Command and Conquer: The Ultimate War, A Clash of all the C&C Factions

[Oracle_Summon]

Hello fellow Command and Conquer fans, I have a question that I have proposed to myself and would like you to answer. Let us say that all of the factions in the Command and Conquer games are on one planet. The world has every resource for their faction to function.

This battle takes place between these factions:

Yuri

USA

Scrin

China

Nod

GLA

GDI

Forgotten

Allies

Soviets

Cabal

Empire of the Rising Sun

How do you think this battle would play out? Which way would this war yield and what forces would be left standing?

Note: Alliances are possible in this War, therefore you can vote for multiple teams.

Edit: Idea was taken from Kingkickass from Bluehell productions. Link:

Long time Command & Conquer fan, one of the first games I ever played was Tiberian sun! ^^ Me and KingKickA$$ are good friends on the forums, Reborn is an awesome mod.

Anywayyy~

In terms of Alliances, ive always seen these as pair-ups: USA, Allies & GDI, - GLA, Soviets & Nod - Empire & China. Love the Forgotten, but if an all-out war busted out, I can only see them being recruited into the warring factions, joining with the highest bidder. Cant see them as the superior race. Scrin are too mindlessly hooked on Tiberium to consider alliances, they only have one goal. CABAL probably couldent survive the amount of human onslaught they would have to face to become superior, especially Red Alert factions. Yuri would depend based on how much tech he had ready at the time of war, being small and independent. He could only mind-control so much before "brainwave overload!".

Id have to say its really tough to choose in between the 3 upper alliances in the war. They would have really balanced tech. In the end it would just be who has the best of the Rock-Paper-Scissors (+superweapons) skills.

Il just for vote for my favorite factions tho, Nod, Allies, and Empire :3

Good points.

I think the results can differ depending on who attacks who first or who is close to another faction.

I agree with you on the Alliances. Though, wouldn't China and the Empire of the Rising Sun have differing ideals and thus not form a pact?

Also, if CABAL was to face against Yuri, how would Yuri fair? Would GDI and Nod hold off the Scrin knowing the dangers that it would implement against the world?

I haven't played Generals unfortunately so I cant really speak on the ideals of USE/GLA/China, but I have a general understanding of who they are. As long as Emperor George Takai gets to clip his bonsai tree in the end with Bikini ladies on the beach, his ideals for world domination have pretty low standards lol.

It really depends if CABAL takes over the Allied and GDI control of Europe to even face Yuri, considering he's way over on Alcatraz island. Yuri however has a strong push at the beginning of the war, since his Psychic dominators are stationed all over the world thanks to Soviet funding before his betrayal, easily crippling the forces of all opposing factions, and causing huge unrest with mind-controlled citizens. CABAL would, however, would surely dominate Yuri if he reaches North America. Yuri can also be hindered by the Scrin's mass extinction plans. Even if your faith is different because of mind-control, mass panic still takes a huge factor in the moral of the people, which would surely affect the troops. The Scrin's mind control tech is limited compared to Yuri, but the Cultist parasite have direct control over their hosts, as seen by the by their unit, making it far superior in the end (not to mention they can mind control off their host as well). Do you think Forgotten would be immune to mind control?

All the other factions just have firepower going for them, so it just depends on hard-counters, moral, and numbers.

Those are excellent points you brought up. The Forgotten don't seem like they would be immune to mind control.

I presume the location of each Faction's main base plays a big role in how this war would play out as well, correct?

Yeah. The leader's location would need to be top-secret, as they are the primary source of Moral to the people. These would be Kane, The Premier, and the Emperor. The rest of the factions will be inspired by the their general leaders, and wouldn't be too paralyzed should they lose them, but rather hurt by loss of territory and cities. Considering the alliances I mentioned are in play, the "Good" forces would have about 35% world control, the "Power hungry" forces would have 45%, the "Eastern" forces would have about 25% world control (considering naval conquest), then Yuri would have 3% (considering superweapon bases) and CABAL and Forgotten both with 1%. Scrin will get a share upon their arrival. What the "Good" and "Eastern" forces make up for land is numbers, despite the "Power hungry" forces having the most land control.
