Description

The Truck3 was the original first vehicle spawned from the Military Base, when it was at Level 3. As with other units, it started from the end of the map path and moved towards the entrance of the map. A Truck3 spawned at the start of every wave, one for every Level 3 Military Base, then every 65 seconds after if the wave did not end.

Unlike the Truck1 and Truck2, the Truck3 had a mounted minigun which would attack enemies. While the Truck3 dealt regular collision damage to enemies, upon its destruction, it dealt an additional 50 splash damage to any enemy caught within the explosion radius when it exploded.

The Truck3 was replaced by the Humvee 3 after the MEGA Update.

Appearance

The Truck3 was a green truck with an open bed. It had a diamond-plated dark green spiked bumper and a thick running board. Truck3 had six metallic wheels and six headlamps. A humanoid stands on the open bed controlling a Gatling Gun. The humanoid has yellow skin, its torso was grey and its legs are dark grey.

Strategy

• The Truck3 fares very well against slow enemies, like the Strong and Necromancer, as well as hordes, due to its splash damage upon destruction. However, it does not fare so well against fast enemies such as the Lightning or Speedy Boss.
  • Be aware that you do not get any money from the Truck3 colliding with enemies. However, you get money from any enemy damaged through its mounted gun.
  • While the Truck3 can collide with Hiddens and Hidden Bosses, it cannot detect them.
• On two-pathed maps, only one Truck3 will spawn per Level 3 Military Base. It will go down a specific path on these maps.
• The Brute, Tank 1 and Tank 2 can destroy the Truck3 if a rock lands on it.
  • The Truck3 can also be stunned, so that the mounted gun cannot attack, if it was caught in the Smash shockwave of the Gravekeeper, or if a Boomer 1 or Boomer 2 exploded nearby.
  • The explosion of the Truck3 upon destruction cannot damage enemies that are immune to Splash Damage, such as the Golden.
• The Truck3 can target Shrike Crystals, which makes them useful if other towers were stunned.

Trivia

• The Truck3 was originally known as the Humvee3, even though the appearance of the vehicle looked nothing like a Humvee.
• The Humvee 3 replaced Truck3 in the MEGA Update.
• The Truck3 returned as a skin for the Classic Humvee 3, though it uses a different model.
• The Truck3 was based on the M939 Truck.
