Build an Army Gamepasses

Nuke is an optional skip. Sprint is offsale. Nobody has to buy a pass to march.

Last updated:

Build an Army is free on Roblox. The barracks, the deploy loop, rare and legendary unlocks, and offline earnings all exist without a credit card. Gamepasses are optional account power. They are not barracks units, they are not a rarity band, and they are not homework. If a younger player is on the plot, the honest line is that they can finish a march without spending Robux.

This page only documents what catalog trackers have actually listed for LiveForFun’s place 76904351006435: Nuke! (OP) around 7,214 Robux, and Sprint (Permanent) marked offsale. Prices move. Confirm the live figure in the Roblox store before you tap buy. We will not invent extra passes, fake discounts, or “must buy” bundles.

For troop ranks, stay on the unit tier list. For how a pass fits a spending plan, see best army comps. For the rest of the roster, use the units hub.

Nuke! (OP) — optional pay-to-skip

Nuke is the expensive pass. Community catalogs list it near 7,214 Robux and label it OP. That label is marketing, not a requirement. Treat Nuke as a skip button you fire while you are in the server, not as a unit you place in the barracks and not as an overnight farm.

When Nuke is a bad purchase. If the plot still sends a single unupgraded infantry into sergeant packs, Nuke is a C-tier pattern on the unit tier list. You are paying real money to skip a lane you have not learned. The first sergeant fight is supposed to teach you to buy a damage upgrade. A firework does not teach that.

When Nuke can wait. After the core infantry clears sergeants, after a rare that outwalks the core is in the column, and after you can undeploy for more than the last upgrade cost, a skip button is at least skipping toward something. It is still optional. It still does not replace rare and legendary units. It still does not print leftover offline value by itself.

What Nuke is not. It is not a legendary. It is not a named troop. It is not a reason to ignore the barracks guide. Kids do not need it. Adults who want it should buy it because they like skips, not because a wiki said the game is unwinnable without it. The game is not unwinnable without it.

If you do buy Nuke, keep the S-tier core. A skipped lane with nothing walking it is still an empty lane.

Sprint (Permanent) — offsale

Sprint (Permanent) is listed as offsale. You cannot plan a roster around a pass the store will not sell you. Do not hunt third-party keys. Do not tell anyone they missed a required speed pass. If LiveForFun puts Sprint back on sale, this page will say so after the catalog changes. Until then it is a historical listing, not a shopping list.

Movement convenience is not a rarity band. Even if Sprint returns, it would still sit in account power, next to Nuke, behind the barracks loop.

How passes interact with the actual army

Deploy, undeploy, and march distance are still money. Offline combat is still leftover column value. A pass can change how fast you feel, or how loudly you skip a pack. It cannot rewrite the S–D rules:

  • Damage-upgraded infantry that clears sergeants stays S.
  • Rares that outwalk infantry stay A.
  • Extra unupgraded bodies stay B soak.
  • Ignoring upgrades, or dumping cash on Nuke with no farm, stays C.
  • A lone unupgraded send into sergeant packs stays D.

If a pass tempts you to skip those rules, the pass is playing you. Put it back and open best army comps instead.

Buying rules this wiki will not break

  1. Never required. The experience launched free on 7 August 2025. Four-player servers, barracks units, and offline earnings are the product.
  2. Never for kids as a must-buy. If you are helping a younger player, teach Deploy, damage upgrades, and undeploy. Do not open the Robux store for them as if it were a quest.
  3. Never invented. We will not add VIP, 2x cash, or other passes copied from different army tycoons. If a new pass appears on this place, it has to show up in the catalog first.
  4. Never a substitute for patches. Passes changing price or going offsale is catalog news. Gameplay changes belong on the updates hub and patch history.

Confirm the Robux figure in the official store. Catalog mirrors lag. 7,214 is the figure this wiki recorded for Nuke; it is not a coupon.

If a younger sibling is watching, the honest line is that Nuke is a skip button, not a homework assignment.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Do I need to buy Nuke to play Build an Army?

No. The game is free. Nuke at about 7,214 Robux is optional pay-to-skip. Younger players never need to buy it.

What does Nuke actually do for the army?

Treat it as a skip, not a barracks unit and not an offline farm. Buying it with no upgraded core is a C-tier pattern on the unit tier list.

Can I still buy Sprint (Permanent)?

Catalog listings mark Sprint (Permanent) offsale. Do not plan a roster around it, and do not hunt unofficial sellers.

Are gamepasses the same as rare or legendary units?

No. Rares and legendaries are barracks bands with unique abilities. Passes are account power. See rare and legendary units.

Should I buy a pass before I understand the shop?

No. Learn the loop in the barracks guide and a spending order on best army comps first.

Will this page list more passes later?

Only if they appear on this LiveForFun place. We will not copy VIP rows from other army games.
