Here's what you're referring to from the manual:
"A" selects the 'All Formation' mode. This is very useful if you wish to set the targeting range of an entire formation with the 'Y' key OR if you wish to move an entire formation to a specific point but it is VERY important to remember that you cannot undo a group move so Remember to toggle this off after the 'Y' operation, or the next time you try to move a unit, the entire formation will move simultaneously under AI control and you will be stuck with that move

I guess this is where I'm slow or hanging up. I just don't understand the paragraph. Is this a simpler understanding. Let's say you have a group comprised of GO, G1, G2 and G3. GO is the commander of all of these units in the G group.

If I use the G key and toggle to GO, I now can choose the A key and point to where I want all of this group to go to? What the manual is warning about is they will continue to follow this order for every subsequent turn unless I go to this group and give them another order?
