Angry mob (Generals 1)

GLA generals used such persuasive propaganda that they could seemingly incite an Angry Mob anywhere they had a base of operations (with a Palace). Often starting with a group of five, Angry Mobs could grow in size. An Angry Mob was often an intimidating threat for an enemy commander, in particular if the GLA general concerned had purchased the 'Arm the Mob' upgrade. Angry Mobs could bring ruin to enemy structures by lobbing firebombs and firing small arms weapons at them, and were a threat to vehicles too, especially tanks lacking in anti-infantry protection.

Upgrades

 * Arm the Mob - Available from the Palace. Gave Angry Mob members AK-47s for greatly increased firepower. Often regarded as an essential upgrade.

Counters
Angry Mobs were particularly vulnerable to anti-infantry weapons such as flames, toxins, snipers or Gatling guns, and had no protection against aircraft.
