Construction dozer (Generals 1)

The Construction Dozer is USA and China's engineering unit in Generals and Zero Hour.
==Official description==
==Game unit==
Construction dozers are built at the Command Center and can be repaired at the War Factory. Dozers are able to build and repair all battlefield structures, including civilian buildings and tech structures, as well as all friendly structures. They can also disarm mines and demo charges.
Dozers can run over most infantry like any other vehicle and are more resilient against small arms fire than Workers, but nevertheless remain lightly armored.
===Abilities===
;Note:
* Restores 2% HP to a damaged building every 5000 msec.
===Usage===
Both the USA and China begin the match with one dozer. It is usually advisable to build multiple Dozers at the start of a match to ensure fast building and expansion, as well as effect repairs and replacements later as enemy attacks begin. Dozers should be somewhat separated so that a single wide-area attack cannot destroy them all. Their ability to clear minefields is quite useful if playing against a Chinese opponent, although this comes with the risk of one falling into the hands of the enemy. 
===Counters===
Dozers are high-priority targets for enemy factions. Having no weapons, construction dozers need to be escorted whenever they venture out of the main base. Although surprisingly resilient against small arms fire, dozers can be destroyed very quickly by explosive weapons. A daring GLA tactic was to use Jarmen Kell (with an accompanying infantryman) or a Hijacker to attempt to capture an enemy dozer, thus allowing them to build American and Chinese structures, and, consequently units. China could attempt the same thing with neutron weapons, although the size and slow speed of their delivery system made such an attempt more difficult. 
Dozers were particularly vulnerable to capture if they were sent outside of the player's main complex to construct remote supply-gathering bases. A human player could ameliorate this risk somewhat by ferrying them to the site with a helicopter and back when construction of the center and its defenses was complete.

==Trivia==
* The USA Construction Dozer's voice actor also voices Colonel Burton.
* Leang's American Construction Dozers in her Generals Challenge erroneously reuse voicelines and icons from their Chinese equivalents.
* Dozers cannot gain veterancy through Pilots, who cannot enter them, but Hijackers with veterancy will pass that on to any Dozer they steal.
* The USA Dozer resembles a wheeled Front Loader while the Chinese Dozer resembles a normal Bulldozer.
