Tempest Rising Classes
Global Defense Force (GDF)
Balanced classic military
Standard infantry, tanks, helicopters, and a supertank (MBT) — versatile with no major gimmick, ideal as an intro faction.
Tempest Dynasty
Fast, high-tech, higher cost
Uses storm/Tempest energy for faster, more mobile units at a higher price point than GDF.
Veti
Ancient / conversion-focused
An ancient race that ruled Earth 10,000 years ago, able to raise dead enemy soldiers as 'Enlightened' — spent as a resource to upgrade structures. Added via the paid Veti's Wrath campaign expansion; free in multiplayer.
