Do nations get unique units?
Yes. Each nation is able to build at least four and as many as eight special units. Some examples: • Japanese: Samurai (Gunpowder Age heavy infantry) • Bantu: Umpakati (Ancient Age light infantry) • British: King’s Longbowmen (Medieval Age ranged infantry) • Russian: T-80 (Information Age tank) The unique units in Rise of Nations, are integrated into the game by replacing a default unit within the game rather then as an additional unit for a civilization. Unique units also usually are a more powerful or efficient unit then the default unit they replace, and have their own unique graphics and animation.
