What is Battle Dawn Earth?
Battle Dawn Earth is the oldest theme for Battle Dawn. Although the structures essentially do the same thing as the ones on Galaxy, Mars and Fantasy worlds, the map is larger so starting here first is a good idea.
How to play
Go to Battle Dawn and click the Launch Game button. If you do not have an account, click the New Player button on the login screen. This will allow you to create an account and login. The in game tutorial will help you to get started if you are new to Battle Dawn.
Resources
There are four resources, metal, oil, energy and workers. Resources are used to make basic units and oil is used to move squads around. Buildings, outposts and advanced units use both metal and oil. Energy is used for scan operations, as well as for spies, launching nuclear missiles and the ion cannon. Workers collect resources, and are used to build units.
Victory
This theme's victory conditions are either capture all ten of the relics, or have the alliance with the highest score at the end of the era. Eras last for 2500 ticks if its a 1 tick/hour server, or 3000 ticks if its a 2 tick/ hour server.
Units
There are three types of units on Battle Dawn Fantasy. There are three different unit types; Infantry, Vehicles, and Tanks. Infantry are the cheapest unit in the game. They are small and agile, but poorly armed and armoured. However, due to its low cost, it has the advantage of numbers, and a division of Infantry can easily take down a squadron of Vehicles, as they deduct 25% health from Vehicles.
Vehicles are a medium cost unit. They are not as maneuverable in combat as Infantry , but are still faster than Tanks. However, they can easily out maneuverer cumbersome Tanks, and due to this, they deduct 25% health from Tanks.
Tanks units are the strongest units in the game. Their armour is difficult to penetrate, although they are vulnerable to massed attacks from Vehicles. Other than that, Tanks are difficult to beat in battle. They have no bonus damage.
Alliances
Alliances are a group of players who work together in order to become more powerful. Up to 10 players can be in an alliance.
Colonies
A Colony or Colonies on Battle Dawn Earth are a graphical representation of each player. They are where the player builds units, collects resources, and constructs buildings. There are many different types of buildings. Resource collection buildings do exactly as the name suggests; they collect resources. Food production buildings provide food, which leads to workers, who collect resources and can be trained into units. The more workers, the more resources are collected. Buildings can be upgraded on the Buildings Screen. Upgraded resource buildings increase resource production, whilst other kinds of buildings give you access to new units and technologies. Level five of these kinds of buildings give the owner of the colony abilities, such as level five of the Unit Production building, which allows the owner to build and fire nuclear missiles, a weapon capable of massive devastation.
