Syndicate Wars Hints
Fighting enemy vehicles
1 of 6: These cars can sometimes be annoying, especially early on. Here's a tip for early missions: if you see a flying APC and it isn't coming towards you, but looks like it is patrolling, then you are in luck. Usually, these guys will patrol around a set area and you can fire long range rifles at them a few times before they wake up. I have sometimes killed APC's before they ever strayed from their patrol route to fire at me.
2 of 6: As soon as you see a flying APC, yank out the LR-Rifles and pump up the drugs to the red. Fire the first volley of shots at it. If the APC doesn't charge at you, wait for it to come around again, and fire another volley of LR's. When the vehicle wakes up and does charge toward you, whip out the miniguns and continuously fire at it unil the LR's are reloaded. Fire another volley of LR's. Then switch back to miniguns.
3 of 6: As soon as the APC starts falling out of the sky, run away from it. The last thing you want is flying debris, or even worse, the vehicle itself, to hit you.
4 of 6: As soon as you see a car flying towards you, head for shelter by going into a building . They can't attack you there. Get back out when you're at full health.
5 of 6: Cars always focus on one agent. Try to find the guy that the APC is going for, and leave him under cover. Next, group the other 3 guys around behind the APC and start blasting him out of the sky.
6 of 6: Later on: use plasma lances to blow up the cars.
