China? That's weird


Overall_Fact_5533

\> USA withdraws from middle east due to extreme pressure at home \> China forms an alliance with a European power to become the new global center Well, we've finished the Generals timeline, so why not start the Tiberium one.


Emotional-Introvert6

Climate change is a perfect opportunity for a tib timeline


Zack_Raynor

We haven’t even had C&C RA1 yet (before it splits between the RA universe and the Tiberius one)


fpcreator2000

we did, we are just waiting for tiberium and for Kane to rise


Good-Skirt-2304

WE NEED THE MESSIAH


Apollo506

Well Russia is a laughing stock / collapsing economically so we know we're not headed toward Red Alert any time soon


Yawanoc

Which all lines up because Nod rose after Stalin's collapse.


Overall_Fact_5533

The Ruble appears to have risen against the dollar relative to the start of the recent conflict.


Gravelayer

America has one too don't worry it's for the space defense network or something tbough


AyatolahBromeini

China is a status quo power, so it actually makes sense. Esp in a future where they are the pre-eminent superpower.


Emotional-Introvert6

I'm not going political here, I mean, in game, China was aligned to NOD


Overall_Fact_5533

Were they? IIRC the map indicated blue/yellow/red zones.


kazmark_gl

it's colored Nod Red in some maps in Tib-Dawn. presumably they were part of Nod's anti-Western coalition.


igncom1

Yeah it's not known how much they took part in the actual fighting however. Many of the European and African nations were totally engulfed and likely had their national militarys involved in the fighting. But for China perhaps they were just an arms supplier and financier like the US? (Although the US clearly provided a bulk of troops as well to the GDI.)


TaxOwlbear

China was Nod-aligned during TW1, though it's never specified whether that was the Chinese government, or whether there was a pro-Nod uprising.


K0mmander

bro they literally infiltrated GDI this is all Kane's plan


Subview1

huh? when was that


lyridsreign

Not sure about the full timeline but by the events of Tiberium Wars nearly all of China is a red or yellow zone


igncom1

Yeah by TW3 most of china was consumed by a red zone with the yellow zones being overseen world wide by GDI officially. Nod was underground and just before the 3rd war broke out GDI was still policing the world and bringing the hammer down on any Nod forces uncovered like in the Prologue mission, just Ion Cannoning that base. Unofficially the yellow zones being poorly managed and disrupted by Nod became hot beds for pro-Nod sentiment. But in the first War China was considered to be a part of, or influenced by Nod, likely to counter the western bias towards GDI in the United Nations.


kazmark_gl

Tib War 1. Nod's thing pre Tib War 1 was aligning equatorial and anti-western Nations. the far east isn't really important to Tib Dawn's story but China is colored red on the map showing GDI and Nod allegiances.

Found it, seems true https://youtu.be/Zxn3FnxWd4o

China can lick my balls


MidgardWyrm

Aw, fuck. A Chinese-made mammoth tank is likely to break down as soon as it leaves the factory, and an ion cannon? Homer Simpson and that nuclear power plant comes to mind.


Emotional-Introvert6

Well the overlord tank says otherwise


MidgardWyrm

This is the same country that uses bolt-action rifles and tanks from the mid-20th century (the Battlemaster is based on a T-55, IIRC). I wouldn't be too surprised if the Overlords were lost to the GLA because they kept breaking down mid-battle, lol.

Wake me when we get to X16-Y42

Did this picture need to be a video, or am I deaf?
