Stats

Barbed Wire is upgraded level by level (Level 1, Level 2, …). Attack, defense, durability and cost scale with level. The box at the top right shows Level 1; the table below compares every level and is read directly from the game database.

Abilities

• Slows hostile infantry moving through its range (up to -50%).

Construction

Country fortifications are built by the government: select a district on the map and use the country's fortifications panel. Build time, cost and upkeep depend on the level (see Stats). The research focus Fortification Speed shortens construction, and enemy spies can run a Sabotage fortification mission that halts construction in the district.

Tips

• Cheap and infantry-specific: it does nothing against vehicles, so pair it with a Minefield or an Automatic Turret.
