Brother joined
Me? Well I'm ErastusMercy, the lead voxel artist on the popular Tiberian Sun mod, Twisted Insurrection. If you don't know what a voxel is then I'll put it this way, I make the vehicles. :P In addition to my roles on TI, I've also done Infantry cameo's (The unit portrait you see when purchasing/selecting a particular unit.) for the C&C3 mods Tiberium Wars Advanced and The Forgotten Mod.
Developed in an attempt to combat the Brotherhood’s increasing use of Stealth technology, the Mobile Sensor Vehicle (M.S.V.) has become a common sight within GDI controlled zones. The first prototypes were ordinary surveillance vehicles, upgraded with the best sensory equipment of the time. However, as Nod's stealth technology became ever more sophisticated, these M.S.V. models could not meet expectations and were soon rendered obsolete.
After forming an alliance with GDI, the mega corporation GloboTech expressed mutual interest in depriving Nod of its advanced optical camouflage. With GDI experience in combating previous Lazarus fields and GloboTech’s resources it was only natural that they would pool together to develop the next generation mobile sensor platform. Propelled by GloboTech’s patient hover technology, the M.S. V. can be deployed virtually anywhere. This design proved to be an instant success.
Due to the sensitive nature of the vehicles sensory equipment the M.S.V. must land in order to operate properly. Only then can the vehicle accuratelly detect and track enemy movement. The Sensor Outpost reveals any units, whether they were shrouded, cloaked or subterranean, within its sensor radius. If the Outpost operators detect any enemy units within range, the crew will sound an alarm alerting any nearby troops of the danger.
The M.S.V. is not entirely helpless whilst mobile, as it’s armed with a fixed 50.cal machine gun to defend itself.
