With Drill promotions they become better, and if you specialise them, making forest and hill units, they can become deadly specialist troops. They are good as mobile homeland defence, as by now you probably have large networks of railway which allow ten tiles of movement per turn. They should be used for field duty, such as sieges and taking on stacks away from your cities, but not for slogging matches in your own cities and defensive positions. They get a bonus against other gunpowder units, so they should be a priority for updating your rifles very quickly. Infantry are the basic fighting unit of the early modern age they are cheap to produce and a step up from riflemen.
I will try to deal with these in order, before moving on to more complex strategies. You can get infantry, artillery, machine guns and tanks from the very start of the modern age, to which are added marines, paratroopers, SAM infantry, gunships, modern armour, mobile SAM units and mobile artillery and by the future age mechanised infantry, which is the most powerful gunpowder unit in the game. It follows, therefore, that your strategies must be more developed as well in order to win.īy now, land units are fairly diverse. States are more developed, weapons are more developed, and economies are more developed than at any other point in history.
War in the modern age is one hell of a lot more complex than any other era. Thanks are due to all of the people who have written articles on anything discusses herein. It is by no means finished, comments and suggestions are appreciated. This article is an attempt to make a guide to warfare in ages beyond Industrial, termed from now on ‘modern’.
