What if GDI and Nod failed to defeat CABAL during the Firestorm Crisis? With both organizations destroyed by CABAL, nothing was stopping the rogue AI from conquering the world, replacing humanity with cybernetics. The Forgotten, out of the way for much of the Firestorm Crisis, now find themselves being hunted down, conflicted between fortifying their sanctuaries and actively waging a guerrilla war for their own survival. The years of unchecked Tiberium growth would also eventually attract the Scrin, expecting Earth to be devoid of hostile life. Their ignorance would only end up thrusting them into the war between CABAL and the Forgotten mutants, a dangerous situation due to their unpreparedness but their desire for the Tiberium Ichor drives them to destroy anything that stands in their way. A new Tiberium War is about to begin between CABAL, the Forgotten, and the Scrin. Conquest, survival, addiction. For whom will you fight for?

A relatively new cyborg model, the Daedalus was born from reverse-engineering GDI's jump jet flight suit technology. It has been further modified to be more heavily armored and can stay afloat indefinitely thanks to the fusion-powered jump jet engines. The fusion generator also powers it's main armaments: a pair of high-powered plasma blasters. While primarily effective at cutting down scores of infantry, it can still deal considerable damage to vehicles and aircraft, especially when used in numbers. However, numbers don't really come into play against most structures which are too heavily armored for the plasma shots to penetrate, making it extremely vulnerable to anti-air emplacements.
