Fun Facts

 * Chew bubble gum is a reference to Duken Nukem who says it in the 1996 hit Duke Nukem 3d in the third episode of the game, Shrapnel city. (?)


 * The real reference is to a line said by Rowdy Roddy Piper in the 1988 movie, "They Live".


 * Although nothing like the hercules exists in real life, hercules are mentioned as future soldiers (AMP units) in the movie "Avatar" in which their guns are no match against soldiers or air units but they are vurnerable in Tank fire. There are expeirmental exoskeletons in the military used to help lift heavy loads, but none of these have miniguns on them.
 * Even though that they are machines they can still kill wing drones and copter drones.
 * At the info it says"has 25mm Grenade Launcher" only uses machine guns.
 * Hercs are effective for base defense when used to defend mortars and key buildings (resource storage and command center) from air attacks.
 * Hercs are the long time infantry production unit.
 * Most effective when teamed up with Flame throwers due to that the Flamethrowers wil absorb the damage
 * in the picture of a Herc seen clearly you can see the Pilot in it
 * When they attack you only see two stream of bullets.
 * They dont usallly fire automatic
 * Most effective counter attack against most aircrafts
