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?
The Hound is a small quadruple drone used for both security and scouting purposes. It is so-called due to it's animalistic behavior, close to that of a dog. Fast on it's feet and packing powerful sensors, it can be used to scout out the map quickly and can detect disguised and cloaked units, engaging them with a short ranged cutting laser. The laser is only powerful enough to mutilate infantry, making it unsuitable for use against vehicles and structures. It is able to cut out bits of armor off vehicles, exposing their internals and making them more vulnerable to attacks for a short while.
