Fun tidbits! The RPG Trooper is internally known as 'GLAInfantryTunnelDefender' Which is why they talk about Tunnels a lot! Converting a Combat Cycle into a Terror Bike makes the the Combat Cycle slower! Fun bonus bit: If you're Demolition General and get the Demolitions research, the Explosive power of the Terror Bike is larger than its supposed stats, this is because it's also applying the Demolitions effect, making a second explosion on the same frame. An Upgraded Demolition General SCUD Storm is the only superweapon in the game that destroy other superweapons and command centers if all of the missiles connect properly. What Jarmen does isn't actually unique when he's Garrisoning structures, the USA Pathfinder does the same thing. This is because both units are tagged as 'STEALTH_GARRISON' units. The Cash Bounty power applies to any kill from any source. Base Structures can also gain the cash bounty and even the SCUD Storm can gain money. But not the Command Center's Special Powers because the Special Powers aren't actual weapons on the Command Center object while the SCUD Storm has 'ScudStorm' directly on its weapon slot. This segways into the SCUD Bug, and it's that reason why the SCUD bug happens, it's because the game thinks it can fire the SCUD Storm missiles as a normal weapon because it's weapon is directly referenced in its object entry. The other two superweapons don't have this as their weapons work the same way a command center does.

[@MrJJandJim]

Scud bug is cool, even though I only just learned of it! Group Scud with a unit, tell unit to move, and while unit is moving use the force-fire to rain down endless poison missiles! If I made a mistake, let me know!

[@SioxGreyWolf]

I think Jarmen Kell is just a title, like black rose, but to give it the impression of an impossible to kill mercanary, any time he dies, they just pass the persona to a new person. So there is no singular Jarmen Kell, giving him the IMAGE of an immortal fighter who can never be pinned down nor killed.

[@Croftice1]

I would think, that's how all the various factions HERO units work. Since you can have multiple of them, if you manage to capture an enemy faction's Barracks and Palace, even if you already have your own Jarmen, you can still acquire the one from the other enemy's faction, using both (or more) of them at the same time. Yea, that's game mechanics and not a lore thing, but it can be explained in the lore as the HERO unit not being a singular person, but more of a "rank", or a mantle being given down to some of the most skilled snipers (Jarmen Kell)/agents (Black Lotus)/commandos (Col. Burton). Even the Boss general Leang can train all three of them, even when their actual factions have them already, resulting in a battle of Jarmen against Jarmen, Black Lotus against Black Lotus and so on. Which would be pretty impossible, if it was a single person. At least that's my headcanon, uniting game mechanics with lore.

46:35 They are based on the T-34. which the USSR shipped in massive numbers to Arabian countries during the late 50's and early 60's during the Israeli wars.

I don't think so , the chassis is too different, they however resembled WW2 italian tanks like the P26, which took part a lot in African theater. Even if the Soviets did suppiled Africans with T-34, it will not be the standard T-34/75 but the T-34-85, the ones with the bigger turrets.

The GLA was always my go to for Generals, they were just fun to play and in a big stretch were kind of like playing Cobra in a C&C game, which was my favorite side in GI Joe. The sheer amount of depth and production you put into these videos us just beyond great.

No power plants and cheaper units is what makes the GLA fun to play as. They aren’t bound by to many restrictions and thus can be a thorn in the side if left alone for to long.

[@canon07]

It's good to play GLA is yeah you can to anywhere and best of us you don't need to get power but getting power is btr for glad can faster production and can overwhelmed them by numbers.

[@canon07]

The only disadvantage they have is if they are in the long game.

[@ForTheBrotherhood]

And if you ahve power, you can pump out buildings four times as fast as other factions

[@Tucher97]

Some people who have not played Command and conquer generals (I ask why. If you do not like the modern setting, its game balance and set up is amazing) The shoes are great because they will move much much faster. WAy faster than the other resource gathering vehicles.

Dude this was so good. 50 minutes wasn't enough, I love the attention to details to every action or part of the structure/vehicles function. even though the Devs didn't meant anything by it just to put a game pattern, it's really nice that you added lore to it. I hope we could see more factions!

My favourite CnC faction (followed by the Brotherhood of NOD). - No power required, saves space - Jarmen Kell (snipe a bulldozer; get another faction base) - Scud Storm, best superweapon overall - Base rebuilds itself after being destroyed - Extremely versatile, units upgrade themselves by looting caches - Cheap units, can easily spam technicals and quad cannons - Harass approaching enemies with demo traps - Catchy battle theme - AK-47 and shoes for everyone

[@TheArklyte]

Since P26/40 was an extremely rare tank(sadly for italians), I've always seen Scorpion as combination of WWII era medium tanks and its concept art aka heavily weaponized M113. So to me Scorpion represent all AFVs saved from literal piles of scrap, be they improvized like adding a turret to old APC or something like Sherman or T-34-85. Marauder on the other hand seems like a casemate SPG on chassis of tank that GLA couldn't fully repair. The way stock one looks with its gun, hull and tracks reminded me of Centurion with 20 pounder so that's what I viewed it as - a collection of SPGs based on Centurions, T-55's, T-62's, Type 59's and various M46-48's. And I guess higher levels of upgrades represented strapping MODERN weaponry salvaged from other tanks to those hulls. That's why they don't have rotating turrets - turret rings of old tanks were too narrow thus necessitating the use of casemate to mount modern 120-125mm tank guns. P.S.: I also regarded Crusader as M-60-2000 or some other modification of M-60 while Paladin is basically M1A3. No idea what Overlord can represent:(

[@sinaa8652]

Overlord is a pretty much hypothetical design since her dual cannons are located at the sides of the tank and are significantly distant from eachother; I assume accuracy would be the main issue of such design and others like recoil control (forces being applied to the sides instead of the center of mass) , stabilization, etc.

[@TheArklyte]

@@sinaa8652 the only reason I can envision Overlord's existence as a very, VERY rushed job to get more powerful canon on a tank. Let me explain in too much detail. Battlemasters are basically various Type59/69/80/88 models and variation depending on upgrades. They are armed with either a 1)knock off of soviet 100mm D-10T2S from T-55A with a bit of tech from 115mm U-5TS from T-62 sprinkled on top OR 2)Norinco's clone of british 105mm L7. In the face of new western tanks with 120mm guns and soviet/russian with 125mm ones that's a bit lacking. Remember, the game was designed before ZTZ96/99 entered production, service and even became public. So PLA is in a bit of a pickle. And then suddenly GLA enters the field and starts using stolen soviet equipment en masse. Who's to say that they won't roll out T-72 next? China needs to answer, at least for propaganda purposes! And that's where Overlord comes into play. Remember, it first appears on Beijing parade mission. It was a tank likely made solely to calm the population and be used for propaganda. But then Beijing got nuked. With no way to finish ZTZ96/99 on time, they pushed what they had into service. And that was Overlord. Weird compromise that survived nuclear attack and drove GLA forces back. As to what Overlord is: I believe that it's two Type 88's welded together with twin power pack and with heavy naval turret on top. Remember, they didn't have 125mm gun and autoloaders ready yet. So they took the best from what they had and that was 130mm AK-130 gun. Autoloader for it was too big for a tank so they opted for manual loading and turret that was heavily inspired by british DP 5.25" and 6" QF mountings. Once again it's a rushed propaganda tank that became a surprise powerhouse and wouldn't be in service had Beijing was intact... and majority of PLA high command dead in same attack by GLA. But that's just mine way to invent logical reason for twin barrel quad track superheavy tank to exist.

[@sinaa8652]

@@TheArklyte I'll admit, I had a hard time reading through the names and models you mentioned lol; I'm not a tank/warfare geek but I did understand your main points. Anyways, I still remember how amazed and excited I got the first time that I saw the Overlord in the parade back when I was a kid lol. And I remember I got really sad when it got nuked out of existence and I couldn't build it afterwards; Then I uncovered those 2 surviving overlords somewhere in the south I literally got goosebumps as if I had found the ultimate easteregg/secret.

I've met a good amount of people who say that Generals doesn't feel like a real Command&Conquer's game, and not gonna lie, I have to agree, but I cannot for the life of me pinpoint what separates it from the others, other than the setting. HOWEVER, it is a great game in its own right, and one I still enjoy to this day.
