TripleA/Units and their Special Abilities Overview

Basic Units The unit stats and special abilities here are Revised and later from a well known period game. Consult the game notes for the map you are playing (Help -> Game Notes...) for specifics. The 'Attacks at' and 'Defends at' combat values determine the chance the unit will score a hit in a round of combat. For each unit in combat, a six-sided die is rolled. If the result is less than or equal to the combat value, then it is a hit. Otherwise it is a miss. For example, when defending, infantry defends at 2. A roll of 1 or 2 would be a hit and a roll of 3-6 would be a miss. Name Attacks at Defends at Movement Special Abilities Infantry 1 2 1 Artillery 2 2 1 When attacking with an infantry unit, that infantry unit will hit on 1 or 2 instead of just 1.

Fighter 3 4 4 Can land on Aircraft Carriers. Bomber 4 1 6 Can also strategically bomb industrial complexes. Submarine 2 2 2 Shoots before other units in combat.

Aircraft Carrier 1 2 2 Can carry two Fighters. Battleship 4 4 2 Can conduct shore bombardment during amphibious attacks (when land units on transports unload to attack a territory). In most versions it takes 2 hits to destroy a Battleship.
