Do not hate me for not knowing but I did tried searching

If I successfully order a squad to shoot, then they can shoot again on the normal shooting phase?

So they essentially get 2 shots?

**Shadelkan**

No, they only shoot once per shooting phase, as per the rule that dictates infantry can only shoot 1 weapon per turn.

Orders happen at the very beginning of the shooting phase, and are made immediately after taking the leadership test.

Does that imply that if a squad gets zero orders they do nothing?

**Shadelkan**

If they fail an order, they can still shoot. If they receive no orders, they can still shoot. But if they're ordered to shoot, they cannot shoot a second time. If they're ordered to run, they cannot shoot, because a unit can run and shoot in the same turn (unless stated otherwise).

I your thinking of the shooty orders it changes the way you shoot, it doesn't give you a different round of shooting.
