The War Factory is yet another important structure for the Allies which are responsible for producing Allied vehicles.

Official description

If the Construction Yard is the brain of a base, and the Ore Refinery is the heart, then the War Factory is the muscle. The Allied War Factory allows the commander to manufacture Allied vehicles. The more War Factories a commander has on the field, the faster vehicles are built.

AI behavior

The AI will build a second War Factory if they have built a Tech Center.

If Mental AI Boost is enabled, the AI will build a certain amount of War Factories that do not require a Tech Center, depending on the difficulty (1 max for Easy, 2 max for Normal, 3 max for Hard). Combined with the War Factory that requires a Tech Center, a Hard AI with Mental AI Boost can own up to 4 War Factories.

Appearances

Act One

• The Allied War Factory first appears as a buildable structure in Red Dawn Rising alongside the other Allied buildings, at the beginning of the Third Great War.
