Vehicles

Atomizer
This is your heavy tank. It is actually a howitzer so it must be facing it’s target. It is extremely powerful but also very expensive and slow so you should not depend solely on these units.
Boss 8800
This is your medium tank. Use this as the mainstay of your attack forces.
Cannon
This is your medium artillery. It is a hovercraft so it can travel over water.
Cargo Ship
Use the Cargo Ship to route materials across bodies of water. Cargo Ships can only go from Seaport to Seaport.
Crane
Use Cranes to build new buildings, or repair damaged ones.
Destroyer
This is the mainstay of your naval fleet. A moderately heavy gun on a moderately well armored vessel.
Destructor
This is your lightest tank. It is a hovercraft so it can travel over water.
Frigate
This is the most powerful weapon in the game. A single gun occupies the entire length of the vessel.
Gunboat
This is your smallest boat. It has small guns mounted in it’s bow but is primarily useful as a scout vessel.
Heavy Rover
This is an unarmored vehicle with a very powerful missile. However the missile takes a long time to reload.

Infantry Carrier
Use these to carry ground troops to desired locations. The Carrier can also be used as an attack vehicle.
