The Terminator Attraction at universal has T-70's, and the games contain plenty of usable designs. And fiction contains some too. Theres T-200, T-500, T600, and 700 series that were not shown in the movies. And the mini hunters are in Terminator 3D movie thats running at Universal. Then theres those service models, CSM-10 or L200. Skynet also had a few additional ground Hunter Killer designs, and some hovering bombs.

You get quite many usable designs for humans aswell. Technicals with plasma weaponry, reprogrammed terminator infiltrators, old human weaponry such as rocket launchers, plasma weaponry(according to fiction, Australia is only country left in the world, Heckler & Koch relocates there and produces plasma rifles for the Resistance after receiving salvaged plasma rifles for reverse engineering). Humans also had helicopters and such early in the war, until Skynet started bringing out Hunter Killers. They also had quite a bit of leftover military hardware, tanks, bases etc. But not enough to win the war with just them.

There were a few Terminator RTS mods, infact one even had a rough alpha release available in the net it was for C&C Gen: Zero Hour if i remember right.

oh, and btw its not T-101. Its T-800, the organic layer model is 101. And the "Land crawler" is called "Goliath Tank" by Resistance on a occasion..

Were did you get all this info lol.... surely not from the terminator movies?I wonder if the movies were based on the book..

[Ash]

If the old megadrive game is anything to go by, the humes could also have Robocop...


Nah. NEXUS would dick Skynet anyday

[PurpleChameleon]

Aye, Nexus = Win.

heh, my computer CAN play generals, cause i already own it. but... instead of a nice intro flyover I get a picture, breifing animations are missing, ZH breifing movies are not shown, explosion effects are nullified, various other animations are not played and it like like HELL when i nuke something.

TS had i minor release in australia compared to america, I looked for ages trying to find it to no prevail.

Renegade is fun

So I was watching T2 and now I am stuck on robots again. I needs 2.0 so I can pretend the Zephyr drones are aerial Hunter Killers and hunt down humans with Terminator and Desolater units below on the ground!

Lol... robots they sure are liked faction

anyways if you are interested in my NEXUS inspiration, terminator movies are just small part as majority of terminator world designs I don't like so i would never do a actual terminator mod as human resistance with plasma technicals goes a bit too low tech (besides the gun) like GLA while it is understandable in the movie but then the movie heavily put the advantages on skynet with all techs and humans just outdo them by being clever (traps and all) not just by conventional warfare bluntly like most RTS is.

infact all factions in RS have been inspired by multiple games/movies etc besides just my own ideas and trying them out

[Rorsta]

[Apollo]

In the beginning there was YR. It had poor gameplay, a crap story and boring sides. There was a young (getting old mind you) gamer who played YR often and was irritated at how it had such poor gameplay, a crap story and boring sides and wondered how Westwood had betrayed him with such. This gamer became known as Apollo because a) rather like the space craft, he went in new directions and was a first of his kind to make YR fun and b) he later became a god from doing so.

On the first day Apollo redesigned the Allies. He gave them new technologies, more power and a base walker called Elerium. On the second day he unified the Communist masses under the name "Freedom League" who had many Sylvester Stallones with tough mothers and uranium cores. On the fourth day he made man hate machine and produced NEXUS, the only computer you wouldn't want to hit after it deleted your essay. On the fifth day Apollo ironed out bugs and slaved away at balancing but just couldn't get it right, until the sixth day when he noticed Yuri was still there and quietly escorted him out of the back door. On the seventh day he realised his Robot Storm would need more help and Gamemate did spawn. He also realised there were only seven days in a week and so he would begin work on 2.00 in the morning.

hahaha, nice one omegabolt, wish it was that simple but no

anyway, i have begun assembling old screenshots and putting data together from those times for specific history/inspirations thread which will basically make it all clear and regards to 4th faction, reveal more spoilers about their roots as well their planned role since the beginning so no they are not recent idea but i did not think i could do them in past until i decided to try now.

long story short, it will be cut down thing all the way from 2002 with most major influences and such.
