La troisième déclinaison du Niska Motor Carriage est équipée de deux mitrailleuses au détriment de la protection des passagers et de la puissance de feu globale. Cette modification était à l'origine un ajustement ad hoc effectué par les mécaniciens sur le terrain, mais elle a rapidement été demandée par les régiments de blindés sur la ligne de front Caoiva-Veli.

— Description en jeu
The Niska Mk. III Scar Twin (also known as a Scar Twin) is a WardenSemi-chenillé. It is equipped with two machine guns. It can tow Field Weapons and Trailers.
The Niska Mk. III Scar Twin, like all Half-Tracks, can only handle targets in front of them. As such, it is best to keep them facing towards the enemy at all times, and protect them from flanks. Additionally, the Gunners can be killed if directly hit by weapons, so extra care must be taken to ensure this does not happen. In any case where retreating is necessary, the driver should reverse instead of turning around so the Gunners aren't exposed and can still defend the vehicle.
Despite having tougher armor, it is still a relatively weak vehicle. It is incapable of dealing with Armored Cars and Tankettes, and especially more late-game vehicles like Light Tanks, Medium Tanks, and Battle Tanks that will quickly destroy them. Additionally, heavier anti-armor weapons will be unlocked, which have higher penetration power and will quickly shred light armor.
With its towing capability and its multiple passenger seats, the Scar Twin is ideal for the transport and support of a field weapon and its crew. After driving to the desired location, the passengers can disembark, unhitch the Field Weapon, and operate the Field Weapon while the half-track crew covers them, resupply them, and help them relocate somewhere else quickly if needed.
One of the rear passengers can serve as a spotter/commander for the crew by using binoculars.
Standard Equipment Loadout
Like with every other armored vehicle, the crew should ALWAYS equip themselves with a Gas Mask and multiple Filters to avoid dying to Gas Grenades. Additionally, they should bring a Hammer and Basic Materials to repair the tank. These tactics can be buffed by wearing either a Tank Uniform or an Engineer Uniform.
Trivia
The Niska Mk. III Scar Twin was introduced in Update 1.54 ('Naval Warfare') to give the Warden Faction a heavier towing Half-Track, which could fulfill a similar role to the HH-b “Hoplite”.
