Introduction

This is an infantry soldier. Soldiers are the basic unit in Spring-1944, and you always want to have a number of them deployed along the battlefield... Don't stop recruiting them! Along this line, infantry units are the very only units that can capture terrain flags, and are one of the most efficient ways to provide a line of sight for armoured vehicles (it should be recalled that vehicles have in general a quite limite sight distance).

Infantry is cheap, but very fragile... And vulnerable to almost every weapon of the game. On top of that, infantry can be easily suppressed by fear.

This gun, towed by infantry, is an efficient way to provide infantry support, becoming relatively cheap, with a long enough range and destructive capabilities. The main drawback of this unit is the extremelly low speed. However, this gun can be eventually towed by a supply truck, in order to quickly deploy it in the battlefield.

Even though this gun may damage some light armoured vehicles, don't expect a great performance against them.
