Battle Nations Wiki

Say Hello to the 95th Rifle Company, and get used to never having quite enough units to get the task done! Troops and vehicles are necessary for the player to partake in any kind of fighting at all. While the player's level increases by making use of buildings to produce goods (or by completing Missions), the army is there to help protect the player's Outpost.

Units are created by the buildings listed below. There is no maximum limit to the number of units that can be owned, and they do not impact your population. In addition to a purchase price, each unit has its own prerequisite structure requirements for training or construction. When a unit is eliminated in battle, it is not destroyed, but rather out of service until it is healed or repaired. As a rule, the healing cost is lower than the build cost of the unit. Nanopod units do not require nanopods to heal, but are healed for resources. Soldiers are healed at the Hospital, Vehicles and Aircraft are healed at the Repair Bay and Naval vessels are healed at the Ship Repair Bay.

When units earn enough Skill Points (SP), they may undergo Promotion to gain rank, better stats, and abilities. At higher ranks, certain units may conduct Weapon Research to gain additional attack modes or types.

Damage Types[]

The damage type is used to show the type of attack a unit unleashes on the opponent.

Each unit has unique resistances or weaknesses to each possible damage type. Armor and base health defenses are measured as percentages, with a value of 100% corresponding to zero resistance to a given damage type. Damage type is not the same as immunity or Status Effects.

Fire
Piercing
Explosive
Crushing
Cold
Torpedo

Vehicle Factory[]

The Vehicle Factory is the production facility for vehicles, artillery and tanks. By the time it is available, infantry units will find themselves more and more challenged by new enemy units. The vehicles available to train early on lack armor, so are more prone to dying and costly repairs. Artillery have the safety of being far from the front lines, although they are still vulnerable to the dreaded Dust Walker. Upon arriving to level 18, Vehicles and Tank types which have armor will become available for training. A unit's Armor's bane are Armor Piercing attacks, but these are not found in normal critter or raider invaders.

Iron, Steel, and Oil are important resources to have stockpiles of, as missions in this range level may leave a few undesired patients in the Repair Bay. Gears and Widgets are also important for ranking, training and even repairing some units, mostly higher-level ones.
