However, knowing the shortcut keys to the most frequently used abilities are important. Knowing the shortcut keys to build units or buildings help, but is not really crucial to playing well. In DC, most ranged units do not do as much damage while on the move, and Q forces the troops to stop and fire. When using the F2 stance for ranged units, pressing Q to stop and fire is probably the most important thing to do. Sometimes with Hero units it's also good to switch between the F6 (Melee stance) and the "F7" (Ranged Stance). Generally, F1 stance (by hitting the "F1" key, naturally) should be used for melee units, F2 for ranged. Stephan: The stance keys are the most crucial. What are the essential shortcuts to know in Dark Crusade?

Sure we know "cut" and "paste", but that's about it. GR: Some people just aren't keyboard shortcut types.
