Counters

Elite 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).

In combat Elite Infantry expends Elite 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

An expensive assault core. Pair it with tanks for the push, and bring Anti-Air, because the tanks will draw jet fighters.
