Locking Slots
It is possible for Field Leaders to lock slots on an ORBAT. If a slot is locked it is denoted by a greyed out slot and an absent deployment button replaced by the message "Contact Field Leader". Locked slots must be used sparingly and only in a limited number of circumstances;
- For mission critical roles in which the Field Leader deems the person needs to be vetted prior to slot allocation, typical examples are specific role play characters, or complicated piloting slots or aircraft.
- For missions where the ORBAT is deemed that it may not fill and a number of roles are locked to funnel slot allocation across multiple teams, before unlocking additional slots.
In any case, locked slots filled by manual allocation must follow manual allocation guidelines.
