Clan squad



Clan squads are a new, special type of unit in Iron Rage. At the moment, there are four clan squads, the "Centurion", Mogran, "Tesla" project and the Prophet. They are unlocked by building the Engineer Academy, Institute of Genetics, Power complex, and Runic gates respectively -- once the building is built, every clan member immediately gains the ability to use the unit.

Clan squads work somewhat differently compared to regular units. Unlike regular units (more like heroes), they are not used up in battle; they always stay in your army, regardless of whether you win or lose the battle. However, they do have a finite amount of energy. Each battle consumes 1 energy, and when it runs out, you cannot use the unit until it recharges. It recharges at the rate of 1 energy/hour, and you can also recharge it immediately using fuel cells or gold. The maximum amount of charges that it can have is 5.

Clan squads are tied to your membership in a clan. If you leave the clan, you can no longer use the clan squads. Similarly, the unit's upgrade level is tied to the clan, so if you change clans, it will have the upgrades of the new clan.

Clan squads are also deployed separately from the rest of your army. When selecting your troops to use in a battle, they have their own special slot in the top right, as shown in the example screenshot. They also do not go into the same deployment queue as your regular units -- rather, they appear in the top left, where they can be deployed at any time (for the regular cost).
