Ground Units
Consisting both of vehicle units (tanks, artillery, coast artillery, anti air) and “soft” units (infantry, paratroopers, mountain rangers, engineers). These make up the main battle force in every national army. Knowing where and when to apply the different unit types is vital when the war arrives. Ground units are dependent on various kits which you can read more about on the research page.
-
INFANTRY
As the cheapest and most versatile unit at your disposal, the infantry unit should not only be seen at as a meat shield. Infantry has a wide assortment of kits to choose from, making them adaptable to most battlefield situations. -
TANK
Tanks are the heavily armored and armed kings of the ground forces. Although they can soak up a massive amount of enemy fire, they should never operate alone so be sure to bring air support Adapt your tactics to specific tank types. -
PARATROOPER
The paratroopers are elite soldiers trained in parachuting and are often used as a part of your airborne forces. They can drop deep behind enemy lines, thus bypassing the first line of defense to strike at the heart of the enemy. -
MOUNTAIN RANGER
Mountain rangers are a specialized to fight in high hills and mountains. Deploy them in in the right locations and the mountain rangers will be well worth the extra recruitment cost. -
ARTILLERY
Artillery provides you with long range offensive capabilities. They enable you to engage the enemy at an early stage, wearing both their numbers and morale down before they can engage your own units. -
ANTI AIR
Anti air units carry Surface to Air Missiles and provide both your strategic assets and ground forces with a effective defense against the enemy air force.
Air Units
Bombers are used both against military targets, and to terrorize city inhabitants. They can also drop weapons of mass destruction. Fighters are used to patrol air space, to recon, and to escort other planes. Transport planes can be used for transporting units quickly, and to drop paratroopers behind enemy frontlines.

JET FIGHTER
The flying shield. These birds of pray are best used to protect your transport missions or to escort your strategic bombers. The fighter can be be upgraded to a strike role where it can directly attack ground forces. -
STRATEGIC BOMBER
The mailman. Bombers deliver among the most powerful attacks of all units. They are fragile against anti air units and enemy fighters so bring a proficient escort. -
ATTACK HELICOPTER
Awaiting further intelligence material. -
AIR TRANSPORT
The transport plane can deliver anything from infantry and paratroopers to tanks to where they are needed the most. These make them a flexible tool for managing your fronts and making deep strikes into enemy territories.
Sea Units
These are necessary for full scale attacks on other continents, and also to protect your coast borders effectively. Corvettes, destroyers and battleships make up the main warships, and they also protect the carriers and transport ships. Submarines move in stealth, and their main purpose is precision attacks on the more valuable ships.
Covert Operations Units
SPY This unit moves in stealth. Its main purpose is to retrieve covert information about your enemies (or other countries).
SPECIAL FORCES This unit moves in stealth. It can sabotage important buildings and factories. This can be used both for pure military purposes or as a means to manipulate the public opinions.
Engineer Units
This unit has special abilities. It’s used to construct and repair buildings and factories, and also to cleanup a location that has been contaminated by weapons of mass destruction. When defending in a combat, it creates fortifications like tank traps, barb wire and mines.
