Support



Support units are the last kind of unit available to you in Iron Rage, and they are different from the other units in the game -- they are not troops which fight on the battlefield, but rather things like artillery barrages which are dropped directly on a given point on the battlefield. Some supports will hurt enemy troops, while others will benefit your own troops. Careful use of supports can easily make the difference between victory and defeat in a close battle.

The most basic support is the artillery bombardment, which can be built at your artillery factory. As you research more technology, other supports become available for building, including mustard gas, healing, discharge, and dark ritual. Once you unlock Ardheim, you can also build supports such as turrets, which are dropped on the battlefield like other supports but then remain and fight like a normal (stationary) unit.
