Jump to: navigation, search

Infantry Weapons is an upgrade that is available for the Terrans that enhances the damage output of all infantry units that are recruited from the Barracks. It is researched from the Engineering Bay and, like all weapon and armor upgrades, it has a research time that is noticeably longer than the units build duration.
