**********
USA:
**********
______________________________________________________________________________.
Non-Combatant: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Construction Dozer |
The Construction Dozer is the backbone of the USA army. From it all comes and|
without it thou art indeed screwed! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Chinook |
The Chinook gathers resources for the USA and also can transport troops great|
distances very quickly! When filled with rangers it can perform Combat Drops |
to wipe out all troops in enemy buildings and capture the building. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Pilot: |
The pilot comes from vehicles that had gained EXP strips but were destroyed. |
The pilot can enter any vehicle to give it his EXP! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
Infantry: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Ranger |
The Ranger is the USA's standard Infantry unit. The Ranger can Capture |
Buildings when you upgrade that tech and also can switch between assault |
rifle and flash bang grenades once you have researched that. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Missile Defender |
The Missile Defender is the USA's Missile armed infantry. It is best used |
against tanks, though can shoot down airplanes and shoppers that get nearby.|
The Missile Defender has a special Laser Guided Missile that can be used |
against ground units and allows the Missile Defender(s) to rapid fire |
missiles which tear apart vehicles very quickly. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Pathfinder |
The Pathfinder is a sniper. It is the best anti-Infantry unit the USA has. |
Any infantry unit that comes into it's range will immediately be hit with a |
1HKO shot. It even can reveal hidden units which allows it to slay those |
cloaked GLA units. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Colonel Burton |
Colonel Burton is the peak of USA infantry. Armed with a high power assault |
rifle, timed and remote detonated C4 charges, and a combat knife, as well as|
cloaked, Colonel Burton is fully capable of taking entire towns by himself |
if you are good. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Aircraft:
______________________________________________________________________________|
Raptor |
The Raptor is the USAs fast fighter plane. Good for taking out tanks you find|
halfway across the map headed for your town. It's Missiles can be upgraded to|
be more powerful and is also can be told to patrol an area and attack any |
ground or air units that come near. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Aurora Bomber |
This is the USA's high powered bomber. When fully upgraded it can take out |
most buildings in one hit. Add that to its ability to be invulnerable while |
moving, makes it a very handy unit for getting past defenses and hitting a |
target. The only problem lies in getting back out; this units speed cuts in |
half once it fires it's weapons making it very vulnerable after. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Stealth Fighter |
A good cloaked unit that is good for hitting Anti Air units because they |
won't see you coming. It shares the attack power upgrade with the Raptor and |
as a fairly balanced unit. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Comanche |
The USA's attack chopper is best used against tanks and vehicles. Featuring a|
machine gun and air to ground missiles, as well as the upgrade "Rocket Pods" |
which allows it to fire a massive barrage of missiles at a target area make |
it one of the most deadly anti ground units. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
Vehicles: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Medic truck |
The Medic Truck is one of the most useful units against the GLA and China, It|
will clean up all the radiation and anthrax that they leave behind and can |
heal nearby allied troops! What a deal! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Paladin Tank |
The Paladin tank is, in my opinion, the best tank in the game. Yes, even |
better than the overlord. While the overlord may be individually superior to |
the Paladin, when grouped the Paladins are all but invulnerable to infantry, |
missiles, scuds, etc. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Crusader Tank |
This is the USAs other tank. It is cheaper, but doesn't pack the awesome |
laser on top. In my opinion, it is much better to go for Paladins. This tank |
is also a bit weaker in shot power and HP. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Tomahawk Missile System |
This is the USA's artillery. The Tomahawk Missile System fires a smart |
missile that homes in on any enemy and does a lot of damage to them. In |
addition to that, the missile will avoid hitting if it will damage friendly |
troops! Cool! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Hummer |
One of the best units in the game! Not by itself though. By itself it is |
relatively weak. However, if you get about 5 of them and put 2 Pathfinders |
and 3 Missile Defenders in each one they become invincible to all infantry |
and a deadly force against other ground and air vehicles! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
**********
GLA:
**********
______________________________________________________________________________.
|
Non combatants: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Worker |
The GLA worker is the basic GLA unit. The worker can build buildings and |
collect supplies. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
Infantry: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Rebel |
The Rebel is the GLA's basic infantry unit. Armed with an AK-47 it is the |
weakest basic infantry unit of all. It is, however, very cheap and quick to |
produce and is capable of invisibility! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
RPG Trooper |
The RPG Trooper is the GLA's anti-tank and anti-aircraft infantry. It shoots|
a weaker, but still damaging rocket at enemy units. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Terrorist |
The Terrorist is a fearsome suicide unit. This solder will run like a madman |
up to whatever it's target is and detonate with extreme power. Very effective|
against buildings or grouped units. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Angry Mob |
This is a group of about 10 people with very low individual HP, but the unit |
cannot die till all members of it are dead, and if even one survives, the mob|
will rebuild itself. They are armed with pistols and Molotov cocktails, but |
can be upgraded with AK-47s! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Hijacker |
This is possibly the GLA's best unit! Get this unit to ANY enemy vehicle and |
it is yours! Great for stealing an enemy bulldoze to develop their tech! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Jarmen Kell |
The GLA's ultimate infantry unit, Jarmen Kell can snipe enemy vehicles and |
render them vulnerable to capture by any solder who step into them. He can |
also snipe enemy infantry and is cloaked! What a deal! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
Aircraft: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
The GLA possess no aircraft! OH NOES! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
Vehicles: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Scorpion |
The Scorpion is the GLA's basic tank, it can be outfitted with a rocket |
upgrade later, but overall is very weak. It's strength lies in numbers, not |
individual power. You get these numbers from the cheap, $600 per tank cost. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Technical |
This unit is a truck with a machine gun on the top. It is weak and lacks |
armor, but is quick and great for running down infantry! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Radar Van |
This is the GLA's source of radar. It can be upgraded with radar scan. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Quad Cannon |
This is the GLA's AA vehicle. It fires a rapid hail of bullets that quickly |
demolishes any aircraft or infantry! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Toxin Truck |
This is the GLA's main Anti-Infantry unit. It can spray units out of a |
garrisoned building and can spew toxins all over a wide area. It does, |
however, lack armor. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Rocket Buggy |
A very weak and light vehicle that can fire a barrage of weak rockets for a |
lot of damage! IT has a very long range, so take it out soon. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Marauder |
This is the GLA's best tank. It can roll over the ruins of other tanks and |
vehicles use their guns! How sweet is that?! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Bomb Truck |
This truck is a suicide vehicle with massive destructive power. It can be |
upgraded with a high explosive bomb to do more damage, and a toxin upgrade to|
make it spew toxins when it dies and can cloak to look like any enemy vehicle|
In the entire game, provided you can see said enemy vehicle. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Scud Launcher |
This is the GLA's long range anti-base vehicle. It fires anthrax laden scuds |
great distances and can soon pulverize just about anything. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
**********
China:
**********
______________________________________________________________________________.
|
Non-Combatants: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Construction Dozer |
This is the core unit of the Chinese. It can build buildings, repair them, |
clear mines, and other useful things! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Supply Truck |
This is the Chinese's supply gathering unit. Unit has no combat ability. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
Infantry: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Red guard |
This is china's basic infantry unit. This unit come in pairs; two for $300. |
Getting two at a time makes them cost only $150 apiece which makes them the |
best infantry unit in terms of power and cost. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Tank Hunter |
This is China's anti-air and anti-vehicle trooper. I can fire a damaging |
rocket at enemy units, but is weak to other infantry. It can receive a |
hoar bonus when you get a large hoard of them together. This is signified |
by little red stars under their feet. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Hacker |
China's best infantry! The hacker can make anywhere from $5 to $10 every five|
seconds, making it one of the best moneymaking units in large groups! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Black Lotus |
The Black Lotus is China's elite infantry unit. Black Lotus can shut down |
enemy vehicles for a short time and even steal supplies from a supply center!|
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
Aircraft: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
MIG |
The MIG is China's only air unit. It does moderate damage to most vehicles |
and infantry and can create a firestorm with two or more meaning that it can |
decimate infantry! The MIG can be upgraded to have 25% more armor. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
|
Vehicles: |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Battle Master |
The battle master is China's basic tank. It can receive a hoard bonus when |
grouped together with other battle masters. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Troop Crawler |
The Troop Crawler is an unarmed transport vehicle that comes with 8 Red Guard|
on creation. It can discover enemy stealth units using it's roofmounted radar|
system. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Dragon |
The Dragon tank is China's anti-infantry tank. This tank will spew flames |
everywhere with the firestorm command, or it can target individual enemies. |
The Dragon is weak to enemy tanks, but it can damage them! It can be upgraded|
to do 25% more damage by upgrading Black Napalm. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Gattling Tank |
The Gattling Tank's primary roll is as an anti-aircraft weapon, but is also |
awesome as and anti-infantry weapon also! It can be upgraded to do 25% more |
damage by researching Chain Guns. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Inferno Cannon |
The Inferno Cannon is China's weaker long range anti-base artillery. It can |
create a firestorm in large groups but isn't very powerful. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Overlord Tank |
The Overlord is the ultimate tank unit! It has two barrels, each which do |
more damage than a Paladin tank's shot, and can be upgraded to have either a |
Gattling Cannon, Bunker, or Speaker Tower on the top! With 5 Overlords and |
the proper upgrades, one could overrun a city! It's speed and damage can be |
upgraded by 25% at the Missile Silo. |
______________________________________________________________________________|
Nuke Cannon |
The ultimate anti base artillery is here! The Nuke Cannon lobs small nukes |
great distances and can level most buildings in a few hits! Just make sure |
you don't accidentally train this bad boy on your own troops! |
______________________________________________________________________________|
And that wraps that up! Hope you enjoyed it and it helped you!
