Tiberian Sun Revelations Story

Death Cultist

To the modding community. I am currently at a crossroads with the story line for Tiberian Sun Revelations. Without revealing to much, I was wondering what people thought of adding Scrin to the campaign. If you vote, please give a reason for what you have said. For those unfamiliar with Tiberian Sun Revelations please refer here.

Don't add the Scrin as a faction, even within the campaign. They make a good motivation or excuse for anything which is a little Deus Ex Machina, but adding them in the same sort of scale as TW would be a mistake.

i think the better idea is to add more and more mutated flora and lifeforms... it look more scary and more involving to the tiberium story

I would go with small hints of the Scrin, like the crashed scrin ship in original TS campaign. Or just a few scrin units appearing in a mission. It's better to leave some mystery to them. I recall reading some very early designs Westwood had for Tiberian Twilight, and it had a mission where GDI was going in to check a meteorite that had crashed into a city, and the meteorite was carrying scrin forces or something.

This video has some interesting things of what Westwood was up to.

I think they should be left out, only with partial references like the TS ship.
