The Avatar continues its role as an anti-tank walker. It can be outfitted with up to four cannons when fully upgraded, allowing it to do some significant damage to enemy forces. As it is damaged, these cannons are blown off from the Avatar, significantly increasing its speed with each cannon lost and allowing the player to retreat the unit to repair and, quite literally, re-arm. All Avatars require a High Leveled Nod Offense Crawler to build. Interestingly, it appears that the new Avatar uses traditional ballistic cannons, as opposed to the earlier incarnation's laser.
