| Each commando has an inventory space of a total of //nine (9)// items / (link GG item stack)item stacks. This space cannot be extended or upgraded, so you'll have to plan carefully with your mission loadout. The inventory space of 9 slots //includes// the items you //equip// for use (e.g. weapons), i.e. the inventory is not your "backpack", but your total item carrying capacity. The silver lining is, in USC you don't have to worry about the weight or size of items. | Each commando has an inventory space of a total of //nine (9)// items / [[#Item stacks|item stacks]].

| Moving an item (or a stack of items) is done very simply: first, //left-click// on the item to move, then //left-click// again where you want to move the item to.

In Squad Assembly, items can be passed between units by clicking on the target unit's //portrait// while the item is selected to move. Putting down or passing items //cost 2 APs//! If you don't want to move an item you selected, just left-click on it again. | Moving an item (or a stack of items) is done very simply: first, //left-click// on the item to move, then //left-click// again where you want to move the item to.
