Armored is a mask, a property used by the game for identifying what a unit is when performing damage calculations and determining what special abilities can be used against such a unit.
The Armored mask (the "A" mask) includes the following units and unit categories:
- Advanced Battleship
- Aircraft Carrier
- Auto Plant units (Cavalry)
- Tanks
- Ranged Cavalry (from the
Industrial Age and beyond) - Some campaign-exclusive units (Patrol Jeep, Humvee)
Gameplay[]
Although this might seems like a bonus, in reality it can be a disadvantage damage-wise, because Armored units only do 66% damage against buildings and take more damage (180%) from Armor-Piercing units (with the "U" mask). However, Machine Guns only deal 50% damage to Armored units.
