  • Taking a look at the various ground vehicles used by the Global Defense Initiative across the three major wars of the Tiberium timeline of C&C. This video excludes the Mechanized Walkers, Mammoth Tanks, and Sonic derived vehicles, as those have already been covered in separate videos. Chapters and/or corrections posted below.

    Corrections and Clarifications:
    1) In Tiberian Dawn, the vehicle production factory is actually called the Weapons Factory. The name changed to War Factory in the later games. This includes Red Alert, even though timeline-wise, that game acts as a prequel to Tiberian Dawn.
    2) The repair drones from the War Factory can all be ordered to repair a single damaged vehicle via their Repair ability.
    3) The original M1 Abrams tank was armed with a 105mm gun, which is mentioned as the Medium Tank's main armament in the C&C manual. However, the later M1A1 model of the Abrams was armed with a 120mm gun.
    4) I forgot to mention that GDI used the M2 Bradley in their arsenal, as the vehicle is seen in a couple of cutscenes in Tiberian Dawn. I'll be sure to mention this in a future video on Nod's Armor since they also used the M2 Bradley.

    Can we just take a moment to recognise the sheer magnitude of GDI military power? They underfund their core military for several years/decades to focus on Tiberium abatement and still win a global war against both nod and the scrin. Without kane the brotherhood would have never had a dream of any success.

    • @yagdtigercommander
      @yagdtigercommander Před 11 měsíci +43

      Agreed However with Brother Marcions more brute force tactics and less focus on stealthy ambush tactics I think at least initially could have caught GDI off guard since GDI wouldn't have expected a sudden mass assault of heavily armoured flamethrower troopers as well as flames tanks and Purifers. However GDI has mastered such tactics so the Black Hand sub faction would lose on its own in the end run because Nod as whole can't compete conventionally with GDI.
      But I do think the black hand were probably the only viable branch with out Kane to at least have some degree of success at least against GDIs forces stationed in yellow zones that have less defended Garrisions. But couldn't effectively take the fights to the Blue zones because they lacked air support due there preferred tactics.
      But GDI as whole always had the advantage simply because much of the world saw them as a unified military force to keep a level order and stability in uncertain times. GDI wasn't perfect as clearly shown with director Boyle. But as a whole Nod was truly seen for what was a terrorist organization with a Leader obessed with Tiberum being the future of humanity the very mineral killing our planet. Plus Nod says it wants peace yet burns down entire towns and villages to intimated civilians into joining their cause. Though some felt abandoned by GDI and went willingly. Its hard to paint GDI as Tyrannical Regime if your burning villages and threatening to use tiberium based weapons on the entire planet. So even with Budget Cuts GDI I still believe had enough support from much surviving populace to restore our planets environment and end Nods rain of terror once and for all. So even if the budget was cutt in significantly It still had to be very huge to be able to mass produce Juggernauts and Mammoth Tanks.

    "Armor Superiority" a.k.a. GDI in nutshell.
    But after the Scrin Invasion, I hope GDI council learned it's lesson (but who am I kidding) with all that alien threat and their tech laying around. It'd be cool to see mix of Battle Walkers (and Mammoth Tanks/Walkers) supported by high-end armor divisions with tanks and vehicles equipped with many defense and weapon systems. Mechanized infantry units would also fit quite nicely with Zone Trooper/Raider-type power armors or advanced combat armors, lifted by all-terrain transports, dropships etc..

      honestly as mediocore as Tiberium Twight was I really enjoyed the mix of traditional tanks and mechs GDI had as well as nod to a lesser extent. Because Both have pros and cons. But in a tandem supporting roles it really negates alot of those issues. like Mammoth can focus slugging it out with enemy tanks and the Mastadon with its sonic cannons could utterly slaughter enemy infantry while at the same time increasing the amount of aa support for other units with their missiles

      One of the main reasons why walkers were retired by GDI was that Nod Commandos were starting to be trained on "kneecapping" tactics that could outright destroy walkers in a single attack. That same explosives used by the Commando was also used by the Shadow Teams which potentially could have caused the utter ruin of GDI's armor strategy. The change back to tracks and wheels was probably fast enough that Nod ended up not seeing the point in training Shadow Teams to kneecap but if walkers came back en mass, that could easily change.

    Yoo, this is a great video! Also, I think the Brotherhood of Nod had a Bradley IFV as one of their main vehicles at some point, an in-between of APC and Tank, with a 25mm Autocannon as it's main weapon, and room for TOW missiles and a co-axial machinegun, it was multi-purpose like the Mammoth Tank, but with less mass and armor, it was faster. I think Renegade-X has it as a counter-Mammoth vehicle, not sure. But there's some tidbits for ya!

    Basically the GDI Armour was similar to the Nod counterpart during the 1st Tiberium War, as they were comprised of leftover updated Soviet and Allied equipment from Great World War 2 from the late 1960s. The Humvee were basically fullfill the role of Ranger jeep while light tanks were inherited from the Allies(portrayed ingame as the Type 62 light tank but M2 Bradley in the cutscenes). The Allied Medium tanks(XM1from RA1) then evolved into GDI Medium Tanks in Tiberian Dawn(M1 Abrams) and Mammoth Tanks were the relic from the Soviet Union from RA1. That's means by the time of the 1st Tiberium War, these vehicles stayed in active service for more than 50 years.
    The reason why light tanks are not used by GDI ingame despite it's widespread service in the lore is because Westwood wanted to flesh out the hit and run nature of Brotherhood of Nod, same thing can be used to explain why Brotherhood of Nod doesn't have Grenadiers and Medium Tanks for gameplay reasons.

I feel like, all other things being as they are, and better left to rust where they lie, it might be worth some overviews of the various ground and air vehicles, as well as infantry units, involved in the game. Some of them were pretty nice designs, let down by the game they were tied to.

    While it's likely a bit late to mention this, there's evidence (seen in one the original C&C3 trailers) that the Pitbull was once going to be more like the Humvee, with a gunner located on the back with what seems to be some form of machine gun.
    This is also likely related to why the older look of the Predator seems to had once been planned to have rockets, but then lost them.
