Cryo

Cryo is a technology utilized by the Allies during the third iteration of the Third World War and the Uprising.
== Game effect ==
Cryo weapons gradually lower the temperature of their target, progressing from unfrozen to partially frozen, and ultimately to fully frozen. Once the cryo attack ceases, the target will begin to defrost over time, first becoming partially frozen before eventually returning to normal. Multiple cryo weapons applied simultaneously accelerate the freezing process and extend the frozen duration. Sustaining the cryo attack even after the target freezes further prolongs the frozen state. 
Movement of units and production of buildings are both slowed down if they are partially frozen.
When fully frozen, an object is entirely immobilized, unable to use any abilities, and if airborne, it will crash and be destroyed instantly. Physical and psionic attacks can shatter it in a single hit, irrespective of its strength, while magnetic, Tesla and Spectrum weapons inflict standard damage. Apocalypse Tank's Magnetic Harpoon is an exception, as it deals heavy damage to its frozen target even before the grinding begin. 
For frozen units, the rate of damage taken from chemical weapons is significantly reduced. Their auto-recovery (from veterancy or Hospital/Garage/Dry Dock/Airport) is disabled, but they can still be healed by First-Aid Tent or repaired by Repair drones or Repair IFV.
Frozen buildings are not repairable, neither through Repair Mode nor by an Engineer, nor can they be captured or infiltrated. If a building is granting Clearance for advanced unit training, this Clearance will be disabled when it is frozen. Conversely, if the training merely requires the building's presence, freezing it with Cryo will not impede the training's availability. Repair drones remain functional even while the host building is frozen, but airbases and airfields cannot be docked by aircraft. Energy consumption of a frozen building remains unchanged, but if the affected object is a power plant, its energy production will be cut off.
Cryo effect is immediately removed by Iron Curtain.
