What does Force Selection in skirmish games mean?

Sequel to its genre-busting predecessor, Battle Academy 2 moves the action east – to the bloodied plains of Mother Russia. When a gritty new look, great new features, and random mission generation meet battle-proven gameplay you can be sure of a strategy classic!

Experience the brutal campaign from both sides as you play across 4 campaigns – as partisan, Tiger, T-34 and dozens of other accurately modeled units. See how the harsh weather of the steppes changed the course of the war.

And after following the fortunes of the two sides you can then experience limitless battles with the brand new random skirmish feature. Customise your mission with the myriad settings before entering a unique and surprising battle every time.

Add in the best-in-class Slitherine PBEM++ multiplayer system, redesigned editor, custom scripting, and Cooperative multiplayer to create a new strategy masterpiece.

There are three settings - All, Split and None. What does this mean, please, and why is it not explained in the manual?

It looks like if it's 'split' you get some 'assigned' units and then have some points to pick stuff. If it's 'all', then you spend all the point on whatever you want.

Just to make it clear for everyone:

Force Selection:
All - player selects all his units
Split - game selects some of your units/player selects part
None - game selects all your units

Additionally, in some skirmish games you will have the opportunity to deploy your units before the first turn begins.
