Tiberian Apocalypse is a Partial Conversion for Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars with the goal to create a true Tiberian Sun sequel. GDI, Nod and the Scrin are getting a complete overhaul.
GDI A/V-35 Scythe

Post a comment
This is a heavier armored V-35, with stub wings, different engines, and a lot of weaponry. Isn't able to carry stuff tho.
nice
reminds me of the avatar helis
and i hope those guns on the top and back work
it would make a great escort
Yay! Nice nice...
When is the v 1.0 release? Or you wanna make it all in 1 version?
can i have one!! and it really really good!!
Awsome!!! it looks like a firehawk but with the orca fans great idea :)
it really reminds me of the UNSC air unit the HAWK in halo wars. that unit was good there and this one here is good too
actually, the initial idea came from the Cicada from UT3.
Oh sweet holy Mandalore the first! Helge you truly are a master of CNC3 modding.
who the hell is Mandelore?
don't tell me it is a cookie!
star wars culture
If it has less then 5 guns on it then it isn't GDI equipment.
Finally, a proper gunship for GDI
So much guns, that is one of the most Orky gunship models I've ever seen.
I want to see the final render and the skin for this little monster, but I bet such level of firepower won't come cheap but sure it will be worth it.
2500 per unit.
Scythe? Isn't that kind of a Noddish name?
Can this Attack Air as well as Land? It seem Able to.
CAN'T WAIT TO TRY THIS OUT!!!
Scythe sounds more Russian origin in name than it would be a NOD name since NOD tends to stick to insect/arachnid and stealth/religious names in their units. Next thing you know theres a Necris force looking for that cicada that sacked their base
actually, I find "Scythe", as a refference to "the Death", aka Darth Vader with a Scythe, pretty fitting for a GDI unit.
Are they like the nod venom or will they need an place on the airfield
Will this replace some unit or supplement the GDI Air Forces?
It's planned to replace the Orca bomber, but it might become a new unit alltogether.
IMHO it should be able to carry 1 unit / vehicle only , rather then carrying none
IMHO not. It's entirely a gunship, not an attack transport or so.
Compare it with an Apache, not a Hind.
why compare this thing to an apache when thats very clearly the Orca's job to be the anti armor gunship. its clear this thing is much heavier and is purpose built for fire support then direct attack roles. That and it looks to have on board A.D.W.S on top to keep enemy attacking aircraft from directly engaging it.
That acronym standing for Area Denial Weapon System which is a defensive weapon hard point to keep enemies from entering certain range.
I do agree it should be able to take something to and from point to point even though its not its intended use.
It isn't going to be able to carry stuff, that's the V-35's Job. Also I was comparing it to RL-helos...
And i was saying Orca's Job would compare more to the modern day Helo then something that size there in your scythe.
The closest IRL thing to the Scythe is probably the AC-130. However, Apache and Hind were the most fitting comparisons for this particular case.
Thought of something closer. What about modified Blackhawks used as gunships vs transports?
In that case, think of a blackhawk with the transport compartment made smaller and full of ammo and other stuff, but no place for transporting people.
You don't intend to have a reload functionality in this unit do you. so it operates as a constant support craft since it contains its own munitions?
Oh, it has to reload, but can operate for quite a while without returning. It's intended role is that of fire support and that of patroling large areas.
i mean in terms of in game reload system functionality.
Don`T you think this is way too OP?
Not really, no.
warum machste das nich wie den hammerhead in kanes rache? mit einem(bzw mehreren da du ja die squads aufgelöst hast)infantry-slot...es wäre trotzdem eindeutig eine offensiv einheit die sich nur besser auf die gegner einstellen könnte
Squads hab ich letzendlich behalten, weil ich nicht alle civi-gebäude umcoden will.
Das hier ist und bleibt ein fliegender mammutpanzer, da kommt keine Infanterie rein, das währe dann OP.
Ja stimmt xD
Hat NOD etwas vergleichbares im Arsenal was damit mithalten kann?
Banshees^^
haven't been here in quite a while now. this is a great update!! i hope that baby is effective against vehicles.
Not as much as against infantry and structures, but it can still smack a vehicle quite nicely.
