Tanks and fighting vehicles
Tanks in Build and Conquer: the T-72B, T-72B3 and BMP-2 from the Eastern European Military Pack, what ground units are good at, and how to use them on the.
Tanks are the main ground push in Build and Conquer — T-72B, T-72B3 and BMP-2 come with the Eastern European Pack. Use them to take and hold ground, and never send them somewhere your HIMARS has not looked first.
Ground vehicles are how you actually take ground in Build and Conquer. Missiles ruin buildings, drones harass, but a sector changes hands when tanks stand on it — which is why the ground unit rework sits at the top of the developers' roadmap.
The lineup
| Vehicle | Source | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| T-72B | Eastern European Military Pack | Standard main battle tank |
| T-72B3 | Eastern European Military Pack | Upgraded version of the same hull |
| BMP-2 | Eastern European Military Pack | Infantry fighting vehicle — cheaper, faster |
The pack grants these for 399 R$; without it you still build ground vehicles from your military base, just not these specific models.
Fighting with ground units
- Scout with HIMARS before you commit. Ground units are slow; walking into an ambush costs more than the units.
- Mixed formations beat single stacks. A BMP-2 screen in front of T-72s gives you speed and protection in the same push.
- Pair with missile strikes. Break the defenders' buildings with missiles, then push into the wreckage — that is the whole ground game in one sentence.
- Bring interceptors to the party. A tank column with no air cover dies to a missile it never saw.
On the roadmap
The developers have announced a ground unit rework as part of the military update. Treat the current ground balance as temporary: useful now, but not worth building a whole doctrine around before the patch lands. When it does, this page is updated with the new values.
See the military guide for production, and the air defence systems that keep these vehicles alive.
