infantry. Alongside specialized weaponry or ammunition that works best at taking care of several infantry at once.
**Variants The Hellhound Tank and its Banewolf variant are a series of light tanks that provide fast fire support for the Chimera APC Imperial Guard and take care of anything that's hiding in cover. The Hellhound is armed with flamethrowers or the Inferno Cannon, a unique vehicle-mounted flamer that can project its fiery payload over a both a considerable distance and a wide area. The Banewolf has the Chem Cannon which are toxic waste-throwers instead of the normal multi-laser waste-throwers, spraying a highly concentrated and poisonous toxic cocktail that can even affect PowerArmor. Both are particularly very effective against massed infantry.

* ''VideoGame/AdvanceWars'': The Anti-Air vehicle unit is also very effective at eliminating walking infantry units with its vulcan cannon, not just planes and copters. Tank machine guns don't kill infantry with nearly the same effectiveness, unless it's an overpriced Mega Tank or such. Anti-Airs only have to watch out for bazooka-carrying infantry striking first.

* ''VideoGame/AdvanceWars'': Infantry in ''VideoGame/AdvanceWars'' are individually the weakest units, but can be deployed ''[[ZergRush en masse]]'' at little cost (albeit standard Infantry are better at blocking the enemy than doing damage). Thus, Infantry is best dealt with by units that can do it quickly ''and'' on the cheap.
** Recon vehicles are barely stronger than Infantry, but are almost as cheap, resistant to Infantry machine guns, and ''very'' mobile on roads and properties. When not scouting in FogOfWar, they're usually sent off to attack Infantry trying to capture properties, especially in the early game before there will be other units to protect them.
** TheAnti-Air [[AntiAir Anti-Air]] vehicle unit is also very effective at eliminating walking infantry units poor against land armor, but compared to anything else in its price range does moderately higher damage to Infantry--often just enough for a OneHitKill.

* ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'': The game divides its infantry into regular (Guardsmen, orks...) and heavy infantry (SpaceMarines). A good rule of thumb is that the higher the rate of fire, the better against regular infantry (heavy infantry is best taken out with plasma weapons), although artillery is remarkably effective at scattering and killing infantry. The Orks have Flash Gitz that excelle in shredding infantry, and heavy infantry with lots of dakka. They can easily gun down infantry from afar but they are bad in melee.

Snipers can engage enemies while obscured by the FogOfWar, but are limited in that they can only attack infantry units and nothing else, not even buildings. The Banished have Suicide Grunts and Elite Rangers, the latter of whom can attack any type of enemy.

* ''VideoGame/StarCraftI'': The game has anti-infantry measures among the three factions, but some aren't heavily restricted to just Infantry targets. Terran Firebats are excellent for killing swarms of Zerglings with their flamethrowers or raiding worker units, but do poor damage against non-light targets. The Zerg have Lurkers who are effective against swarms of tiny units too, but they also do their full damage to any unit. The Protoss have Reavers and High Templar for dealing with swarms of units, the former being well suited to the task thanks to the ability keep firing as long as the player keeps commanding them to build more scarabs to launch.
