Hi, when casting dromoka's command.. do the effects happen one at a time in the order that I choose? For example, can I put the +1/+1 counter first before making my creature fight the opponent's creature?
Yes. Modal spells have their effects occur in the order written. Other spells, like Smallpox, work the same as well. So, if those are the two modes you choose, you always get the counter prior to the creature fighting.
You can generally tell when effects happen sequentially (like the ones above) or simultaneously by looking at the verbs. You will see that Smallpox says "loses...discards...sacrifices...sacrifices". Whereas something like End Hostilities just says "destroy" once so both destroying creatures and the things attached to them are destroyed at the same time.
