===Overview=== | |||
The Methane Wagon is an unstable, slow, and rickety modified version of the Shadow created by [[Unggoy]]. It has a parking brake made of a chunk of wood. The Methane will detonate violently when its structural integrity is compromised due to the volatile infusion-enriched methane stored on it.<ref name="PL1"/> | |||

Methane Wagons are exclusive to [[Yapyap]] and can be made at [[Banished outpost]]s once the leader power has unlocked them. They perform poorly against infantry, vehicles, aircraft, and structures as they primarily buff allied Grunt units and debuff enemies. They will also explode upon destruction, causing damage to nearby enemy units. In [[Blitz]], Methane Wagons cost 70 energy. Despite being rated poorly against enemy units, Methane Wagons will typically outperform [[Marauder]]s due to their buffs and debuffs. | |||
