WARDOGS Spawn Vehicle (APC) Guide
The spawn vehicle in WARDOGS is an armoured APC that appears at every team's base once a team reaches 20 points. Teammates can spawn directly into it, so driving it to the front line gets your team into the fight fast. If you are the one who drives it forward, you earn cash and XP for every player who spawns on it, which makes it one of the best passive earners and Driver farms in the game. To shut down an enemy APC, shoot the rotating antenna on top, no explosives needed.
How the spawn APC works
After the first team hits 20 points on the board, a spawn APC drops in at all three bases. It is slow and clunky but heavily armoured, and any teammate can choose to spawn inside it from the base terminal. That turns it into a mobile forward spawn, which matters on maps this large where running to combat takes minutes. There is only one per team at a time, and if it is destroyed it comes back on a cooldown of a couple of minutes, so do not waste it.
Why driving it is free money
Take the APC from the base to the combat zone yourself and you get paid for every teammate who spawns on it, plus more when they survive. It also feeds Driver XP the whole time. Park it close to the action but not on top of it, so it lives long enough to be worth the trip, and switch into the driver seat for a third-person view of the area around you. It even has a smoke button to cover your teammates as they deploy. Drive it into the Hot Zone and everything, money included, counts for more.
Keep it alive, and hunt theirs
The APC survives gunfire but dies to explosives, so bring fuel and a wrench to keep it running and repaired, and watch for enemy C4, rockets, and helicopters carrying missile launchers, which love to hit it on the way to the front. When you spot an enemy APC, you do not need an explosive to stop it: shoot the antenna rotating on top and its ability to spawn infantry shuts off completely. That single kill can starve their whole push.
Only the player who drives the APC out earns the spawn income, so be at your base ready to take it as it appears. If someone else drives it and abandons it, you can take over, but you will not get the spawn payments they earned by driving it in.
