USA belongs between allies and chinese, Allies only killed civs when necessary, USA just does a lot of colateral...

I like RotR Soviets!

And who doesn't like Nod? Our lovable bald messiah beats your actors any day GDI

And I think I'm the only USA man here due to there great defensive potential (sometimes I just want to turtle lol)

When talking of the soviets as evil, one must consider whether it is the RA or RA2 soviets one is talking about. RA2's Soviets didn't strike me as very evil - no gassing dissidents Confused

GDI isn't that saintly either - they're very focused on what needs to be done, whether it kills those mutant prisoners or not.

I love CABAL too. CABAL has so much power, but CABAL actually doesn't have the strategy to use it, otherwise he would've never been shut down. And the Soviets were pretty nice, they just had an evil advisor (Yuri before he went and created a small island empire). I love the Soviets. they have that awesome moon mission with the flying laser astronauts (were they Cosmonaughts?)

I know! BORING. They're just kinda trying to take over the world and kill the US president, what'll they do afterwards? Have themselves crowned king?

How could they sux?They bombed Pearl Harbor without no one knowing when.Their sword,the katana,able to cut through metal armour.Utilized Kamikaze(thanks to them there is a new way of using this tactic-suicide bombing aka terrorism).Have TONS of robotics,both fantasy and real life.They're just smart.

IHTA that the Empire of th... is pretty lame with their transformer rip-offs(and the Steel Ronin is nothing more than a hideous looking gundam Confused

No no no, Ra2 Soviets are the evil faction. In Ra2 the faction "good guys" and "bad guys" are drawn clearly because of its style. Ra2 Soviets are clearly evil because they kill each other and have a eyebrow-less, goatee wearing bald guy who lives in Transylvania. The Allies on the other hand are good, working Americans only trying to live in peace and get attacked while not looking - treacherous!

In Ra1 however the lines between good and evil are a little more blurred (as is in reality, because really there is no such thing as good/evil, its fairytale logic). The Allies not only look very similar to the Soviets but use similarly powerful weaponry unlike Ra2 (Soviets mind control and Nuke things while the Allies harness nature). While Ra1 Soviets cutscenes are very brutal they only make you want to fight the Allies more! They make you believe in your goal (which turns it around from being evil, to being good). In reality a globally controlled state would be better than mixed countries waging war all the time.

Of course, C&C1 had the best "blur" between the line...

Lt Albrecht · Posted: Thu May 21, 2009 4:29 pm Post subject:

I hate clear-drawn black and white good and evil. It spoils the whole point of evil, which is sometimes you just can't see it or dismiss it as "necessary"... In RA2/3/C&C3 the good/evil line is so clearly drawn the "goodness" of the factions could be done with a pie chart... That is BORING, sometimes I want my bad guys to do a little good and my good guys a little bad. Life is more interesting when there's a little chaos.

No, the Steel Ronin is a Rip off of Gurren Lagann.
I'm a Mecha Fan, I know. One of the Concept arts even shows gurrens face on it. though I think its cool for looking at a modern mecha show as opposd to the mecha tengu looking like a original VF-1 from macross.

Sorry, a bit off topic.

No they don't. Despite their best efforts Nod is never destroyed.

Lt Albrecht · Posted: Fri May 22, 2009 11:20 am Post subject:

No, but they always stop them from taking over the world/turning everyone into tiberium blobs etc. Nod never wins either and on the scale of things the "canon" endings are always in GDI's favour.

Firestorm kane is gone *again* and CABAL has been stopped, not too shabby...
Waffles doesn't count, and anyways Nod have to be a plausible threat or C&C would be BORING...
