The UEF T3 Support Armored Command Unit is a UEF command unit, providing direct fire and building support/resource generation. The UEF uses it as support to the Main Command Unit or ACU.

The UEF Support-ACU shines as a combat support unit; its Shield Generator Field has 52,000 HP making it by far the toughest shield in the game (and giving the S-ACU 84,000 total HP). It can also inflict decent damage when upgraded with the Energy Accelerator and Heavy Plasma Refractor, but is still not cost-effective against large numbers of enemy T3 bots in direct combat. In battle it functions best as an escort for Percivals. The Enhanced Sensor System is a useful alternative for getting intelligence in the field, especially against opponents employing stealth. However, please note that even when upgraded with the Shield Generator Field the game recognizes the sACU as an engineer unit rather than a shield unit and assigns it to the back of any formations, rather than putting it in a position where its shield can cover your units. Ergo, if you want to use the sACU in formations you will require considerable amounts of micro.

The ultimate power of the UEF SCU is its ability to, when upgraded with a bubble shield, march straight onto a battlefield and safely build structures such as point defence guns by constructing them under the security of its shield. While the SCU itself has little firepower, the ability to build T3 Ravager point defences directly within firing range of the enemy is a fearsome weapon indeed.

Upgrades Edit

Back upgrades Edit

Radar Jammer Radar Jammer creates false radar images. Countered by Omni sensors. 31250 1000 7500 Maintaining this upgrade costs 100 Energy per second.

C-D2 Engineering Drone Engineering Drone acts as a secondary Engineer. Assists the SACU where applicable. 2400 120 2400

Personal Shield Generator Creates a protective shield around the SACU. Requires Energy to run. 93750 2000 7500 Gives the unit a shield of 32000HP and a size of 3. It regenerates 50 HP per second, and redeploys after destruction in 2m 50s (188HP per second). Maintaining the upgrade costs 500 Energy per second.

Shield Generator Field Expands the radius of the SACU's personal shield. Requires Energy to run. 210000 3000 9000 Gives the unit a shield of 52000HP and a size of 20. It regenerates 150 HP per second, and redeploys after destruction in 3:35 (242HP per second). Maintaining the upgrade costs 500 Energy per second.

Left arm upgrades Edit

Energy Accelerator Rapidly cools any weapon mounted onto the SACU. Increases rate of fire. 45000 1000 5000 Upgrades the weapon's rate of fire to 2.5.

Enhanced Sensor System Greatly expands the range of the standard onboard SACU sensor systems. 20000 1000 5000 Gives the unit a new vision radius of 40 and a new Omni radius of 72.

Right arm upgrades Edit

Heavy Plasma Refractor Equips the standard SACU Heavy plasma cannon with area-of-effect damage. 60000 1500 6000 Gives the unit a new damage radius of 2.5.

Resource Allocation System Increases SACU's resource generation. 30000 2500 6000 Gives the unit a new production rate of 900 Energy per second and 10 Mass per second.
