Pseudo-long order ¹.

This order attacks the affected unit in the current region.

1. The ATTACK order is a pseudo-long order: It is short in the sense that are several ATTACK orders can be done; it is long because it precludes further long orders if a "long" fight actually occurs. When a “long” fight occurs is explained under end of battle. ↩
