The year is 2055, more than thirty years after the events of Zero Hour, Earth suffers a catastrophic collision with meteorites. The world is thrown into turmoil as large swathes of land are annihilated. Four factions, the ADF (Asian Democratic Federation), WEA (West European Alliance), WLF (World Liberation Front), and AC (American Confederacy) are at war for control of the remaining already harder to find resources as well as the preservation of their nations and geopolitical interests. Welcome to Deep Impact.
Banshee - once war moved from the north pole to urban environments, a new problem was discovered - the lack of anti-garrison combat support. Although powerful in nature, even the strongest WEA armor couldn't stand against a well placed garrison ambush. After a few deadly encounters which ended with heavy looses for WEA forces, the Banshee program started. The main goal was to create a light vehicle that can clear out garrisoned structures. The final product was a fast all-terrain armored vehicle, highly resistant to any weapon infantry has, which can fire a special type of grenades that take out garrisoned infantry and can also be used as a strong anti-infantry weapon in the opened field. The Banshee is the perfect example that the initial idea can become the perfect result.

This thing is no apc , right ?
thats right
i realy think iots a waste that these (banshee and remaked sentinel) vehicles arent apc's there jsut so big and...chunky.. and they havre such a small weapon. like they dont have a primary weapon at all just a secondary one. i think its just a big waste...
WEA still get an APC like unit, don't worry, we just haven't shown it yet. :P
It would make the WEA's APC-like unit less useful if both the Banshee and Sentinel had transport slots.
The Sentinel AA missiles, and Banshee grenades are definitely primary weapons. Remember all unit upgrades are classified for now, so units may get extra weapons or abilities.
