place your mouse over an icon, if you have enough power to get it, the number

power for the activity, the initial progress bar fills quickly with green

However, you
may have noticed the white ammo bar below its health bar as you start
attacking.</p><p>Unlike ground units, which reload automatically, VTOLs carry a limited amount
of ammo. Once that ammo runs out, the VTOL can’t attack until it refuels. A
VTOL out of ammo will automatically find a VTOL rearming pad to rearm and
repair itself (and will resume attacking once fully rearmed), or it can be
manually rearmed by selecting it and clicking on a rearming pad.</p><p>VTOLs will not attack anything automatically. However, by selecting a VTOL and
alt+clicking on an area, a VTOL will patrol the area between its current
location and the clicked location, and attack anything in the vicinity.
Alternatively, they can be assigned to VTOL strike towers and VTOL CB towers,
which will cause them to function similarly to <a class="link" href="#_artillery_and_sensors" title="15. Artillery and Sensors">artillery assigned to sensor towers</a>.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="_vtol_weapons"></a>7.4. VTOL weapons</h3></div></div></div><p>Most weapons have a VTOL equivalent, which does approximately twice as much

<span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="images/www.png" alt="URL" /></span> <a class="ulink" href="http://guide.wz2100.net/w/#vtolbombs" target="_top">bomb weapons</a>.
These weapons are the equivalent of artillery, and are very powerful.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="_defending_against_vtols"></a>7.5. Defending against VTOLs</h3></div></div></div><p>VTOLs are not ground-based units, so most ground weapons cannot hit them.

an only be hit by either anti-air (often abbreviated AA) (can only hit air) or
versatile (can hit air or ground) weapons.</p><p>There are only a few weapons that are versatile: machineguns, lasers, and
Mini-Rocket Pod. Rockets and missiles are also versatile, but only when mounted
on a cyborg or VTOL. In addition to being uncommon, versatile weapons do not do
as much damage to VTOLs as dedicated anti-air, so having some AA is
recommended.</p><p>There are three types of dedicated AA. In order of powerfulness, they are: Flak
(Hurricane, Cyclone, Whirlwind), SAM (Avenger, Vindicator), and Stormbringer.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="_other_orders"></a>7.6. Other orders</h3></div></div></div><p><span class="emphasis"><em>Patrol</em></span>: In the Unit Orders box (right-click, remember?), there are a couple of

tiles without upgrades). However, even the lowly mortar has an 18-tile weapon
range. To use it, players need to use sensors.</p><p>Artillery structures are the easiest. Simply build a sensor tower, and if the
sensor tower is targeting something within your artillery structures' weapon
range, they will fire at it. An artillery tank, however, needs to be explicitly
assigned to a sensor to function. Select the artillery tanks, then click on a
sensor to assign the tank to the sensor.</p><p><span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="images/artillery-sensor.jpg" alt="images/artillery-sensor.jpg" /></span></p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>Artillery assigned to a sensor. Notice the * next to them, which indicates that
they are assigned.</em></span></p><p>Once the artillery is assigned, if it is assigned to a sensor tower, that tower
will target enemies that come in range automatically.</p><p>If it is assigned to a sensor tank, the sensor can be used to attack enemies by
selecting the sensor and targeting an enemy. All artillery assigned to the
sensor will attack its target.</p><p><span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="images/artillery-far-away.jpg" alt="images/artillery-far-away.jpg" /></span></p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>Notice that the artillery can be very far away — only the sensor turret needs

moving them all.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="_cb_sensors"></a>15.3. CB sensors</h3></div></div></div><p><span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="images/cb-sensor.png" alt="images/cb-sensor.png" /></span></p><p>A CB (Counter-Battery) tower or turret is used similarly to a standard sensor;
however, it serves a specialized purpose: To counter-attack enemy artillery.</p><p>Normal sensor towers will direct your artillery to attack whatever is nearby,
but CB towers will direct your artillery to attack any artillery attacking you,
even if they are further away from you than other targets. If you have both a
CB tower and a sensor tower, artillery structures will attack CB targets first,
and only other targets once you are no longer being bombarded by enemy
artillery.</p><p><span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="images/cb-sensor-vtol.png" alt="images/cb-sensor-vtol.png" /></span></p><p>A VTOL CB sensor does the same thing, except to VTOLs assigned to it.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="_sensor_towers"></a>15.4. Sensor towers</h3></div></div></div><p>Sensor towers and sensor units have several major differences:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem">
