- Rurouni -
Scout unit. Very hard to detect, but lacks strong offensive capabilities. Uses Kunai.
- Samurai -
Close-range offensive unit. Has a sword. Can sneak around, but is more easily detected
than other, more stealthy units. Very destructive, very fast.
- Kyudoka -
Long-range offensive unit. Uses a bow for short-range attacks, a dagger for close-range
attacks. A little more stealthy than a Samurai, and just as fast.
- Shinobi -
Essentially, _the_ ninja unit. Very hard to detect, and very deadly. Uses both Kunai for
short-range killings and shuriken for long range attacks. Can also sabotage buildings,
ships, and robot units, doing extreme amounts of damage (attack takes time to complete).
