The infantry is a industrial age unit that costs 90 shields to recruit and is a tough defender. The infantry represents the time in history when the defender had a significant advantage over the attacker due to the widescale deployment of bolt action repeater rifles, machine guns and concentrated artillery. Because of this, the widescale deployment of infantry units from both sides of a war will result in a stalemate due to the immediate ineffectiveness of calvary units. The stalemate breaks only when the tank is developed when motorized transportation is researched. Because of this gap between the discovery of replaceable parts and motorized transportation is quite large, the infantry dominates the mid to late industrial age.

The infantry is a industrial age unit that costs 90 shields to recruit and is a tough defender. The infantry represents the time in history when the defender had a significant advantage over the attacker due to the widescale deployment of bolt action repeater rifles, machine guns and concentrated artillery. Because of this, the widescale deployment of infantry units from both sides of a war will result in a stalemate due to the immediate ineffectiveness of calvary units. The stalemate breaks only when the tank is developed when motorized transportation is researched. Because of this gap between the discovery of replaceable parts and motorized transportation is quite large, the infantry dominates the mid to late industrial age.
