IFV (The Clash)

The IFV is a tier 2 armored vehicle of the Republic. It resembles the modern day German Puma IFV, but without the tracks and instead uses hover engines.

Requirements
The Republic player just needs a Vehicle Factory built.

Lore
A fairly new addition to the Republic's arsenal, it has none-the-less proved to have been a smart investment, being able to out-gun anything it can't out-run, and out-run anything it can't out-gun.

Equipment
IFVs are armed with a high-energy plasma repeater, a special laser cannon to intercept missiles and magic bolts, and a multi-purpose missile launcher. It can transport up to 6 Republic infantry.

They can be later upgraded in such a way one troop can change the main weapon, similar to IFVs in C&C Red Alert.
