Under Siege - Game Mechanics

Levels in Under Siege are divided into two main phases. In the preparation phase, the game is paused, and the player is presented with a number of squad slots in the map, to fill however he pleases. Next is the battle phase, where the player is free to explore the level and attempt to complete any objectives. Depending on the level, there may be several mid game preparation phases, so you can recruit more units or change the ones you have in play.

Money is earned in the battle phase by killing enemies and collecting items, and is used in the preparation phase to recruit and train squads. Any squads that survive are carried to the next level. Squads also gain experience and level up through battle, becoming stronger and gaining new abilities.
