Tiberian Dawn (known to the gaming community as Command & Conquer)
is a real-time strategy-combat game developed by Westwood Studios, the
creators of Dune II. Focusing on the global conflict between the
fictional Global Defense Initiative and Brotherhood of Nod organizations,
Tiberian Dawn puts the player in complete charge of fast paced military
operations utilizing a wide variety of troops, ground vehicles, base installations,
air strikes, and production facilities.
Tiberian Dawn features a wide range of missions with varied objectives
and sometimes multiple goals; the stark horror of conflict is punctuated
by over 40 minutes of vividly rendered cinematic presentation comprising
news footage, commercials, mission briefings and cutscene rewards. There's
large, mean-looking detailed hardware to wreak havoc with, including Orca
Fighter Craft, Raptor Attack Cycles, Devil's Tongue Incinerator Tanks,
Air Cushioned All Terrain Landing Craft and the Mammoth Heavy Battle Tanks
(to name just a few). Modem and network play make this game of world dominance
a truly global affair. |
