    Singleplayer only. View the screens of the Terran campaign upgrades. You can upgrade to have a turret and/or a +2 capacity increase. Again: singleplayer only.

    I wonder if in the single player there's already a "mobile bunker" unit.

    I doubt it. These APC ideas never work in a non-squad game.

    As for the bunker upgrade, the +2 unit upgrade used to be campaign-only, but is now in the basic game too. The Shrike turret upgrade is still campaign-only though.

    Allegedly gives armor as well.

    And what do you mean "is that it"? That's +50% of the firepower without taking up any extra space on the battlefield.

    That sounds like a fair idea. But i believe that would ruin the game balance. The Terran faction already has access to stationary bunkers. Also, the mobile bunker would be a little too difficult to destroy since adding higher tech units would improve it's durability, not to mention armor upgrades. I can already envison Terran players enmassing these bunkers early game, overwhelming their enemies with superior bunker fire; on wheels. Of course, if you do manage to build a bunker infront of your enemy base, reinforce it, and you'll see that it's almost as effective as a mobile one.

    Yea but agaisnt non Zerg it will be more effective cuz the Zerg just have to keep you back at the edge of the creep where terrans and toss would have a harder problem on there hands where the mobile bunker coils leap frog into the base slowly but still killing everything.
