The Tech Turret is a neutral defensive structure that, when captured by an Engineer, is basically a rotatable cannon turret which can effectively engage vehicles.

Official description[]

An anti-armor turret used to destroy vehicles. A cheap, maintainable defense, which requires no power.[1]

Overview[]

The Tech Turret is simply a capturable Gun Turret but has more hit points and slightly stronger in firepower. It can engage standard vehicles (including main battle tanks) on its own, but will have difficulty taking down heavier vehicles.

Unfortunately, if the Tech Turret is by itself, enemy Engineers can capture it without fail, as the Tech Turret can do little against infantry, even the most vulnerable ones.

Appearances[]

In the campaign, the Tech Turret is an uncommon structure that first appears in early Act One missions. They become rarer in Act Two, as they are replaced by superior anti-vehicle options, in particular the Tech Cannon Bunker.

Challenges[]

  • In most challenges, the players will have at least two Tech Turrets near their starting locations.

Trivia[]

The Tech Turret shares its firing sound with the Grizzly Tank in the original game.
