How to Unlock T10 Soldiers in Z Route: Redemption

To unlock Tier 10 (T10) soldiers in Z Route: Redemption, you must upgrade your Headquarters to Level 30, raise your chosen troop training building to Level 30, and complete the corresponding military research branch in the Institute. Because the requirements demand extensive resources and speedups, focus entirely on one unit type before branching into the others.

Building Prerequisites for Headquarters Level 30

Headquarters Level 30 serves as the primary gateway for all T10 requirements. Advancing your Headquarters to this level requires meeting strict prerequisite chains across your base:

• The Wall: Must reach the preceding tier before each Headquarters upgrade can begin.
• The Institute: Must be upgraded alongside your Headquarters to qualify for higher base levels and unlock advanced research nodes.
• Depots and Warehouses: Must be leveled to expand raw resource storage caps, ensuring your base can hold the amounts required for Level 30 construction.
• Power Plant and Radar Station: Require intermittent upgrades to satisfy specific mid-to-high level Headquarters milestone checks.
• Troop Training Facilities: The Infantry Barracks, Vehicle Factory, or Shooting Range must reach Level 30 to unlock the actual recruitment of that specific T10 unit.

Ensure your Military Hospitals are leveled alongside your training grounds so your medical capacity can absorb potential casualties, preventing permanent losses of high-cost units during combat.

Institute Research Requirements

Research represents the longest time investment for T10 units. You must clear foundational technology before the final unit nodes unlock:

1. Complete Standard Military Research: Clear all prerequisite nodes within the basic Military tree to unlock the Advanced Military tree.
2. Raise Institute to Level 30: Upgrade the research facility itself to remove the building level cap on advanced nodes.
3. Max Targeted Stat Nodes: Upgrade prerequisite branches—including Troop HP, Troop Attack, and Troop Defense—to Level 10 for your chosen soldier type.
4. Research the T10 Soldier Node: Allocate the required Technology Badges (Valor Medals) and resources to complete the final unlock node.

Do not split research badges evenly among infantry, vehicles, and ranged troops early on. Channel 100% of your badges into a single unit branch until that T10 troop is fully unlocked.

Choosing Your First T10 Soldier Type

Resource and Speedup Management

Reaching Level 30 structures and finishing late-tier research requires strict inventory discipline:

• Keep Resource Packs Sealed: Leave resource items in your inventory bags until the moment you start an upgrade to prevent them from being plundered during base attacks.
• Reserve Speedups for Research: Alliance member assists reduce building timers by a percentage, but high-level Institute nodes take significantly longer. Save universal and research speedups specifically for the Institute.
• Time Upgrades with Events: Activate major building and research milestones during server-wide Versus (SvS) or Alliance events to hit reward tiers that return speedups and badges.
