Related pagesClasses, Orders, Crewmen, Rank and File.

The Command classes direct the course of battle, marshalling groups of soldiers together to fight as a unit or crew.

Army Infantry Officer

The infantry officers govern the course of battles on land. They are able to issue Orders to gather their troops into firing lines, and provide bonuses to men who follow them. They are by no means slouches in combat, armed with a punchy pistol and sabre combination to fight with their line in a charge. They can be distinguished from other soldiers due to the cross icon on the mini-map.

For the Frontlines Officer, see WW1 Classes.
