I tried this in another gaming mod forum, and they liked it, so I took some screens and thought I'd try it here. The basic concept is to post freaky, or amusing screenshots from Contra. Just for the fun, this can be anything from big booms to odd unit/structure placement.

Right, now the pics I took...

Undead Aurora! It was unselectable, clearly wreckage but it was STILL flying!
Posted Image

You'd think they'd get that it was indestructible? Maybe it should be ANI; Artificial No Intelligence!
Posted Image
10 Seconds later and they're still firing!
Posted Image

"We are the Shoe Liberation Army! We fight for shoes!"
Posted Image

Believe it or not, those minigunners are actually dead, they just stayed stood up like that for a while...
Posted Image

Mid-Air Wreckage! The following bits of wreckage stayed like that for ages after we nuked them!
Posted Image
If you look carefully, the red dot in my base (Green) is where a tank landed from a previous nuking, intact!
Posted Image
And this one flew all the way into the enemy base!
Posted Image

"Those rebels have got to stop playing with their tanks on the runway! They always leave a big mess!"
Posted Image

This may not look funny but I (Red) was actually Tank Gen! And that's Robot Gen's Drone!
Posted Image

How this is possible in reality, I have no clue...
Posted Image

Post your thoughts and opinions and if you guys want I can post more. Plus you guys can post your own! It's always a good laugh so particpate with whatever you got!

I have some questions to you.

1. What is the bug on the screenshot where you wrote "We fight for shoes!"
2. As for the last screen (with Shaitan). What target it is shooting at? Ground or air? And what is that red trail?

Firstly, there's no bug, it's just a funny thing my mate came up with. If you're still unsure read what I put above it.

Secondly, that's a beacon, you use them online to draw people's attention to something.

i think he means what the shaitan tank is shooting ash ... creator it was shooting at some drones above robot gens guardian drones... (that sounds wrong) let me explain: cybernetic gens guardian and sentry drones can also have a drone upgrade granting them a flying drone. as ash was moveing his shaitan forward it started shooting at cybernetics AIR drones (the ones above his ground drones AKA the flying upgrade drones) and the result was the shaitan moveing its cannons way up i think... it also could shoot at ground like that but its turrets would go back down slowly and shells would fly out from the tip of its cannons to the enemies building... sorry if this is hard to understand its a bit complex.

and that red smoke is a beacon... you place them online to warn your team member(s) where somethings happening.

and there isnt any bug on the GLA "we fight for shoes" picture... is it something you saw that you think was a bug?

...It was actually shooting at a drone, probably thrown into the air by my Nuke, I even saw the wreckage land a couple seconds after my Shaitan had finished off what it was shooting at.

No, that's not what I meant, the unit flew up into the air, came down later and it must've been the impact cos it sort of crumpled...

This was an inpenatrable defence. most units would die passing through the fire, only fast or heavy armored units made it past to the line of death.
