The Xenoforce Reborn mod takes the classic Xenoforce mod from CNC Generals and re-invisions it on the CNC3 engine with new units and new designs. The new armies that are currently scheduled to be in the mod are the Earth Federation, ZEON, the Invid, and the Earth Robotech Defense Force. We also have heavily modified the original CNC3 armies, giving the GDI, NOD, and Scrin a much more dynamic gameplay experience. This mod is NOT FOR PROFIT and NON-commercial based.
GDI is starting to go through a few changes as well, we will be removing the Mk 4's from being a drop in power and making them mass production units, removing the Zone Armor units from a mass production units and making them drop-in only, and adding these guys in.
The SDI Armored Gear series are GDI's Orbital Assault equipment. The SDI (Space Defense Initiative) are the elite of the GDI forces, if your a Gundam fan think of them as the Titans of the Earth Federation or even what the Marines are to the Navy. The SDI is made up of only a few different types of units, Zone Armor, Armored Gear, and modified Kodiak ships. These units are designed for combat in space and space-to-surface assaults be it to colonies or planets.
All Armored Gears share a few things in common. They have 2 hard turret points on the top of the gear where different weapon types can be swapped in and out, they have thrusters that they use for movement instead of the normal walker type, and they use their legs for support when firing their main weapon. The Main weapon that each Gear is equipped with is a Devastation Cannon, a massive cannon that fires directly at enemy targets at normal range dealing an incredible amount of damage to structures and defenses as well as to normal units. Since these units are dropped in from space, well, you can see how Armored Gears and Zone Armors working together can make GDI an amazingly dangerous enemy to fight against.
Oh, and if anyone asks, this model was 100% done by me from scratch but the model itself is based on Metal Gear Rex so its my model but not my design. Always liked Rex.....
Looking good :)will we see shagohod too? :D
The Shagohod is an interesting design but to me that seems like something NOD would have, not GDI.
Looks like it got a nice parody of metal gear Rex. The movement shows only flying in hover mode instead of its legs walking on the ground.
Correct, it doesn't walk it only hovers. It's meant to be used in space and deployed into the atmosphere much like the drop pods so it only uses its legs for landing and support when firing its weapons on the ground. Otherwise it hovers while it moves. I had it walking at one point and it looked good but it also looked like something from the Shattered Steel Games and not what we were looking for.
