GDI

Characters

Soldier
This is the standard GDI assault infantry unit. It has only the basic combat training, but their lack of combat education is compensated with automatic weaponry.
Shotgun Trooper
This fellow is not someone you want to meet up close. Dispensing fragmented bullets in each shot can, and is quite damaging in close range, especially when aiming to the head. This guy is great for close support for offensive Engineers and for defending the base against infantry and enemy Engineers.
Grenadier
The Grenadier is a specialized, highly motivated infantry unit. Entrusted with the stan dard-issue Kestrel Grenade Launcher, Grenadiers are often deployed immediately behind frontline minigunners and Grunts to lend suppressive fire support and to punch holes through fortified enemy emplacements with their high explosive rounds. Friendly troops -- including free-wheeling commandos -- would do well to know the whereabouts and activities of nearby Grenadier teammates; collateral damage and friendly fire from Grenadiers is a constant concern out on the battlefield.
Engineer
Engineers play a crucial role in the GDI war effort. Enlisted right out of college, they are often deployed on the frontlines to perform particularly hazardous functions such as disarming explosives and sabotaging enemy structures. Without the burden of a machine gun or other heavy weapon, Engineers are free to carry a full load of explosive devices. Perhaps their most important task is the repairing of friendly vehicles and structures with standard issue Gizmo repair guns. Complex, expensive vehicles benefit greatly from this type of battlefield support. It is not uncommon to see legions of Engineers trailing in the dusty wake of a rolling fleet of Mammoth Tanks.
Officer
Versatile, resourceful, and tough, this GDI soldier is much more than your average grunt. The Officer is one of the most indispensable infantry, as crucial in highly orchestrated assaults as he is for emergency defense. Officers are mentally equipped as well; these soldiers are trained to keep their cool during tense combat situations. With a chain fed machine gun and a heavier armor, they are certainly fierce units.
Rocket Soldier Officer
The Rocket Soldier Officer is a true specialist in his field, wielding his Rocket Launcher as if a natural extension of of his arm. Deadly to anyone and everyone, extremely potent against slow moving vehicles both heavy and light armored. Great at distracting snipers and narrowing their field of view.
Deadeye
Part of GDI's legendry Dead-6 commandos, his nickname is very much accurate, he has a deadly eye, capable of immobilizing any foot soldier from afar. This guy is certainly a great asset in the war against Nod. Having no heavy weapons makes this guys extremely volnurable to vehicle assaults.
Dr. Mobius
Much like his Nod counterpart, Mendoza, Dr. Mobius is deadly with his trusted Volt Auto Rifle. Great for close support against both infantry and vehicles. Relative low armor and medium-short range of the Auto Volt Rifle are his main and perhaps only weaknesses.
Havoc
The Ramjet sniper rifle makes Havoc one of the strongest infantry on the battlefield, much like his Nod counterpart, Sakura. With one shot one kill against infantry, a sniper scope and a jet propelled bullet that can pierce armor as well as straight lines of infantry. So watch it, in Friendly Fire games. He is especially lethal against aircrafts. While not destroying them with one shot, he is a valuable weapon against aircraft assaults.
Hotwire
This Dead-6 commando, repairing both vehicles and buildings at double the speed of regular Engineers and carrying a load of proximity C4s to mine the bases against Nod invasions, can and does help greatly in the campaigns against Nod. This unit is the only GDI unit that can take out a building all by herself.
Gunner
Undoubtedly the best GDI heavy weapons unit. Wielding quite a punch with his rocket launcher. Great against absolutly everything. Vehicles, both light and heavy armored, infantry and even snipers... Great at causing distractions, defending the base and supporting oganized attacks.
Patch
Equipped with his trusty Tiberium Flechette Rifle, he can take down Nodies left and right. Stealth Tanks? Ha! Let them taste the bitterness of Tiberium from his hands! This is not an assault unit. Defense and and close support is the name of the game with Patch.
Sydney
Whether she is using her simple Tiberium rifle or the Prototype Assault Suit equipped with a powerful Personal Ion Cannon, she is deadly against most everything, the only difference is the amount of time she'll take to kill a pesky Nod or his vehicle. The Tiberium rifle is great for vehicles and infantry. But using the Portable Ion Canon is risky... She can't defend herself that well with it. But it's a damn fine waepon. Mowing down straight lines of infantry in one shot and causing gret damage to vehicles.

GDI Structures

Advanced Guard Tower
Provides strong fortification against ground and air units. The Advanced Guard Tower (AGT) fires Tomahawk missiles at considerable range, but it requires power. Because of the AGT's long range, it cannot hit units that are directly adjacent to it.
Barracks
The Barracks is where all GDI infantry are trained. Inside the Barracks there are many purchase terminals where you can upgrade your character to a better class. The Barracks is also where the End Game Beacon Pedestal is placed. If an enemy player places an Ion Cannon beacon on the pedestal, the game ends in favor of his team.
Power Plant
This structure provides power to the other structures in your base. If destroyed, all base defenses cease to function and the cost of both characters and vehicles is doubled, so you must defend it at all costs.
Tiberium Refinery
This unit processes Tiberium, giving you credits that you can use to purchase new characters and vehicles. Rafineries have their own Harvesters which automatically harvest Tiberium from the nearest field. When Harvester returns to its Refinery, 300 credits is given to each team member.
Weapons Factory
The Weapons Factory is where all GDI vehicles are built. Every time you buy a new vehicle it is automatically created inside the Weapons Factory. When the Weapons Factory is destroyed, you cannot purchase new vehicles and the Harvesters cannot be replaced.

GDI Vehicles

Armored Personnel Carrier (APC)
The Armored Personnel Carrier (APC) transports and protects up to five troops heading to and from battle locations. It carries a mounted M-60 machinegun.
Harvester
This armor plated vehicle seeks out and scoops up raw Tiberium, then transports it to refineries for processing. It is slow and unwieldy and will need to be protected. It's good points are that it can take a beating before being destroyed and it is proficient at crushing infantry.
Hum-Vee
An aggressive attack vehicle refined by GDI engineers, the Hum-vee is armed with a machine gun mount, making it perfect for routing infantry or taking out lightly armored targets. Its lack of armor makes it highly vulnerable to explosive weaponry, however, so "creative" driving may be required.
Mammoth Tank
The Mammoth Tank is the most powerful vehicle in the game. Armed with dual 120mm cannons and Mammoth Tusk Missiles, this giant is a very versatile attack unit. These weapons help compensate for its lack of speed and mobility.
Medium Tank
From its single barrel, the Medium Tank fires armor-piercing shells. It is faster, heavier and more destructive than Nod's Light Tank. This is one of the best all around vehicles in the game.
Mobile Rocket Launch System (MRLS)
Mobile devastation. GDI's longest range attacker fires 227mm rockets and is effective against just about everything, including aerial threats. With no short range fighting ability, this unit needs close quarter backup.
Orca
The Orca was designed to combat the Brotherhood of Nod's Apache chopper. This vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) craft carries five salvos of TOW rockets.
Transport Helicopter
Originally designed for quick, efficient field deployment, the Transport Helicopter provides transport for infantry.
GDI Humvee
