Headquarters
British Forces are restricted to this tier for a time as the next tier has a fuel cost that cannot be met right away.
UNLOCK MILLS BOMBS
 | "Allows your Infantry Sections to throw "mills bombs," which are fairly decent grenades. Use these to clear enemies out of buildings."
|
| ! Allows your Infantry Sections to clear garrisons. More importantly this allows you to defend yourself from advancing hostile forces. |
| !No special statistics. A mix between the Shock Trooper RGD grenade,and the guardsmen/riflemen grenades. |
UNLOCK WEAPON RACK
 | "Allows your infantry (infantry Sections, Royal Engineers, Airlanding Officers, and Commandos), to pick up PIATs and Bren guns from weapon racks. The Bren is a powerful light-machinegun best used at long range PIATs are a rather short-ranged, but decent anti-tank weapon."
|
| ! Typically, the Bren will be the upgrade you focus on. PIATs are good, but only as support anti-tank source. You are typically better off investing in true anti-tank sources and then investing in PIATs to support them. Commandos and Airlanding Officers get special versions of Brens which allow them to fire on the move, and have better damage when stationary compared to the Brens that regular infantry have. Dropped Brens of any kind automatically default to the Infantry Section version of the Bren. |
| !The Bren has similar stats to the Grenadier LMG 42. The PIAT deals 120 damage with a penetration and has 110/120/130 Penetration. It also deals deflection damage, so fear not, even if your PIAT doesn't penetrate, it will still deal damage. |
BOLSTER SQUAD
 | "Allows your Infantry Sections and Royal Engineer squads to increase their squad sizes by 1."
|
| ! Allows your Infantry Sections and Royal Engineers to gain a bit of survivability damage output, and repair speed. This is a vital upgrade for anyone wanting to use their Infantry more aggressively. |
Base Howitzers
 | "Unlock 1 howitzer with each progressive tech-up. 2 total. Good at denying an area to the enemy. Good long range support. Must be called in with the commander abilities Concentrated Fire or Perimeter Overwatch, or by Infantry Sections,the 55. cal Sniper at VET 1,or the Forward Assembly."
|
| ! Use this ability before a retreat or after a flank to discourage enemies from staying in a position. |
| !The Airburst shells and normal shells both deal 160 damage. The airburst shells have a bigger AOE, making them stronger against OKW HQ trucks however. |
Infantry Section
 | "Your basic infantry. Requires cover to be used to their maximum effectiveness. Can be upgraded with Bren guns, PIATs, grenades, and an extra squadmember to boost their fighting capabilities vs. infantry and armor. Effective at long range against infantry."

Vickers HMG
 | "Very good suppression and damage platform. Veterancy buffs their range whilst in buildings. Effective against massed infantry and light armor, when properly positioned."
|
| !Use it like an MG42. It can reliably slow down enemy offenses, but requires supporting troops to get the job done fully. Use in buildings or trenches to get the edge over enemy MG's in duels with its range bonus. |
| ! Vickers vs MG42: Vickers DAMAGE:4 SUPPRESSION:0.00785 RATE OF FIRE:16 BURST DURATION:2.75 COOLDOWN:3 Accuracy(Far/Mid/Near):0.24/0.51/0.78 MG42 DAMAGE:4 SUPPRESSION:0.012 RATE OF FIRE:16 BURST DURATION:1.75 COOLDOWN:3 ACCURACY(Far/Mid/Near):0.35/0.45/0.70 |

| !With the Heavy engineer upgrade from Anvil specialization ,they gain 2 armor on top of veterancy received accuracy bonuses,which makes them one of the hardiest squads in the game. However,their movement speed is also halved when they engage in combat. The Vickers LMG they receive is the same as the BREN LMG.

Specialization: Hammer Tactics
 | "This is the path you want to take to make your army more offensive and mobile..."
|
Vehicle Tracking
 | This ability allows your tanks to passively track targets that they have hit. This means that you will see all hit enemy vehicles in the fog of war for a short duration |
| ! Allows you to keep track of enemy vehicles, so you can continue hitting them with your long range AT or plan a flank to chase it down. |
Gammon Bombs
| This ability allows your Infantry Sections to throw Gammon Bombs. These bombs have a large AOE, but also a large timer (about 4 seconds). Cause vehicles hit by the bomb's AOE to be stunned for a short duration. |
| ! Satchel charges with less damage against buildings, but more use against vehicles. |
Emergency War Speed

| !160 Damage, 170/190/210 Penetration,6 second reload. Like the Cromwell,it has similar performance maneuverability wise to an M10 Wolverine when fully accelerated,making it one of the fastest tanks in the game on top of all its firepower. |
Specialization: Anvil Tactics
 | "This is the path you want to take to make your army more defensive and tanky..."
|
Heavy Engineer
| This ability allows your Royal Engineers to upgrade to "heavy engineers." They gain a very large armor bonus, a vickers k machinegun, and much better repair speeds, at the expense of movement speed when in combat. |
| ! Gives engineers 2 armor, which is more than shock troops have (1.5). This ability is great for an emplacement heavy build to support your teammates. Your Royal Engineers won't be moving anywhere fast, but they will be able to maintain a large amount of structures and vehicles thanks to their repair speed. Engineers with 2 lmgs before being upgraded will still get an lmg, giving them 3 lmgs. |
| !The Vickers LMG they receive with their upgrade has similar stats to the Grenadier LMG 42 and Bren Light machine gun. |

|
Emergency War Speed:

| !1,400 hitpoints. Nuff Said. 105/120/135 Penetration with 160 damage on main gun. |
DOCTRINAL UNITS
These are those special units that will help you get very specific edges in the game. For the sake of this guide, we are focusing on the heavier and more game-changing units that the British forces have access to.
Crocodile Churchill

| !High damage at range out of their passive sprinting ambush. The commando Gammon Bomb "satchel" has a ~>1 sec timer and 120 damage unlike the 3 second timer 200 damage Infantry section gammon bomb,but this still makes it MUCH more effective vs non static targets thanks to its short timer. It can also be thrown from camo for even nastier ambushes. |

|
