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?
* This unit is unique to the Warriors Of Tratos subfaction
The Whirlwind is a versatile missile artillery in use by the Warriors. It is simply put a modified GDI Hover MLRS which they were able to salvage with it's hover drives intact. This enables it to cross bodies of water and strike from where enemies can't reach. Getting hit by EMP weapons can cause it's hover drives to malfunction, sinking it should it be above deep water. It fires long-ranged cluster missiles that showers the target area with bomblets, bombarding structures and groups of enemies alike. Heavier vehicles can withstand the high explosive bomblets and it has to remain still when firing. As an additional function, it can also paint aircraft with it's targeting laser and coordinate with nearby anti-air systems to eliminate them quicker.

Amazing Work
I'm interested to see how the laser pointer works ;o
It basically reduces the target's armor by 30% while its painted by the laser. The effect does not stack so you just need one Whirlwind.
Are the Forgotten will get any aircraft?
A few. They're rather handicapped in terms of air power...
