Our team works on both model updates and missions now. This is the first update which contains a model created for missions only. This is EMP Tower. You will see it in Challenge mode against USA Boss. Yes, unique USA Boss army with secret units is almost completed now. I will reveal a small part of it. This tower will disable all land vehicles and destroy all aircrafts in large area. So, the only way to destroy it is to attack with infantry.

Next USA building is Web Defense System for Super Weapon General. One of these turrets detects an enemy and transfers coordinates to another one. The another turret attacks.

Lets talk about GLA now. Players know that Stealth General had problems when fighting against China. ECM tanks deviated missiles and there was no non-missile weapons in his arsenal. This disadvantage is fixed now. Missile Scorpion was replaced with new Scorpion-II. Its principle of operation in the same: powerful shot with long reload time. But shells can not be deviated by ECM now.

Yet another GLA model is just a replacement for old Assault General's Quad Tank model. This is a visual update. No unit parameters were changed.

Many players asked for ligt GLA helicopter. Here it is. It is very light though. This flying trooper is under testing yet and we did not make final decision about his weapons and abilities yet. The most probably, he will replace one or two bikers in Assault General's army.

And here is the last model in this update - replacement for old Tank General's Gauss Tank model. No unit parameters were changed as well.

well,the ECM tank could be either taken by a hijacker or blown up by a terorist/bomb truck,or shot by Jarmen Kel,or mortar buggy,or angry mob...even multiple rpg\missle scorpions would easily decimate the area under the ECM ...I don't see the great disadvantage there...However,the update is great,but one question - how does the new scorpion upgrade - better cannon,or multiple cannons?

There IS a disadvantage. Stealth general's scorpions were useless. Imagine if the enemy has a listening outpost nearby and some other units defending the ECM. You can't do anything. In 007 everybody used Mortar Buggies, but they were often getting destroyed by airplanes, helicopters or fast ambushes.
You can see the three versions of Scorpion salvage from the screenshot. It's for Stealth general only. Pay attention to the back of the cannon. And the cannon is bigger.

thanks,I didn't pay atention to the models
as far as tactics goes,stealth general has the Destroy Radar ability (I allways use it),but it's does require carefull planning and scouting beforehand...but that is what stealth general is all about - knowing your enemy units better than he knows yours :)

Hi Guys, nice work! I hope it will be the mod of 2012...
I have suggestion (if it's not an offtopic) for the GLA Alshain Trooper: it may have the ability to repair friendly vechicles, and the ability to disable enemy units. The more Alshain you use the faster repair/disable is granteed.
OR
It may have the Capture Building ability after upgrading like rebels, and can leech money from enemy Supply Centers by default (Assa gen can have a great advantage in the beginning by using these troopers, but to be balanced they leech only 20$/sec)
OR
Alshain troopers can have stealth detection ability and large sight range, after upgrading they may become a flying Hijacker.
Just a few ideas of mine. Use them as you want. Merry Xmas and Succesfull New Year!
