Unit Roster

This page is to explain how to define each units are defined in a battle and roles they portray. **NOTE** that most of these would be considered optional for verses that do not explicitly define how their units work.

## Listing the Units

When making the army listing of units, the units can come from any source that is not considered "fanfiction".

* The term used here refers to individual ideas for units that do not appear in any source material.

## Unit Types

### Special/Elite

Special or Elite units that possess some sort of traits, skills and/or abilities that would put them above the standard Infantry units, or would serve an alternate role such as support/healing or hax utilization, typically they few in number compared to Infantry or other unit types. These can either be shown in real life or fiction:

The units that are defined by what kind of rules they function in a battle should be noted, these are a few examples what certain units can do:

## Description

Because each army will have their own individual or unique characteristics, features or appearances that is defined by their factions, species, etc.. please describe what features certain units are that make them what type.

Ex. Zerglings from StarCraft are considered Close Quarters Infantry because of it's fast moving and claws and spikes that protrude out of it's appendages.

## NOTES

Until calcs or upgrades that are not made revolved around for the majority of the standard, non-character units, which will be set to certain standard stats. This would be the following Stats for each types:

* *Infantry/Special/Elite*: DC: Street/Wall/Room, Speed: Athletic/Peak Human, Dura: Street/Wall
* *Cavalry/Large*: DC: Wall/Small-Large Building, Peak Human-Superhuman, Dura: Wall/Building
* *Vehicles*: DC: Wall/Building/Multi-City Block, Speed: Superhuman/Subsonic, Dura: Building/Multi-City Block

These stats while the standard for any units can vary depending on information presented, discussion, and sometimes based on calcs for means of destruction, weapons and powers.

Units can have their own Calc/Feat pages when discussed would apply their own stats that would deviate from the standard stats above.

This is to avoid any inflation of stats when trying to compare them to actual known characters/Champions/Leaders, while actual characters can be ranked as certain units, they would be sometimes "unique" as they have shown stats or feats that would make them different from other members of the same unit who are known or established in the verse other than serving as a soldier. (*when discussing actual scaling to characters, the best option would be to go with any shown low end*)

* **Ex. Naruto is considered a Genin Still by the end of the Fourth Great Ninja War, and he managed to defeat God-like beings, something that a regular Genin, Jonin could logically not do, so their stats would be completely separate.**

However, if said stats are not defined by equipment, powers, abilities, physiology, training, etc. that completely deviate from the same unit or solely acts contradictory to how said unit functions, and they are **100%** the same as the unit they are a part of, then they should get said stats and feats all together.

* **Ex. A Famous US Soldier with so many medals would not make him so much different in stats compared to his other fellow soldiers, just his skill set.**

If a Unit gains some sort of empowerment from another Unit, it would sometimes be hard to scale to known characters or other units, but if they are empowered by another known character, they can sometimes scale.

Sometimes if a character is overwhelmed by units, they could scale but divided by how many participants to attacked said character.
