Nod Infantry - Command and Conquer - Tiberium Lore

I love how NOD went from looking like a regular military to full on cult

[@salt_97]

It was always a cult

[@fietehermans9903]

Honestly? That’s kinda why I don’t like the first game. I grew up playing the other two (well, three, but we don’t talk about that one), and when the remaster was released, I thought it was all so boring, because neither of the factions have that much flavour

[@everythingsgonnabealright8888]

@@fietehermans9903 really like it as a stepping stone, how it all began. When Nod still tried to look legitimate in the modern world, Tiberium just arrived after all. They couldn’t just drop the whole act and just be an insane cult out of nowhere (to the onlookers). They had to build and prepare their stance and reputation.

It was always a weird moment for me. If you kill him your commander will go “WTF that was a civilian you killed!” While EVA also mentioned “civilian killed”.

Something I want to touch on in my C&C 3 is how the nod infantry in that game were a good reflection of the brotherhoods scale at that point - its more efficient for them to produce massed numbers of poorly equipped/trained hordes of yellowzoners over the well trained soldiers they fielded in tibsun.

[@Jethild]

Something I didn't mention in this video that you could mention in yours is the animations for the militants. Some of them will do things like looking down the barrel of there gun, randomly dropping it on the ground, and the fact that they fire it one handed, whereas GDI's Rifleman always hold there rifles with both hands. It just goes to further show the lack of training the militants have.

[@Remitonov]

It's wickedly ingenious, really. Focus your resources to training a small elite core of soldiers, and back them up by hordes of bullet-soakers to distract GDI forces.

[@TunaHematoma]

I kinda hated that, haha. Wasting lives and equipment when you've got the resources to train professional soldiers is not efficient. Usually when something like that is happening, it's because all you good soldiers are dead and you're desperately throwing bodies at the enemy. I think what actually happened was EA didn't understand how Nod worked in previous games and made them archetypical "militant religious fanatics", which in the modern context basically meant middle eastern rebels with poor training.

[@fenrirsrage4609]

@@Jethild Don't forget the fact that some of them will outright try to play baseball with their gun and a rock.

[@TheNapster153]

I don't mind the transition from trained to militants because even without the 'Blame EA' mentality. Timeline wise, Kane is in fact running out of time. People forget the planet is dying right before humanity's eyes. Even if ZOCOM succeeds somewhat in containing the infection, the fact is Tiberium has spread beneath the crust and is leaching from the mantle. People are getting more desparate and there's no way in hell he can go to the Forgotten. Besides, his plan is not to win the war to begin with. He just wants GDI to win and use the chaos of an alien invasion and Liquid T detonation to get his hands on one of the Towers.

[@elderliddle2733]

So here’s a thing you may not know: In the Italy mission where the commando shoots the sabatour for questioning Kane, it is possible to stop her and secure that much needed Tiberium spike. When the mission starts move her away from the guy and spam S on your keyboard. When she’s far enough away command the sabatour to capture the spike. Mission is now 50% easier.

I love the attention to detail on the interior of the Hand of Nod in Renegade. It's not something you get a lot of in modern FPS games, but in the Golden Age of 3D FPS the worlds were full of details like that, from Half-Life to Deus Ex to GoldenEye, the devs really made sure that the environments had their own stories, and felt like real places we were exploring rather than just the shallow wallpaper around our linear experience.

[@silkenemperor]

[@TheNapster153]

If you read Peptuck's Tiberium Wars novelisation, it does shed light on why the Brotherhood, as a populist force, is so successful. To rephrase, the Brotherhood is less a religion but more a spiritual call for harmony, but more importantly optimism in trying times. It's messages that may seem filled with hate and bitterness at first, in reality, are more in line with spite and perseverance in the face of oppression both man-caused and natural. In a world of social injustice or apocalyptic circumstances, it allows the Brotherhood to thrive and even reach out to other faiths. One of the more potent moments in Peptuck's works is when we see the Nod commander's perspective of visiting a Nod medical center during the Nod Blue Zone offensive. The commander noted not just Nod formal priests, but also monks, Christian Priests and even Imams amongst the throng of people, and each were doing their best to soothe the injured and the dying. So, in an abstract sense, Nod does have merit, especially for the downtrodden and the ill-fated by giving them a sense of purpose. Only when you start going up the ranks do you begin to see the apparent manipulations at play. Even then, 'faith' plays a huge role in why people continue to follow Kane.

[@TheNapster153]

​@@LINJ638Having read it myself to finish and looking for answers, I think someone mentioned he kinda lost steam at some point. Also, there was this serious imbalance between the GDI and Nod perspective. Yes, GDI suffered by the millions in the march to Sarajevo, but at the same time this isn't reflected in the narrative. There was an instance a Nod commando toyed with her prey and got capped by a sniper. Her prey was just a bunch of grunts. I also agree that while Nick Havoc is a great addition to the story, one of his later appearances sort of got hamfisted in. Also, Black Hand was starting to look like target practice and less like the wh40k Space Marines they were originally potrayed as. Early chapters had characters bricking themselves whenever they saw one. Later chapters have them getting oneshotted in almost bizarre ways.

[@connorniece5323]

Man.. this just really makes me want to track down a copy of Renegade so I can play it again. I remember my cousin showing me C&C 3 and getting me hooked, then he told me there was an FPS set in the same universe and I was in love. This universe is such an interesting setting

[@XYZ-eo8um]

While C&C3:TW was a meager game, I really liked that they shifted from this jolly, GI Joe-like portrayal of GDI and Nod (always righteous knights in shining armors vs. evil for sake of being evil screwballs) into something more believable. GDI focused more on protecting the rich to keep their funding, and Nod taking an advantage of the dissent of all that masses living in Yellow Zones, largely ignored by those lucky to live in Blue ones, to fuel their war effort.

[@40kwarlord79]

My favorite iteration of Nod military is C&C 3. The contrast between the masses of militia soldiers and the few but professional elites and the even rarer cyborgs is super well done. GDI always felt boring as a faction compared to Nod, they look and feel too much like a generic sci fi military we've seen a thousand times.

[@Lazarultos]

I think that was intentional in designing the GDI. They were supposed to be grounded in reality and using well-known generic sci-fi designs (which are also based on realistic ideas) in order to highlight the contrast between them and the far more unique visuals of the Brotherhood of Nod, which choose form over function. The same way that wacky characters work best in stories when there's a straight man to contrast them against. When there's a generic-looking faction (which is on-brand for being the no-nonsense government-funded military institution) the esoteric style and design choices of the Cult faction they regularly fight against is noticed far more easily.

[@ShawndaPrawn]

@@LazarultosI think the Scrin expanded on this contrast as well, with their units and structures all being biomechanical machines that literally bleed when damaged. Makes everything they build and deploy seem…alive.

[@AgentofLADON]

Kinda makes me think Nod propoganda was too effective. They were getting more Red and Yellow zone residents on their side than they could equip to Tiberian Sun levels and had to split the difference between the Black Hand types and more scrappy lower tier troops. Also good motivation to do well and earn your black armour.

[@TheNapster153]

​@@AgentofLADONThere was also the fact that people were just plain desparate. GDI had walled off the habitable zones and ZOCOM was off doing things in places that were most likely far from civilization. The average yellow zone human can only withstand so much suffering, and Nod took full advantage by offering some form of protection and society, many would join for a chance like that.

[@themaniomarian]

Well, it is only a reskin in KW.

[@everythingsgonnabealright8888]

Lore wise, this is explained that these suits are dilapidated from Second Tiberium War and lacked any adequate maintenance. They are functionally just pale versions of themselves, more form then function. Which is kinda brilliant, fluff wise, if you ask me. Nod being a shadow of it’s former self, just trying to at least look the part it was in yesteryear. These new, fresh militants lacking any training essentially LARPing as formidable Nod warriors they adore.

[@dislikebutton5149]

​​​@@everythingsgonnabealright8888 Yeah, it's interesting to note that NOD had only made advances in their more estoric tech like stealth and energy weapons. On top of revolutionizing walker development. This fits in line with the lore, because it proves that Kane had only focused on using NOD as a way to weaken GDI enough so that the Scrin could effectively win. And that Kane never actually aimed for NOD to win the war at the end of the day.

[@kennycai8695]

That, and you also have to remember that since Nod recruits troopers in the thousands from Yellow Zones, Nod quartermasters probably have to cut costs here and there to ensure EVERYONE gets adequate gear to be sent into combat (and probably never return).

"Good thing Renegade set that issue straight" My brother in Kane, Renegade made the whole thing worse with Nod's using TibSun's bright red+black colors :P On a serious note, I have my own headcanon with that: the Brotherhood is supposed to be a terr0rist group who fights a lot inside of cities (as seen in the cinematics) so it makes sense they use urban camo. Or it could be related to the Brotherhood's disorganization, cuz' despite all their tech and influence, Nod is still a mix of Third world countries' armies, ragtag fanatics and paramilitary/mercenaries (like Carlos Mendoza) so I doubt they even think about changing uniforms based on the setting, they probably throw their armies as cannon fodder while most specialized groups (chemwarriors, flame & stealth tanks) took care of things, just like in TibWars with the militants & black hand/etc. In the case of GDI, I guess it's just a matter of style, real UN has its peacekeepers wearing blue helmets and berets that don't really fit in any setting, so

Whenever you post a video it is a great day ^^. I love how in depth your videos are, I reallty like the TBW lore it has so much stuff to be explored!

[@jasonscarborough94]

Kane: Man I love your aesthetic, mind if I borrow it? Cobra Commander: What? Sure... what ever, just change some things so it isn't Obvious. Precentor Aziz (Word of Blake): Hey Kane, don't go to far with those notes

[@dankujcreations]

Awesome video, basically a lore wiki deep dive but in audio format lol. All the footage is very much appreciated as well! I used to play C&C but forgot how cool that world was.

You’ve gotta to a Video on legion next, just so I can say “KANE BUILT THIS IN A CAVE…WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS”

[@ROTTERDXM]

Fantastic vid! What a treat. Loved the ending bit with Kane's voice.

[@patrik9328]

Now Waiting for a GDI Infantry Lore, Video. "Let's get this party started"

[@LINJ638]

Just relax, it takes time, he will upload them eventually.

[@louievelayo4100]

Yeah... I mean the next one is GDI related, but more on their non-walker armored cavalry(except the Mammoth Tank of course, there's already a video on it)...

THE HEROES OF THE TIBERIUM UNIVERSE!

[@9mmking601]

Awesome finally found lore for my favorite childhood game ❤❤❤

[@brothers_of_nod]

Wowza, 51 minutes of C&C, that is a thing of beauty.

Before full NOD standardization in the ladder half of the 1st Tiberium War, id like to think NOD forces differed in competence,organization & weaponry. From NOD backed Local Warlord Militias, Dictatorial Government Conscript Armies outfitted with aging soviet export weapons/vehicles to Private PMCs & Special Forces Groups equipped with the latest in military hardware/possibly experimental vehicles. It would definitely be an army that varied vastly in appearance.

More than 50 min of lore on the infantry of Nod, nice ! A great and informative video. I have always loved learning about the command and conquer univers and its hidden secrets. I hope one day to see a video on the construction yard because still today for me it remains the greatest enigma from a logiciel and realistic point of view. Just like a power plant that can give energy to a building or defense structure at the other end of a map without problem... 😅 In any case, your videos are well worked ! We feel the passion all along. Keep it up. Waiting for the future video on the infantry of the GDI et Forgotten. Ps : The second Nod uniform soldier is clearly the best.

[@gdicommando4456]

This has to be your best video yet. Thank you for all your hard work into making these!

[@combinecommando001]

I always loved how the Black Hand were always seen as a major presence while on the field. The organisation itself may have started as covert operations, its own brand of special forces but they also knew that they would need to be seen occasionally, be feared and looked upon with awe from the Brotherhood itself, to be what the newer or regular members should aspire to be, so their outfits were never too out there but still recognisable so that the regular troops of both factions would know of them if they ever laid their eyes on those armours to bring about justified fear in the hearts of GDI and inspiration to the NOD troopers. And in C&C3, they became even more of a presence thanks to Marcion's own battlefield experience, to hell with covert operations, let the world see what is left in our wake, what happens to those who suffer Kane's wrath.

Welcome back Commander.

[@svagglaorde4387]

The Tiberium Wars is just G.D.I. Joe vs The Brotherhood of Cobra in the Command & Conquer universe and I'm all in on it.
