• Exciting and distinctive new units:

Hassassins – Deadly five-man melee squads boasting the remarkable ability of Camouflage. When activated, this skill renders them completely undetectable to enemy forces until they close the distance. Their second signature skill is Explosive Traps – once deployed, these traps detonate after 10 seconds, unleashing devastating damage upon both structures and soldiers, regardless of allegiance.

Grenadiers – A four-man ranged squad whose signature ability allows them to launch explosive projectiles with devastating efficiency against buildings and tightly packed enemy formations. As a trade-off for their destructive power, they are particularly susceptible to melee attacks...

Scorpion – The Saracens' answer to the traditional ballista, reimagined with an entirely new model and a distinct set of combat statistics.
