Assigning Squads..

During one of the tutorials it told me I could assign squads to number keys.. I forgot how I do that.. Can anyone tell me how to assign and remove them... And is this the same thing as making fleets?

No, it's not the same as making fleets ;) Fleets are created through the tactical manager button on the ui when you have ships selected (shortcut is F, I think?)

Fleets make ships follow the flagship around. But its better to use the Ctrl groups for your fleets because assigning orders simultaneously makes them move together in formation, great for phase jumping.
