+.TH Command LLOAD
+.NA lload "Load things onto land units"
+.LV Basic
+.SY "lload <COMMODITY> <UNITS> <AMOUNT>"
+.SY "lload plane <UNITS> <PLANES>"
+.SY "lload land <UNITS> <UNITS>"
+The load command carries out the loading of units.
+Commodities (like guns, civs, food) can be loaded onto any unit capable
+of carrying them (to see what cargos a unit can carry, use the show command). 
+.s1
+Some land units can carry extra-light
+planes (typically these are SAM's)
+.s1
+Some land units can carry other units
+.s1
+.SY "lload <COMMODITY> <UNITS> <AMOUNT>"
+In the first form,
+the amount argument specifies the amount of the given commodity
+you wish to load on each unit specified.
+Amounts greater than that allowed will be truncated to the
+maximum possible. Amounts less than 0 indicate that you want to
+make the unit/army have that amount. If the unit/army has less
+than that amount, more will be loaded. If the unit/army has more
+than that amount, the commodity will be unloaded. For example,
+.s1
+.EX load food 3 -100
+.s1
+will cause unit 3 to load or unload food so that it has 100.
+If it had 120 food, 20 would be unloaded. If it had 50 food, 
+50 would be loaded.
+.s1
+.SY "lload plane <UNITS> <PLANES>"
+In the second form,
+where you say \*Qplane\*U instead of say \*Qciv\*U a plane/missile
+is loaded onto a unit.
+.s1
+See the \*Qshow\*U command for a table of the maximum amounts of
+each items that can be carried on each unit type.
+.s1
+Note that if either <UNITS> or <PLANES> does not start with a
+number (e.g. it is of the form "a" or "*" or "#1" and not of the form
+123 or 12,14) then you will not be given any error messages.  This is
+so that you can type something like "lload plane * *" without getting a
+hundred error messages.
