AT Crew (Civ6)

The AT Crew (short for "Anti-Tank Crew") is a Modern Era anti-cavalry unit in Civilization VI. It upgrades from the Pikeman (or its replacements).
In the Rise and Fall expansion, the AT Crew primarily upgrades from the Pike and Shot.
* Attributes:
** +10 Combat Strength vs. light, heavy, and ranged cavalry units.
== Strategy ==
The AT Crew has a revolutionary weapon which finally replaces pikes and gives soldiers a chance against the terrifying Tank that enters the battlefield in the Modern Era. Its rocket launcher can pierce the vehicles' heavy armor (and is simply devastating against more primitive cavalry units), so send your AT Crews to the front lines if an enemy is trying to use Tanks to break through. Just remember that, as anti-cavalry units, they are vulnerable to the attacks of Infantry and other melee units.

== Trivia ==
* The AT Crew is armed with a Panzerschreck, a German-made anti-tank weapon used during World War II that was noted for its iconic blast shield.
** Despite the Civilopedia entry discussing anti-tank guns, the Panzerschreck is a rocket launcher. It's possible that the AT Crew was originally supposed to look more like the Anti-Tank Gun from previous games, but was changed to use a rocket launcher later in development.
* After firing, the loader can be seen patting the launcher's operator on the head after loading a rocket. This is common procedure for reusable rocket launchers that are loaded from behind, in order to signal to the operator that the weapon has been loaded and the loader is clear.
** When attacked, the loader pushes the launcher aside and shoots back with a pistol.
** Both animations are shared with the Modern AT.
