You can't make a good real-time strategy game without a whole bunch of cool units to command now can you? In Warzone 2100 you are not limited to a few predetermined unit types, instead you have the possibility to design your own units from different parts that you research throughout the game - this in itself adds an interesting depth to the game. At the very beginning you are limited to lightweight tanks with weak machine guns but as you progress through the game you can research some 400 different technologies to better your war machines. Amongst the many improvements, you'll find powerful weapons such as missile launchers, flame throwers and mortars, as well as better tracks/wheels, engines and armor for your units. All in all there are over 2000 different units that are at your disposal throughout the game. You have to try to explore all possible designs that may give you advantages in battle, weighing brute force and agility against each other and coming up with the best machinery you can build without draining your limited resources too quickly either.
Thankfully you don't have to design your own buildings too, but as you progress through the game more and more are made available. There are factories, research facilities, radar towers, defensive structures and loads more.
