archer Missles. Slow beam and slow movement. Kig-yar call: use to buff all jackals on battlefield Scavenger crew: call in a spirit dropship to drop off 3 scavengers, and two snipers Raiding crew: call in two banshees and 3 skirmishers Tyrant:consume an entire base plot to construct the "tyrant" class AA gun (the ones from reach). Extremely long range, can decimate air units, but it cannot attack anywhere close to it and is weak to vehicles and building killers. Flagship:use to summon a player controlled Lich super unit. I hope you guys read this, because I feel like it would be an awesome leader!
Good video but some important infos are missing. Chain commands were possible day 1. They just improved the feature a lot. Also, when you tell a group of units to hold position they will NOT react to ALL UNITS or LOCAL UNITS select commands. If you tell ALL your units to hold position not even the sound files for those select orders will play. So to stop them from holding position you have to manually select them and give them a different order. Than they will answer to ALL UNITS again.
They need to add an option for all your units to use their Y ability at once, they could easily implement that through holding Y. would be super useful for marines.
Revolutionary video. Work of art. I am enlightened. I already knew about the hold position, which is my favorite thing ever, but I never imagined that they had all the other options
Thank you so much for this! This really saved me from so much trouble of my units randomly pursuing an enemy unit then being absolutely smashed by an ambush! Thank you!!!!
The chained commands is fricken great. They had it in halo wars 1 and it was so helpful. Not having to worry about those turds not gathering resources n stuff. I can send a banshee out to constantly scout and do loops on a point of the map to know what is coming
I've been playing HW2 since beta, been watching BTC all year, and never saw this or even knew any of these commands were a thing. I'm thinking skipping gym to go play this now. Thanks Slick
Wow! Send scout to your mini-base, supplies by mini-base, enemy base, enemy's natural mini-base, grab some extra supplies on the way back home, back home. This game just took it to a whole 'nother level!
WOW THIS IS AMAZING THANK YOU I AM LVL 27 I THOUGHT I WAS IMPROVING BUT THIS IS GAMING CHANGING THANK YOU! Subscribed I like ur take on things and ur enthusiasm. “Patches that flew under the radar” ur so right to this day people don’t know these. Gonna watch all ur stuff now
Some of these things have been in the game since day 1. A lot of people were unaware due to the fact that their advanced tutorial is about as advanced as a toaster, so nobody ever really was told by the game as they should have been.
Huh ill be continously coming back to this video till i get these commands down Cant wait to see all the vids from you guys with these new controls amd high level plays
Such a bummer because I'm not sure anyone will see this comment, but please tell me there's a way to do the build units away from base trick on PC. I've tried everything and cannot figure it out! Help much appreciated!
Can any of you help.me out please just got xbox one and downloaded halo wars 2 , it's terrible to play it on Xbox controler as I am used to play on pc with mouse. I saw some gaming mouse for xbox one so I am curious if it will work for this game so I can play with mouse like I would play game on pc? Thanks
Carlos Martínez try pausing when it gets stuck, and then resume. May take a little while to actually pause. But be patient and wait till it’s actually paused

Out of principle I stopped playing this games after a few playthroughs because i realised how shitty the controls were, Q moves have been in most rts games since pre 2000s, so what your all so exited about this that they have now finally finished the alpha of HW2... 'amazing' It now has Q moves and attack moves etc, its finally an rts with the most basic core mechanics and essentials. These arnt suppost to come out in an update, this is what the game should have had on release. Its been promoted from potatoe to ok. I'm glad of this, but find it funny how people look at these things as amazing... no this is just a normal feature thats in 98% of rts games and using these features is common place. This is the problem with releasing unfinished games like HW1. All I can say is this is 'too late' but thank fuck for whoever got this implemented. It makes it playable without making me depressed about how much more i could do in other rts games, think im gonna give it a second chance. :)

Laser Logo26 no.
Laser Logo26 the problem is I don't think that Atriox has Jackels in his army couse there aren't Jackels in the game
Justin A
How come?
U Toober
Yeah that's true, but it doesn't mean that it's not possible to add the leader 🙂
Great idea man I wanted a jackal leader as well this sounds lit man

You can also set a rally point on top of a unit which is a lovely new feature too!!
Tell me how!!
@@unknownmemer3494 by literally putting the rally point on the unit
It didn’t work tho
CottageClad it didn’t work for me either
How
They need to add an option for all your units to use their Y ability at once, they could easily implement that through holding Y. would be super useful for marines.
I’m watching this rn and this is a game changer for me lol
Only problem I have is the use of left bumper, it is one of the most unused buttons in general so it feels awkward to use often.
One of the most helpful hw2 video I’ve stumbled upon
Im.new to halo wars 2. Every single tip was something new to me. Thank u
Man quits heroin for much stronger drug:
Halo Wars 2 hold position command
Hold position works nice insides banished shields, and building units while microing at the same time is just great
Revolutionary video. Work of art. I am enlightened. I already knew about the hold position, which is my favorite thing ever, but I never imagined that they had all the other options
Phenomenal
Thank you so much for this! This really saved me from so much trouble of my units randomly pursuing an enemy unit then being absolutely smashed by an ambush! Thank you!!!!
Take a shot for every Slick says phenomenal
This tutorial actually helped me alot. Everytime I forget something. I go back to the video. Thanks for making it.
Even after 6 months this had dramatically improved my gameplay.
Thanks for making this Pat. These commands were what I was the most curious about with the update, so it's nice to have a video to reference to.
Halo wars 2 isn't a real RTS
CA: hold my beer
The chained commands is fricken great. They had it in halo wars 1 and it was so helpful. Not having to worry about those turds not gathering resources n stuff. I can send a banshee out to constantly scout and do loops on a point of the map to know what is coming
You can rally point a teleport on say highway, and units will teleport by themselves. Ive been dreading this feature since launch!

Hey Slick. Great video as always. Did you notice that you can attach the rally point to any unit? So new units will go to wherever that unit is.
Masta Mantium you just changed my world, my dude
How do u do this ?
The most absolutely phenomenal video yet in my opinion
This are some great little touches makes it all run smoother
WOW THIS IS AMAZING THANK YOU I AM LVL 27 I THOUGHT I WAS IMPROVING BUT THIS IS GAMING CHANGING THANK YOU! Subscribed I like ur take on things and ur enthusiasm. “Patches that flew under the radar” ur so right to this day people don’t know these. Gonna watch all ur stuff now
Queued commands have been in the game for a while.
Seems pretty phenomenal
Some of these things have been in the game since day 1. A lot of people were unaware due to the fact that their advanced tutorial is about as advanced as a toaster, so nobody ever really was told by the game as they should have been.
Wow very creative video love the details and more tips from this Halo Wars 2 💪💪
Huh ill be continously coming back to this video till i get these commands down
Cant wait to see all the vids from you guys with these new controls amd high level plays
The original halo wars already had some of these features. I don't know why it took them this long to add it.
Such a bummer because I'm not sure anyone will see this comment, but please tell me there's a way to do the build units away from base trick on PC. I've tried everything and cannot figure it out! Help much appreciated!
you missed out being able to place your rally point on a unit so all units will rally on a particular unit
Thanks a lot. But are any of these changes phenomenal? I'm not sure if you mentioned that.
Idk if it's a glitch but If u set rally point on a unit they carry the rally point and move it around
Thank god you aren’t cringy like team respawn is
We're cringey sometimes lmao
Unggoy Merchant. What does that even mean lmao
When TeamRespawn actually provides humorous content ( you too BtC)
How do we do this on keyboard and mouse?
That movement command has been in the game since launh
Do you know if you can assign more than one building into one control groups like infantry? Im curious to see if that is possible.
Phenomenal
Perfect now it's an actual RTS like a PC one just with less commands.
Or hot keys.
Hey maybe someone can help me out here. I want to create units from anywhere on the map. But I’m on the pc. Please help.
dude been looking for the answer to this all day. have you found anything?
Great job dude.
Can any of you help.me out please just got xbox one and downloaded halo wars 2 , it's terrible to play it on Xbox controler as I am used to play on pc with mouse. I saw some gaming mouse for xbox one so I am curious if it will work for this game so I can play with mouse like I would play game on pc? Thanks
Why is the attack move command so important? I mean don't units already attack as they move?
Well looks like I've got some new stuff to learn
Maybe I missed it but what does that attack command actually do?
Very cool!
I am having some problems with updating my HW2, it stucks at 23% and says me that the game have an error, anyone else is having this problems?
Tried uninstalling and installing?
Yes but it didn't work
Carlos Martínez try pausing when it gets stuck, and then resume. May take a little while to actually pause. But be patient and wait till it’s actually paused

Now if only we could control group multiple buildings of the same type to que units in multiple buildings
What about PC controls?
Can someone tell me in the nightmare campaign can you use the new maps in skirmish 🤨
How do you make a rally point on a soldier?
This helped my dango ass a lot
That's really helpful
I need to step my game up
You put your rally point on your units
I was wondering why I was able to select a building
How do you do these what button it's to hard to under stand
The qued command has always been in the game. Am I the only one who's ever used?
Have you tried to have more than one building in a selection?
I have not, not yet!
I can’t do the unit train thing while I’m away from my base for some reason. Idk if it glitches or not
Nvm got it lmao this does take some practice since it’s with controller tho. God damn
I wonder how u do these controls on pc..
YOU DUH MAN!
I still don't understand what the attack move actually does...
Smoochy Poochy Attack move makes units stop and attack enemy units and buildings, instead of running past or into the enemy.
Oh...okay I get it.
Out of principle I stopped playing this games after a few playthroughs because i realised how shitty the controls were, Q moves have been in most rts games since pre 2000s, so what your all so exited about this that they have now finally finished the alpha of HW2... 'amazing'
