spidyfan,
Work on the basics. Lean how to load a graphic and then move a piece. Do some tutorial, look at the code base examples.
You can't make a multi-player Warcraft game as you first attempt. Try making a two player Tick tack toe, then Chinese Checkers.

As for moving your piece:
MOVE SPRITE
This command will move the sprite a specified distance. Used in combination with the ROTATE SPRITE command a very simple top-down player character can be achieved very easily. The velocity must be a real value.

SYNTAX
MOVE SPRITE Sprite Number, Velocity

Did you make a sprite? You do that using the sprite command.

Well, I'm trying aren't I.....

Oh wow, spidyfan you sound just like me when I started out here! I wanted to make big huge games, listen to these dudes, and start small! Once you learn all the little tricks, you will be able to take on much bigger projects, trust me.
