i am thinking of a mod that you see the happenings of tiberian sun from the eyes of the civilians is that a good idea?
it means that i creat the civilians as a playable faction

It's been done before but if you do it right, it could be something good.

Yeah, that sounds good. The civilians wich are tired of the raging war go rebel against both sides...
Why not? Wink

Because they're civilians?

Once they organize and take up arms they're no longer civilians, they're a militia group. You can't actually have this from the eyes of "the civilians", because not all people in the world will suddenly join this group.

...in which case you might as well add the mutants and make it a 'Forgotten'-like faction. Talk to SuperJoe, he has something like that going at the moment.

Nononono, riot police and militia does not automatically equal mutants...

Orac's right

To be honest this works much better as a campaign due to scripting etc and logic for atmosphere and effects e.g. riot control soldiers in firestorm.

Civilians would never have access to tech to build a base.

Unless you went for TI's globotech route which you seem to have made up your mind on e.g. government/police (but wouldn't that be the army i.e. GDI?)

ok ok you're right i will make it a campaigne

I merely suggested the Forgotten because they too are a small, semi-complete faction in the background of the game. Adding all those factions - mutants, civilians, police, militia, etc - together under one aegis could yield some interesting concepts.
