Mechanized Command

Just as the Infantry Command organizes the foot soldiers of the Imperial Guard, the Mechanized Command organizes the motorized divisions. Vehicles are delivered directly to the Mechanized Command in the field, where they are prepped for combat by teams of Techpriests assisted by Servitors. Additional depots can be constructed to supply the facility with the necessary tools to service more advanced vehicles. Due to their limited organizational capacity, multiple structures are necessary to manage a large vehicle force. Like most Imperial Guard structures, the Mechanized Command has firing slits for bunkered squads to fire out of as well as a connection to the tunnel network.

Tactics

Like any other Guard structures (except generators, Mars Pattern Command, Tactica Control or turrets), the Mechanized Command can be garrisoned by Guard infantry squads. Players should take this into account when, and if their base comes under siege.

They can replace Infantry Commands as forward bunkers from tier 2 onwards thanks to their greater durability. This is still a significant investment for a set of guns that aren't especially powerful and must also be manned by other units, so it should only be done on large maps when shuttling troops through the tunnel network is necessary and resources are plentiful.

Weapons

The Mechanized Command weapons must be manned by Imperial Guard squads bunkered inside the building. Commissars, Psykers, Priests, and the Vindicare Assassin cannot man guns although they still take up a bunker position. Ogryns count for two positions in the bunker but only man one set of guns. The first squad mans the Lasguns, the second squad mans the Plasma Guns, and the third squad mans the Heavy Bolters.

Each gun is mounted on all four sides of the building and can fire at its own target without reducing the damage dealt by any other gun. This allows the Mechanized Command to target and attack at full damage four different targets when completely surrounded.
