APCs are not useful in comparison to a pair of portal wagons and a sentinel sphere, as a sentinel sphere would provide just as if not more protection to soldiers breaching said portal (for a much larger total area and number protected) and with each wagon working in tandem transportation is instantaneous. Since the sphere is sentient it should be "living" and therefore portal-able or at worst carried by the first to breach and activated at the other end.
This removes worries about the time costs associated with mobilizing and using vanilla APCs - though I like the idea of making more useful versions.
I'd like to request 1 more portal wagon and a sentinel sphere, and if possible 7 portal wagons and 4 sentinel spheres such that we could relocate troops from 4 locations instantly, or get 4 times as many troops to any point as fast as possible.
EDIT: to clarify how the portaling becomes instantaneous between any 2 locations rather than just the portal wagon and its location:
Wagon A and Wagon B and sentinel sphere are in the same room, Wagon A and wagon B are situation such that their local portals touch (or nearly touch, or have a protective corridor between them if any distance is required), and then wagon A points his portal to the front line which the sentinel sphere enters and activates projectile slowing (alternately each base needs a sentinel sphere for portaling purpose if they cannot portal without being carried), and wagon B points his portal to our military base.
Now soldiers enter wagon B's portal at the base and instantly are stepping to the front line through wagon A's with the protection of the sentinel sphere.
