So, the thing is, when you enter a battlefield, you are usually bound to a headquarter with some soldiers around.
The yellow thingy is the headquarter you're bound to (it should say "headquarter X"). The green things around are your army's soldiers. The red things (if there are) are enemy's soldiers.

If there some square empty next to your headquarter, you have the possibility to create a soldier. It costs 40 Action Points (AP), you can have 100 AP max, and gain 5 of them per hour.
Instead of creating soldiers, you may want to use one, all the green soldiers should have a "use" button on them. Click on it to bind yourself to a soldier.

When bound to a soldier you can move him around on empty squares around him. It costs 1 AP to you and the soldier. A soldier has only a maximum of 40 AP.
Or you can attack an enemy soldier if it is next to your soldier. It costs 5 AP and does 5 damage. A soldier has 100 Health Points (HP).
Also, if you are next to an enemy headquarter, you can capture it if you and your soldier have enough AP (it cost 20 AP per headquarter, at the exception of one per army which is set to 100 AP so it cannot be captured).

The goal is to thwart the other armies by taking their headquarters and killing their soldiers.

I added the possibility to view a global map of a battlefield, here is for the public one : http://atrexus.com/index.php?battlefieldId=1&controller=Battlefields&action=showMap
