You are just one of the few people who like the concept of practicality next to how something work, for us we been playing RTSes for so long, we question how some things function, we are not to think to much, but sometimes, we still question, sure we can fathom a few guesses but sometimes its not enough, sometimes a name alone makes us "WHAT IS GOING ON INSIDE", A reason why I like command and conquer renegade and world of warcraft for showing how some of the structures in Warcraft 3 looked and function. Though my first time in a long time going "WHAT IS GOING ON INSIDE?" is Jurassic world evolution 2 (Yea I know, very different genre but still, I like to explore the oddities) is a gift shop that can be set to sell varying things, one of the things is dino adoption, I mean, what is this? I can fathom its like a weird form of sponsoring but there is also a park sponsorship so I do not know what the heck is going on and I want to know.

I imagine some of it was used for the Purifier first, just a massively scaled down production model with Marcion's personal touches (perhaps Slavik was in the middle of reverse engineering it when he was killed and Marcion made off with the plans) then when the Black Hand was reintegrated Kane restored some features and tried to make it more versatile. I imagine they weren't able to produce it until they stole some of the information from GDI's MARV due to the loss of some necessary information on how to construct such massive vehicles when CABAL was initially defeated and Kane and Legion simply didn't have the time or resources to recover the data.

I don't blame you, it isn't very intuitive; even Jethild failed to use it right in this vid. The thing many new or casual players don't realize is that the rage generator doesn't force units that are already shooting at something to forget their current target. It only prevents the units from receiving any further orders and causes them to see friendly units as enemies, but units only auto-acquire new targets once their current target is dead. It works best on units that are either idle or moving around but not yet in range to attack one of your units. Thus it's not a 'get off me' tool to be used when a fight is going poorly as unfamiliar players assume it is, but to be used just before a fight to get a good engage on the enemy army. In fact, highly experienced players will exploit how the rage generator works by closely watching the enemy Redeemer for the start of its rage generator animation, once they see it they force attack the ground near their units so they spend the full duration attacking the ground instead of their own units. If you're Nod or MOK it can be a very good idea to use the stealth support power on your redeemer.

I can’t remember if subterranean vehicles could surface in Tiberium fields in the 2nd war. Maybe a theory for nod abandoning them could be that they couldn’t work in environments where Tiberium has thoughtfully infested for structural integrity or biological survivability reasons. So by the time of the 3rd wars they would only be of use in a small part of the blue zones and not worth the upkeep efforts.

Scorpion tank of Third Tiberium War fame looks like someone put Strv103 inspired "hull"/turret upon Komatsu excavator and gave it a "trench tail" with separate track. Given how Kane started off formation of Brotherhood by siphoning off soviet funds and equipment, before proceeding to do the same to Yugoslavia and PRC, I have a feeling that light tank 76mm cannon may be implying PT-76 tanks or at least their armaments usage. After all, Nod might have been forced to construct their own vehicles from components "misplaced" by their "donors" thus ending with a Type 62 equipped with D-56T gun. Or maybe the Type 62 was simply not ready for their reality version of WWII and instead a prototype of Type 62 aka Type 59-16 was instead finished and pressed into service.

Ever since I was in high school, I had this whole headcanon for the Red Alert era light and medium tank depictions simply being a lack of WW2 era assets for FMVs. I always imagined the light tanks as being Chafees and Shermans while the Soviet tanks got their iconic aesthetic from snatching up whatever German engineers that were left without jobs when the timeline was rewritten; giving the Soviet tanks their blocky almost German-like designs and the Mammoth being like parallel to the Ratte concept designs.

Stealth, subterfuge and mobility are core principles of Nod´s doctrine since the beginning.

I think the CnC1/ RA1 Light Tank was meant to be M41 Walker Bulldog. It is a Vietnam-era tank carrying a 76mm gun, which is close enough to the 75mm described in game. It fits the overall Cold War aesthetic of RA1, and it’s more reasonable to have leftover Cold War tanks in service in the 90s (CnC1) than antique WW2 tanks. Another reason I think it’s M41 is because it was really meant to be US Army’s primary light tank - complementing the M48 and M60 medium tanks - before it switched to the MBT concept. It was used so extensively that it became South Vietnam’s primary tank. But I like your guess. M24 Chaffee was indeed the immediate precursor to M41.

The avatar warmecs and their weapon system taking make me wonder why they don't just tell the crew of a vehicle they want the weapon of to get out (provided time for such exists). Training such crews (except for the attack bike) probably takes a while/costs resources, and while Nod is callous to a fault, it's curious how their odd habit of penny-pinching (for a ridiculously wealthy organization Nod does like to save resources anytime the option presents itself) doesn't compel them to try and not kill their own vehicle crews needlessly. Then again, Kane was perfectly ok with Nod being reduced to but a shadow of its former self ("as it should be") as long as they got the Threshold tower and codes, so maybe it was done on purpose to wipe out as many less wanted brothers as possible?

In the context of the third war and how pervasive tiberium has invaded the landscape, especially in red and yellow zones where Nod mostly operated, perhaps subterranean units simply couldn't navigate anymore, blocked by bulk crystals and networks of tiberium veins.

Apart from the threat of GDI's air force. A major reason Nod couldn't rely on Airstrips anymore by the time of Tiberian Sun was because of Ion Storms. Aircraft on all sides will crash and burn during them if in flight; realistically Nod reinforcements to an airstrip would just be cut off. This would severely impede them if GDI was churning out vehicles during a storm and they couldn't get their own to counter.

I was found it amusing how the Black Hands must bless their walkers before battle, it reminds me of Warhammer 40, blessing your weapons and vehicles.

Bit of an add on regarding Nod mechanized walkers, I have to imagine Kane took some inspiration from the Gundam franchise. Hear me out on this one. In-lore, the Avatars (and probably the Purifiers) have their pilots encased in what is called a "virtual sensory pod", which ties the pilot to the machine closely. The Gundams from Mobile Fighter G Gundam use this exact technology to pilot the Gundams, the iconic mobile suits of the shows. However, only G Gundam actually uses this technology, as other continuities have traditional single-seater pilot style cockpits for the most part. Plus, although neither the Avatars or Purifiers were equipped with flight capabilities, a bipedal mechanized walker with arms and legs is pretty much the standard design of your typical mobile suit, the mechs of the Gundam franchise. Although in terms of height, the Avatars and Purifiers are still dwarves in comparison to your average Zaku-II grunt suit, a measly 10m for the Avatar as opposed to 17.5m for a Zaku-II.

It always bugged me that the scorpion tank's 105mm gun was outright replaced by the laser, especially when the mission that introduced the GDI rig had scorpion models with both weapons.

Those mech walkers.......I suppose some survivors of the Empire of the Rising Sun found their way to Nod and gave Kane some plans. Given that walkers wound up on both sides, perhaps remnants of the Empire wound up working for both sides as the war went on.

3:45 That is strange cause the M1 Abram is a very heavy tank at almost 70 tons which is more than WW2 heavy tanks. The Soviet T-90 of the same era weighed only 52 tons. For comparison the famous German Tiger tank weighed 56 tons.

I'm thinking the redesigned Tib Dawn light tank looks more like a T-55, albeit with a shorter barrel.

I thought in the first tiberium war Nod purchased their vehicles on the private market, hence why they had to fly them in.
