Trooper Recruit

The **Trooper Recruit** is one of the first and most basic military units available in the game. It can be created at the Troop Center from the Tech Level 1 on. The Trooper Recruit has a ranged attack and relatively weak stats, being easily countered by most other military units and buildings. It is useful for early-game raids or rushes on enemy Workers, but should be kept away from Command Centers.

> "*This is your basic fighting unit at Tech Level 1. It is ineffective against most forces except workers and other Trooper Recruits.*"
