== Light Infantry ==

Cheap, mass-produced foot soldiers, the backbone of any land army. Weak alone but effective in numbers and quick to replace.

'''Domain:''' Land · '''Role:''' Line combat · '''Ammunition:''' Rifle Rounds

== Stats ==

Higher tiers of the Light Infantry are unlocked through [[Research|research]]; each tier has its own attack, defense, speed, range, volume, build time, cost and upkeep.

{{UnitTiers|code=light_infantry}}

== Counters ==

Light Infantry has no hard counters and is not a hard counter to anything, it trades on raw stats.

''Hard-countered units take extra losses and cannot retaliate against the unit countering them. See [[Units#Counters]] for the full matrix.''

== Production ==

Trained at the [[Barracks]]. Build time, cost and upkeep depend on the tier (see [[#Stats|Stats]]).

In combat Light Infantry expends '''Rifle Rounds'''. Ammunition is crafted in batches at ammunition buildings ([[Ammunition Factory]], [[Ordnance Plant]]); keep the army supplied to stay effective in prolonged fighting.

== Movement and transport ==

As a land unit it moves only across land nodes. A route that crosses water is clipped at the last land node before the crossing.

To cross water, load it aboard a [[Naval Cargo]] or [[Plane Cargo]].

== Tips ==

* Garrison a district you have just captured with light infantry: it holds ground much better than it takes it, and its upkeep is the lowest of any land unit. Let artillery deal the damage.
* It has no hard counter, so it is never singled out by jet fighters the way tanks are.

== See also ==

* [[Units]]: all units, counter matrix and stances
* Transports: [[Naval Cargo]], [[Plane Cargo]]
