Light infantry
Even on the most modern battlefields human infantry is still playing an
important role. Equipped with the newest GPRS systems, optic helpers and
recent assault rifles the light infantry still is one of the most
important instruments of modern warfare.
|
Heavy infantry
Equipped with mobile heavy weapon systems like laser-guided
rocketlaunchers and highly precise mortars, the heavy infantry combines both
the high mobility of a light squad with heavy power at reasonable maintenance
costs.
|
Mechanoid infantry (requires "Cybernetic humanoids")
Advantage through technology is the motto of these mechanoid infantry
soldiers. They are not only superior in terms of firepower and speed but also
much more reliable than human infantry and can be used on any battlefield of
this world. So for slightly higher costs you get the strongest infantry units of this
world.
|
Main battle tank
The main battle tank is the backbone of the modern army. It'll cover defensive
as well as offensive roles on the battlefield and is perfectly armed and armored
to counter all kinds of targets. Mobility, cost and firepower are well balanced
for this modern weapon of steel.
|
Hovertank (requires "Ground-effect propulsion")
Although tracked vehicles have proven their strength and maneuverability for
over a century now new ways of propulsion technology is always researched.
And using a hover propulsion engine alongside new mechanics it's now
possible to construct heavy hovering vehicles. So this hover tank unites the
power and armor of normal tracked tanks and adds in a lot of additional
maneuverability.
|
Heavy battle tank
Eighty tons of steel don't only make a huge impact but they are also almost
unstoppable. Paired with extreme fire power this monster will empty out any
enemy resistance but due to it's low movement speed it should always be
accompanied with smaller but faster units to back it up.
|
Mobile artillery
This modern mobile heavy gun packs a lot of fire power as well as a huge
range on top of a tracked chassis. It's weight, the low mobility and the missing
short-range weapons though make it prone to direct attacks.
|
Multiple launch rocket system (requires "Multiple Launch Rocket System")
This successor to the more tradional ballistic artillery howitzer is equipped with
a highly computer-controlled multiple rocket launch system, making it superior
in terms of firing range as well as fire power. And thanks to its adanced rocket
stabilising systems it's able to hit with high accuracy, even at long ranges. But
due to it's exposed rocket launching system it's more vulnerable than a
traditional howitzer system.
|
Anti-aircraft tank
This quick and highly maneuverale anit-aircraft tank is able to intervene
anywhere enemy air units threaten your ground forces. It's advanced
computer-controlled anti-air gun is able to take down even the fastest aircrafts
and the heaviest bombers, clearing airspace to let your troops advance safely.
But due to it's anti-aircraft orientation it's not suited to fight enemy ground
forces and it''s armor has been limited compared to other tanks in order to add
mobility. So it's adviced to always have some kind of escort along with your
anti-aircraft tanks.
|
Mobile Env. Restorer
The mobile environment restorer IS NOT a battle unit. Instead it can be used
to restore regions that have been lost due to very high pollution. It'll restore the
environment to a degree that it can be inhabitated again.
|
EMP Tank (requires "Mobile EMP-generator")
Equipped with an electromagnetic pulse generator this offensive battletank
deals huge damage with electromagnetic pulsemodulation, no matter if it's
against soft or hard targets. But on the downside this tank is also rather
vulnerable due to it's exposed electrical installations.
|
Microwave tank (requires "Mobile micro-wave gun")
The most recent weapon of modern warfare! Devastating microwaves even
melt the thickest armor and will turn infantry to ashes within seconds. But it's
exposed microvwave dish will be the primary target for enemy units and the
high energy costs make for huge maintenance costs.
|
Mech Battlewalker (requires "Heavy cybernetic mechanoids")
For a too long time now tracks have been the only real way of moving heavy
units around. But thanks to the developement of huge mechanoid parts it's
now possible to create heavy military units that are even bigger than the
heaviest tanks. This spiderlike platform is heavily armored and has a
devastating range of weapons that'll make it almost unstoppable.
