Military Hospital

The wars of the twentieth century produced industrial-scale casualties that demanded an equally industrial medical response. Dedicated military hospitals with X-ray equipment, blood banks, triage protocols, and specialist surgeons in neurology, orthopedics, and reconstructive surgery pushed survival rates for the wounded from thirty percent in the Napoleonic era to over ninety percent by the Korean War. The Military Hospital of the Modern Age is the pinnacle of battlefield medicine: it fully restores severely damaged elite units that would otherwise be permanently lost, applies a powerful regeneration aura to all friendly units within range, and enables the Combat Medic — a frontline specialist who heals allies under fire. Nations that master modern military medicine project force further and longer than those who simply trade bodies for territory.
