A Soldier is the most basic and versatile unit of any faction. It has medium health and medium speed. It's the mainstay of any offense/defense. They are required for just about anything. They are needed to fight against any other unit available. They are also usually the ones that protect the other classes. For instance a Soldier is usually seen protecting an Assault class and Engineers. They do not have the explosives required to take down enemy targets, or take on vehicles.
