The Battle Fortress is one of two heavy military units of the Arctic Future. It is trained in a Battle Fortress Factory, but it can also be received by completing the Leads, Tools, Basic Containment, Cracking Ice, Hail Storm, Caving In, and How Long Is A While? Story Quests.
The Battle Fortress is a special unit in the Arctic Future. It has a moderate attack and defense as well as very good range and decent movement compared to other same age units. They also have various small terrain bonuses and they have mediocre bonuses against ranged and light units of its era, though the bonuses are often insignificant when using the Battle Fortress.
Unlike its current age and previous age counterparts (the Behemoth and the Hover Tank), it does not have Stealth and Force Field, but it has the Reactive Armor ability which prevents them from taking more than 3 hit points of damage per attack/retaliation.
Usage[]
The Battle Fortress is an amazing unit of the Arctic Future, as their Reactive Armor ability is very strong at defending itself against high damage attackers. Units will always have to 4 hit kill the Battle Fortress (unless the unit has Power Shot or gets one or two Critical Hits) on full health. Furthermore, the very good movement and range allows the Battle Fortress to easily manoeuvre and attack around the battlefield, which also makes it a deadly unit. It can even be used against most Oceanic Future units as well, due to the fact that despite most of them having very strong attacks, it is negated by the Reactive Armor ability, and the Battle Fortress can easily two or three hit kill units most of them in return, provided the Battle Fortress has a good attack boost. They also work very well in defense for this reason.
Unfortunately, the limitations to the Battle Fortress are units with Stealth (most notably the Hover Tank, but also the Behemoth and Hydroelectric Eel, as they also have a long range). The Battle Fortress, although they have good movement, cannot easily counter them effectively. Similarly, units such as the Turturret and Rocket Troop can easily attack multiple Battle Fortresses at once before they can even move. Any unit with other defensive or offensive special skills are also a risk to the Battle Fortress.
Against Same Age Units[]
Recon Raider[]
Despite the Recon Raider's massive bonuses against heavy units, the Battle Fortress is somewhat even with the Recon Raider. The Recon Raider's massive attack is negated due to the Reactive Armor of the Battle Fortress, whilst the Battle Fortress can sometimes three hit kill the Recon Raider, as long as you have a good attack boost as the Recon Raider has only a weak defense aside from its Dug In skill and bonuses against heavy units.
Dragon Drone[]
The Battle Fortress is very strong against the Dragon Drone, due to the Battle Fortress's bonuses against light units, as well as the weak attack and defense of the Dragon Drone. Even without the Reactive Armor ability, the Battle Fortress takes little damage from the Dragon Drone and can deal a lot of damage to them in return. Only make sure to space out your Battle Fortresses to not get attacked by the Dragon Drone's Dragon Breath ability.
Surrogate Soldier[]
The Battle Fortress is very strong against the Surrogate Soldier, due to the Battle Fortress's bonuses against ranged units, as well as having slightly longer range than them, which also means they can avoid the Surrogate Soldier's Contact retaliation as well, making them a very useful counter to them.
Behemoth[]
This is a somewhat even match-up, as both units have long range and different defensive skills. The Behemoth's great attack is negated by the Battle Fortress's Reactive Armor ability, whilst the Battle Fortress deals reduced damage to the Behemoth because of their Force Field ability. The Behemoth sometimes has the advantage on hiding on hills, though they are somewhat rare and the Battle Fortress can usually two hit kill exposed Behemoths given you have a good attack boost.
Plasma Artillery[]
Despite the Plasma Artillery having bonuses against heavy units, the damage they deal is negated by the Battle Fortress's Reactive Armor ability, meaning they still have to four hit kill Battle Fortresses. However, the good defense and heavy unit bonuses of the Plasma Artillery often means that the Battle Fortress is unable to easily kill the Plasma Artillery, so a good defense boost is needed to successfully overcome the Plasma Artillery.
