A master list of units featured in the game Battalion Wars.
Infantry
Rifle Grunt
Crew: 1 | Speed: 1 | Weapon: 1 | Armor: 0 | Target: Infantry | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Rifle Grunts are the lowest level infantry and easily outmatched by Veteran infantry. However their M17 Automatic Rifles have the longest range of infantry, making them ideal for taking down distant infantry. |
Assault Veteran
Crew: 1 | Speed: 1 | Weapon: 1 | Armor: 0 | Target: Infantry, Light Armor | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Assault Veterans are like upgraded Rifle Grunts that use even more powerful M70 Machine Guns for more powerful rounds, but lack the long range of Rifle Grunt. Because of their firepower, they are reasonably effective against lightly armored ground troops and aircraft. |
Flame Veteran
Crew: 1 | Speed: 1 | Weapon: 1 | Armor: 0 | Target: Infantry, Jeeps | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Flame Veterans are equipped with "Thermidor" high-pressure incendiary projectors that can easily dispatch infantry, especially in high numbers. Exposed jeeps are also vulnerable to flames, but have no effect against tanks and cannot reach aircraft. |
Bazooka Veteran
Crew: 1 | Speed: 1 | Weapon: 1 | Armor: 0 | Target: Armored Units | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Bazooka Veterans use powerful rocket-propelled projectile launchers that wreak havoc on slow armored units, especially tanks. However bazooka fire is easier to avoid by more agile units, making them relatively ineffective against infantry and aircraft. |
Missile Veteran
Crew: 1 | Speed: 1 | Weapon: 1 | Armor: 0 | Target: Aircraft | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Missile Veterans are armed with radar-controller Silverfish Anti-Air Missiles that allow them to hit air units with a high degree of accuracy. However in low altitudes, these missiles will often spiral out of control, which is a tactic often used by Gunships. |
Crew: 1 | Speed: 1 | Weapon: 1 | Armor: 0 | Target: Concealed Units | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mortar Veterans specialize in shooting grenades over walls using their "Groundhog" 50mm Parabolic Grenade Launchers. This allows them to clear out enemies without counter attack. Their grenades are also effective against vehicles, but can't reach aircrafts. |
Ground Units
Light Tank
Crew: 2 | Speed: 3 | Weapon: 2 | Armor: 3 | Target: Infantry, Vehicles | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Light Tanks are the staple of the military. The Herman Mk5 has been used by the Western Frontier for many years. The Light Tank is faster than its larger counterpart, but lack the firepower and armor of its larger counterpart. Like all vehicles, its vulnerable to rockets and air attacks. |
Heavy Tank
Crew: 3 | Speed: 2 | Weapon: 3 | Armor: 4 | Target: Infantry, Vehicles | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Heavy Tanks are among the strongest units in the army. The Frontier uses the Herman M1A5 or "Herminator" that is equipped with twin barrel cannon and two Hubert and Cumbernaid machine guns. However its lack of speed and maneuverability makes it easy pickings for gunships and bazooka vets. |
Light Recon
Crew: 2 | Speed: 5 | Weapon: 1 | Armor: 1 | Target: Infantry, Vehicles | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Light Recons or MX-500s are the fastest units in the Western Frontier's ground division. The units is not exceptional in terms of firepower, but is useful for reconnaissance and taking out infantry. |
