Ce canon de campagne est une arme antichar performante, bien qu'un peu fragile, fabriquée à partir de matériaux bon marché, d'un traitement rudimentaire et d'une technologie dépassée. Le canon de 20 mm qui y est fixé peut sembler ancien par rapport aux normes modernes, mais soyez assuré qu'il n'a aucun mal à percer les blindages modernes.

— Description en jeu
The Duncan's Coin 20mm is a Warden Field AT Rifle equipped with a 20mm anti-tank gun.
The Duncan's Coin 20mm houses a crew of two soldiers:
Driver (Left Side)
Controls the movement of the vehicle - requires a soldier in the Gunner seat in order to move
Gunner (Right Side)
Controls the reloading, and firing of the chassis-mounted 20mm Anti-Tank Gun
Required to move the vehicle
NOTE: Despite not having an actual Passenger seat, it is possible for a soldier to stand on the Spade (the long metal piece on the back of the vehicle) and move with the crew.
Unlike enclosed vehicles, Field Weapons cannot switch seats, requiring the crew to exit the vehicle in order to change seats.
Armament
The Duncan's Coin 20mm is equipped with one main armament:
The Duncan's Coin 20mm is an early game Field Weapon whose primary purpose is to engage enemy armor and destroy them. Due to it being the earliest 20mm piece of equipment in the game, it provides a major advantage as it allows the quick destruction of armored vehicles, such as Armored Cars.
Chassis
All push guns, by their nature, are one of the most vulnerable vehicles in the game in terms of crew protection. They are exposed to the enemy, making them susceptible to all enemy fire. Due to push guns requiring both crew members to move them, the death of a single crew member could result in the push gun being lost. Due to this, it is recommended to only lock the gun when it looks like enemy infantry are going to overwhelm you and can steal it. This tactic is vital if a push gun is decrewed, as it allows a friendly soldier to quickly man it and drive it back to safety.
Visibility Mechanics
Push guns have a visibility mechanic, which allows it to operate differently compared to regular vehicles. Similar to infantry, they are affected by vision, meaning their movements cannot be seen unless it is within your line of sight. Due to this, they can hide behind structures, or even bushes (depends on how big the bush is). It's also affected by the time of day, with nighttime making it possible for push guns to become invisible to the enemy if you're far enough from them. Keep in mind that if the enemy decides to illuminate your position, this will expose it until the flare dies out. The push gun's position will be exposed anyway if the crew decides to fire its main armament.
