POV you vote motorized unit in Squad
7APCs for everyone!
Music used: Red Alert 2 - Hell March 2
Unit information - Motorized
The Motorized Unit gives a faction access for many wheeled APCs (Armored Personal Carriers), which are also IFVs (Infantry Fighting Vehicles). It still has an MBT (Main Battle Tank) spawn as well as a Transport helicopter spawn for the team.
It is considered to be a safer bet than the Armoured Unit, since it is not as punishing and works as a counter. (Tank loss = -15 tickets | APC loss = -10 tickets). It gives alot of light vehicles as well.
Not to be confused with the Mechanized Unit: A more armoured and anti-tank capable APC unit.
The Motorized is not as armoured as the Mechanized.

FROM WIKIPEDIA
" Squad borrows many of its gameplay aspects from its predecessor, Project Reality, with its game modes placing heavy emphasis on team coordination.Matches take place on extremely large realistic battlefields up to 36 km2 (14 sq mi) in size, facilitating the use of a wide variety of vehicles such as main battle tanks, armored personnel carriers, transport trucks, and helicopters. The two teams, utilizing vehicle and infantry warfare, compete over various objectives, such as strategic locations to hold or weapon caches to destroy.[6] To facilitate maneuver warfare, squad leaders can construct forward operating bases around the map, which provide a team-wide location for soldiers to respawn and must be kept supplied by a logistics network.
Both teams are kept in check by the "ticket" system, which simulates combat effectiveness. The loss of strategic locations, destruction of forward operating bases or vehicles and soldier deaths all remove tickets from a team's pool. A match ends once a team's ticket pool has been reduced to zero. A team that fails at defending too many of its strategic objectives will begin to lose tickets rapidly, starting at a loss of one per minute and capping out at a maximum of ten per minute. As such, teams have the ability to achieve victory in multiple ways, such as exhausting the enemy's ability to fight or by completing all of their tactical objectives. "
" Development of Squad was announced in October 2014 when Project Reality developer Sniperdog made a post on the Project Reality forums. The announcement carried the news that the team of fifteen was making a spiritual successor to Project Reality on Epic Games' Unreal Engine 4.
The game's Kickstarter campaign started in May 2015. It featured six backer levels with various rewards such as merchandise, in-game rewards, and pre-alpha testing access.Five days after the Kickstarter launch, the game had raised over $200,000.
On April 5, 2015, Squad appeared in Steam's Greenlight service and was announced in an update called "Vote For Us". It was officially greenlit eight days later. Squad was released on Steam Early Access on December 15, 2015, and officially released on Steam on September 23, 2020. Squad is currently at version 7.3 as of the 17th of April, 2024. "
