Units inside the APC can fire out, however, making the APC more versatile than its counterpart, the Nod Attack Buggy. Infantry garrisoned in an APC aren't vulnerable to anti-garrison weapons, either. A Sniper Team garrisoned in an APC is a highly effective counter to most infantry, especially Black Hand, since the APC provides protection and mobility to the Sniper Team. While their machine gun is of limited use against vehicles, a pair of rocket soldiers can easily remedy this. They also can work in tandem with the machine gun when attacking aircraft. | ||

As soon as an APC is next to a structure, the Engineer can exit the vehicle and capture it. This greatly improves the engineer's survivability; however, since Kane's Wrath, Engineers take several seconds to capture a structure, making APC-Engineer rushes easier to stop. | ||
