Terra subrace defensive support. Weaker combat stats than standard defensive infantry, but each surviving medic brings 1 fallen friendly unit back home safely.
Use this unit in an attacking force or defending garrison. Choose its damage category against the enemy's defenses, and compare its protection with the attacks you expect to face.
Each surviving medic can save one fallen friendly unit, prioritizing higher-value casualties. Pair medics with troops worth recovering; dead medics provide no saves.
Its highest per-unit defense is against kinetic attacks; its lowest is against energy. Reinforce the weaker matchup with suitable defenders instead of assuming one troop type covers every threat.
For a different attack category in this Race's roster, compare Rail Guard, Siege Foundry, Giga-Mech. Mixing categories changes which enemy defenses matter; it is not a free damage bonus.
Train at ⚔️ Barracks after completing Field Medic Protocols research. The baseline for one unit is 70 seconds at trainer level 1, or 54 seconds at level 10, before labor and other training modifiers.
Higher trainer levels shorten the queue but do not remove recruitment costs. This unit's listed recruitment inputs are raw resources, so it does not need a component stockpile. Keep the hourly upkeep listed below funded as the force grows.
Compare this unit with the rest of its Race roster. Its statistics and mission role determine its strengths; there is no blanket racial damage-vulnerability multiplier.
