 Flamethrower - Flamethrowers appear in the Industrial
Age. The particular value of the Flamethrower (besides great animation) - is that
using it against enemy-occupied buildings results in the expulsion of the garrisons
of those buildings. The buildings and the units don't fare very well, either.
Like all units in Rise of Nations, however, everything has its pluses
and minuses. Though deadly against buildings and those inside, Flamethrowers, though
spectacular, are of middling value against units in the field. They are easy to
destroy, so they must be closely guarded on their way to do their fiery work.

Bazooka
- The modern infantry's answer to heavy cavalry.
Create them at the Barracks for an investment of Wealth and Metal; deploy them in
squads as the anti-vehicle adjunct to large forces. Or, on borders where you can
afford little fortification, make them a principal early line of defense against
the tank rush.
