Can a ghost throw an EMP while sitting inside a bunker?
1 Answer
No, you cannot use special abilities of units garrisoned inside a bunker, with the exception of stim packs. It's not even possible to individually- or group- select the units inside, though you can direct their fire by right-clicking.
I've just checked and stim is unique in that it can be activated on all units inside the bunker (as long as there's at least one unit inside capable of stimming).

4You can stim marines, that are in bunker. At least I did that in campaign... Is this campaign-only feature?– BuddaCommented Jan 6, 2011 at 20:26

2Yes, you can stim marines and marauders in a bunker, in both multiplayer and campaign. You can also command the bunkered units to target-fire using right-click or the attack command. Commented Jan 6, 2011 at 20:44

@Budda , Wikwocket - You are right and I am wrong. Answer edited accordingly. To make sure I make no further mistakes I just tested the rest of the abilities in-game... and unfortunately ghosts cannot use EMP (or snipe, or nuke) from inside a bunker.– OakCommented Jan 6, 2011 at 20:52

Do medics (in campaign mode, obviously) also heal the stimm'd marines in the bunkers? I think they might. Commented Jan 6, 2011 at 21:31

I remember SCVs being able to repair a bunker from inside it, but I think that was a bug that has been fixed. Commented Jan 6, 2011 at 21:41
