Attempting to Fulfill the Plan: GDI Edition

Nope, the "Adversary's Haunt" is the Scrin tower, "He" is Kane.
Or that's my reading, at least.

Edit: because while Kane may have a (small) force that could reach Philadelphia station, they'd have a tough time actually doing damage, or taking it.
And, Kane seems to be sitting this one out.

Very possible that Adversary"s Haunt is the Scrin tower as it is gigantic with the height being in the double digit kilometers which does make him reign over the Earth in a sense.

Unlikely, very unlikely, if Kane had a small infantry force that could reach Philadelphia station successfully, they would not have tough time doing severe damage as we have seen Commandoes on both sides destroy Structures which they can carry by themselves or the Walkers like the Avatar or the Scrin Walker during the Campaign. As for taking damage it depends on whether they are using cybernetics or not heavily as if they do they could easily send the cyborgs which are as durable as the enlightened which can withstand a mammoth tank round to the face without breaking stride, making them effectively immune to most weapons on the Station.

Well said, Al-Rashia. I kind of like that he's asserting himself and his people over just folding under the GDI. Should make future interactions interesting.

As if on cue, the skies in front of the three split. Nay, it has always been split– by an obelisk soaring heavensward. All around, the world shimmered, illusions peeling apart within the blink of his eye. Walls and fortification stand tall in front of him, unnoticed, before rippling back towards obscurity. The air above then pressed him, as an almost ovoid craft uncloaked itself, hovering just a scant bit above the ground as a ramp extended outwards towards him.

I'll give this to Kane, that son of a bitch rides around in style.

Lol, I never would have thought that the first knocked out warlord would be Reynaldo, and not Gideon / Atomic Shah

I mean, considering Gideon's territory is "theoretically anywhere in NA" I'd be surprised if he went under first. His centre of operations may generally be the American South, but there aren't any other major warlords that could rival him on the continent so he's got a lot of Yellow to work with.

I expected the Caravanserai to defect to our side, seems they're not.

Honestly, given that they just want to be able to practice their religion in peace and maintain the holy sites? I think that GDI would be more than willing to cede the area to them while continuing to offer support as an ally rather than an overseer.
 
Having a nominally neutral power in control of the Arabian Peninsula may set a interesting precedent. For the last few decades, you were either NOD, GDI, or insignificant to both. Now, with the chaos and devastation of the Regency War, some fractions or minor warlords might consider the possibility of seeking a separate peace instead of dying while serving the scorpion's tail.

Probably not and if he did, what would he need us for, pls chill.

Yes. That is the question, isn't it? What if Kane just fucks off and doesn't give us the TCN... /doomer

But my theory is that he requires the TCN, and the power and computing strength it provides through the Tibeirum femtotech matrix, to fully access the Wormhole functions and wrest them from the Visitors/Adversary to leave to wherever he wants.
 
Oh wow, the Caravanesi are a thing now… d-does this mean we might finally have another government around interested in Diplomacy? How long has it been since there was only war?

*dramatic sobbing*
 
GDI's side of the peninsula now has a friendly state on its land border, and I think any warlord who wants to poke at it will have to make a trip through that huge deadzone. This is probably a great time to build new ships to lock down the sea route.

The more I hear about this Kane guy the more I don't care for him.

Kane successfully activated the Wormhole. Fuck. He is interstellar! He can enter Fake!Scrin/Visitor space.

Uhhh, even if he activated the Wormhole and can enter Visitor Space, I am not sure how that is conductive for the survival of himself and his followers considering the fact there is likely a Sign of him hanging on everyone corner of Scrin Space in which every cowboy, every Foreman or subordinate of the Overlord in Visitor Space would come after him, like tiberium hounds chasing after a juicy tiberium steak.

Well, with Reynaldo out, and Western Europe presumably secured, this is a big win for GDI. While it won't help in the short run as GDI now needs to garrison and integrate the territory, in the longer term, it will allow for more forces to be stationed elsewhere as insurgency is stamped out and more and more industry is set up, cranking up more and more pressure on the other Warlords. Additionally, it will grant far more accessibility and options for Red Zone abatement and resourcing in Europe. All the better to feed said industry with.
 
Just because Reynaldo is gone doesn't mean NOD is gone. It just means we'll have a slightly easier time rolling up the territory Reynaldo claimed. It's not an instant win button.
 
If we're lucky and smart, we can consolidate the fallout from Reynaldo pulling up stakes and quash the NOD presence in Western Europe. Which will help us relive pressure on neighboring lines by reallocating troops to help put out other fires. So, that's two Masterstrokes down, we've still got two more don't we? Or is it three?
 
The idea of indepndent Caravansarai state makes me so mad. We are the rightful masters of the Earth, we are the government of humanity. You join us or hide behing the scorpion. Surrendering the monopoly on legitimacy...
 
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees, Nod ""absolutely"" has ways to bypass GDIs space defenses. You should definitely invest more in Space Force, the most important and strongest branch of the GDI armed forces.

jk, I know of nothing

Dude, what are you talking about? This is a great result, there is now an option between "GDI" "NOD" and "Insignificant," and they're popping up as an aggressively neutral state that's fucking up NOD but not bothering us. This is awesome and we should encourage it.
