age of wonders planetfall vanguard guide

Especially the kinetic weapons tree is going to be pretty important, since literally all of your kinetic damage units can profit greatly from mods like 'rail accelerators' and 'fireburst ammunition'. The damage channels of the Vanguard are kinetic and laser weapons, which allows for very effective modding of all your units. Apart from all the units you can build in your cities, you also have access to a ton of units you can summon with tactical operations or deploy with the help of other units. You´ll quickly come to enjoy the plethora of different units the Vanguard has to offer you and most of their units are pretty straight forward to use. The Vanguards victory strategy is technological superiority and a ranged focused military. The Vanguard is also the closest thing you get for normal, civilized humans in Planetfall. The Vanguard were the expeditionary forces of the old Star Union and I like to think that they give you an idea of how the old Star Union used to look like. The Vanguard is likley the first faction you´ve made contact with in Planetfall, since it´s the Vanguard you play during the basic tutorial mission when starting up the campaign. Want to read about the NPC and wildlife units as well? I´ve made a guide about them as well, you can find it here: With all that out of the way, let´s dive right into it! If you think I´ve overlooked something important, didn´t set the right focus or just have suggestions regarding tactics and mods make sure to say so in the comments below. I very much welcome constructive feedback and suggestions in the comments of this guide. One important thing: The stats of the guide are that of the base unit without ranks or mods. In there, I will take note of special abilities of that unit, will give a comment on how effective I think the unit is (in comparison with equivalent units of other factions) and sometimes I´ve also included some tactic advice in the description. Here, you can find an overview of the stats of each unit (for example HP, armor rating and cost) as well as a description of the unit. Hello everyone! This is a guide about the units for each of Planetfalls different playable factions. (Update: April 26th 2021) New NPC guide has gone live!
