Just ordered the game. Waiting on delivery. Read through the online rules, but couldn't readily locate what the initials "A.P.E.R". stand for regards the A.P.E.R Tank, included in the game.

Ooh ooh.. my first post.. and I think I can help you out with an answer. I had wondered the same thing and googled it.

APER is probably inspired by or based on the terminology APERS-T which was a type of flechette ammunition developed and used during the Vietnam war... called a beehive or anti-personnel tracer.

They were generally shot near horizontally directly at enemy troops; and were phased out by air burst techniques; which I'm guessing were more efficient.

Just look up 'beehive anti-personnel round' on wikipedia for more information.
