The arrows of the cursor in the center of the screen may change depending on the current mode. In unit control mode they display the directions of all possible movement.
In terrain overview mode, there are only three arrows, pointing inwards.
To switch between the towns use "*" key. If at the moment your cursor isn't placed on the town icon, it shall be automatically moved to the nearest town.
To switch between unoccupied units who haven't run out of movement points yet use the "#" key. If there are no such units, you shall see the blinking sign "End of turn" in the lower right corner; pressing this will pass the turn to the opponent.
Switching between defending units and mines is done by pressing "0". Also, it may be used to look around if you're in unit control mode.
The effect of pressing key "5" depends on the current location of your cursor.
