As soon as Needle Tree colonies were assimilated into Swarm`s genetic pool, Overmind`s cerebrates were seeking the way to fit mobile units with such weapons. Small creatures weren`t able to efficiently shoot masses of spikes and big ones were too slow. Nevertheless, through directed evolutions a compromise between mass, mobility and firing speed was found. Thus, the Pancor appeared. They require a huge amount of metal salts to ensure the strength of the skeleton while growing, but their combat effectiveness justifies these costs.

As a Needle Tree, Pancors are capable of firing needles with such ferocity that they penetrate the shields. They also have a higher accuracy and rate of fire.
Pancor is unable to hold a target, so before each shot it will make a choice of target group and unit-target.

Abilities:
Attack through shield
