Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/Units

Units form your army whcih you control. They can be produced from factories, ports, airports and with ship planes, carriers. Different units have different costs and different strengths and weakness. How you get all your units working together will determine how well the battle goes.

The name of units below may differ depending on the version of the game.

Ground Units
The most common type of unit is Ground or ground units. In total, there are four type of ground unit, based on their armour and usage. All ground units are built by factories and can be repaired / resupplied in cities, factories and HQ.

Infantry Armour Units
Infantry type units are used primary to capture bases. All units expect those without a secondary weapon, will use their machine gun aganist these units. Although weak, they are one of the most important type of units. Only infantry type units can fire missiles from silos.

Direct Attack Vehicle Armour Units
This is the most common type and most used type of unit in the entire game. Being a direct unit, they must move beside the enermy to fire upon it.

In-Direct Attack Vehicle Armour Units
In-direct ground units can sometimes be overlooked and dusted away. However, they are able to hit, weaken and destory enermys before they get near your frontline.

Support & Miscellaneous
Units that do not fit in with the above types are listed here. This includes the Mobile Workshop which is a handy thing to have.

Air Units
Air units have the advantage of being able to cross any terran that is passible by all other units. This mobility makes them key in any battle. Air units can be repaired /resupply at airports and temporary airports and can also be resupplied by mobile workshops. With the exception of ship planes, all are built from the airport.

Air Armour Units
Air units fly high in the sky and therefore avoid most of the fire from below.

Heli Armour Units
Helicopters fly closer towards the ground and therefore can be attacked by most ground units. But, they are cheaper the air armour units.

Naval Units
Naval units are able to swing the balance in any battle that has a port and should be put to good use. However, they are some of the most expensive to deploy. Naval units are built from ports and can be repaired / resupplied by temporary ports. They can also be resupplied by mobile workshops.
