The new GLA units include the Saboteur, the Combat Cycle, and the Battle Bus. The saboteur is a cloaked unit for the GLA that can power down structures he enters. He can also reset the Generals abilities if he enters the Command Center. The Combat Cycle is a fast-moving unit with a machine gun as it's weapon. The Battle Bus is the GLA APC. One nice side effect of the Battle Bus is that it can be used as a bunker after it's been destroyed.

The 3 GLA generals are Dr Thrax the toxin general, Prince Kassad a general that relies on stealth and Rodall Demo Juhziz, a general that relies on bomb trucks, booby traps and other explosives. Dr Thrax has toxin infantry, each with 2 toxin tanks on the back of the soldier. His other unique item is his Toxin Network. This is like the GLA tunnel except it fires a toxic stream at enemies. Prince Kassad is the trickiest of the GLA generals and the hardest to play against. He has the ability to use GPS Scramblers on his units. This allows enemies to disappear, only showing themselves when attacking or through a radar scan. Further, all of his buildings have the ability to cloak themselves, making it very hard to detect his buildings or soldiers. Rodall Demo Juhziz is a enemy of a different sort.
