Command & Conquer: Generals – GLA Structures

generals

 

The elusive Global Liberation Army relies on hit-and-run attacks performed by cheap and expendable units. Some of their vehicles are even able to use the scrap materials from destroyed enemy vehicles to boost their firepower. Their toxin weaponry, particularly their superweapon, is devastating when deployed correctly. However, they have a total absence of an air force and essentially produce in a persistent low-power mode, as they do not have any power plant equivalents.
