I like this game a lot. I have a question though:

Is there a way to rotate your buildings? For instance I can only plant a 6x4 refinery with the 6 going from left to right and the 4 going up and down.
I'd like to rotate that piece so it's 6 up and 4 left/right.

Actually, make that 2 questions. Is it possible to select multiple armies/vehicles and have them all attack at once? Sure would make things easier... :-X

You can't.

A couple score pointers.
Your score shows after the mission is over.
It resets to zero when the next mission starts.
There are 9 missions for each house.
Each mission gives the chance for higher points - I think.
The missions get harder. If you lose you will still get points but not very many.
You get points for spice harvested and enemies killed. You lose points when the enemy collects spice and kills your units and you lose a few points as time goes by.

I don't think you get points for losing a mission. I had harvested plenty of spice and destroyed plenty of his army, but lost the battle.
I got 0 points for my efforts.

Bummer about the controls.

I've lost three missions. I got zero for the first one. 3 for the second and 11 for the third. It is hard to get points without winning because you lose points when the computer does well.
