| An **Undisciplined** unit cannot be put into a simple formation. The different formations squads can be in are **Skirmish**, **Box**, **Line**, **Sparse Line**, and **Double Line**; Undisciplined units can __only__ be in the Skirmish formation. The Skirmish formation spreads units out in a checkerboard pattern, which may be useful in that it reduces the effectiveness of wide-AOE [[Magic]], but it also reduces the Morale of those in the formation by 1. | An **Undisciplined** unit cannot be put into a simple formation.

| More importantly, Undisciplined units **cannot be given orders**. Squads without Undisciplined units can be issued a general command before battle, such as who to attack, whether to favor melee or missile combat, and/or when to start engaging the enemy. Squads with __even one__ Undisciplined unit cannot be given a directive, and so their members will decide what to do on their own. | More importantly, Undisciplined units **cannot be given orders**.
