Chapter Two: Units

Star Cruiser

Requires: Asteroid mining
Cost: 7,500

Assault: 30
Ranged Strength: 30
Defense: 20
Vision: 2
Movement Points: 5
Support: 225
Abilities: Bombards

This multipurpose spacecraft can launch blistering assaults that pack quite a punch as well as sit back and bombard a city back to the stone age. With its lethal firepower, the star cruiser doesn't require an escort, and the enemy will be powerless to stop its attack unless they have developed space technology. If you're ahead of the curve in technology, the star cruiser will find your enemies either suffering greatly or begging for peace.


Stealth Bomber

Requires: Advanced composites
Cost: 3,375

Assault: 16
Ranged Strength: 22
Defense: 8
Vision: 2
Movement Points: 10
Fuel: 5 turns
Support: 101
Abilities: Bombards and stealth

The stealth bomber can avoid radar and, therefore, enemy defenses. It is a superb vehicle for softening up enemy cities before launching an invasion. For added punch, the stealth bomber can carry two bombs for your punishing needs. However, the stealth bomber is also a sitting duck if detected by air units, as it has no way to protect itself. For this reason, if you think the enemy may try to intercept it, consider giving the stealth bomber some fighter cover so it can live long enough to use its payload.


Stealth Sub

Requires: Sea colonies
Cost: 6,000

Assault: 30
Ranged Strength: 30
Defense: 10
Vision: 2
Movement Points: 5
Support: 180
Abilities: Transports up to four nukes, bombards, stealth

Interested in wiping the trade routes of the opposition? Look no further than the stealth sub, a nefarious unit that travels underwater and avoids detection, thanks to the latest in stealth technology. Not only can this unit wipe out trade routes without giving away its location, it can put up quite a fight against other naval units as well as soften up enemy defenses through a bombardment campaign. Since the enemy will have no idea where they are getting nailed from, you'll keep them on your toes. As an added bonus, load up some quaint nuclear bombs and sock it to the enemy with a stealthy launch. You're sure to be the hit of your war party.
