Assault RifleEdit

The C-20A can be customized quickly into an assault rifle, especially effective in close quarters.^[1] It has a 24 round magazine and is referred to as the C-20A gauss rifle in this mode.^[5]

Grenade LauncherEdit

The C-20A features an in-built grenade launcher attachment, capable of lobbing a variety of grenades.^[1] Known varieties include;

• EMP Grenade
• Flash Grenade
• Hellfire Grenade
• Irradiate Grenade
• Lockdown Grenade
• Sticky Grenade

Sniper RifleEdit

The C-20A can function as a sniper rifle. By attaching a scope, the C-20A effectively becomes a sniper rifle. It gives info on the target such as health, range and whether they can be locked down.^[1]

DevelopmentEdit

The C-20A was a usable weapon in early builds of StarCraft: Ghost, but was removed from the game by BlizzCon 2005.^[6]

The multifunction C-20A was replaced by a few specialized weapons in later builds of StarCraft: Ghost. Its appearance and the assault rifle role went to the AGR-14 rifle, the sniper rifle role went to the BOSUN FN92 rifle, and the lockdown capability went to the E-11 Lockdown Device.^[6] Its structure seems to have formed the basis of current C-10 artwork. Regardless, the C-20A has made distinct appearances in Wings of Liberty^[4] and Spectres.^[2]
