SCV (Or T-280 Space Construction Vehicle) is the terran unit responsible for repairing mechanical units and buildings, constructing terran buildings, and harvesting resources.
Description
SCVs appear in several episodes as resource harvesters or builders. However, they are occasionally seen engaging in combat, as evidenced in Trust the Nidas Touch and Alliance. Despite being outfitted with drills, they usually mine with pickaxes. SCVs are common targets for raids in many episodes such as TvT and Roach Approach.
Appearance
SCVs are team-colored with a grey cockpit which also serves as an eye, as it can 'cry'. They are outfitted with drills, but they are usually only used in construction, as they mine with pickaxes. Despite having wheels, they usually use them as legs rather than wheels when moving.
