Command & Conquer Tiberian Dawn -- Nod 9

[nyc14gauge]

Too all the people out there arguing about flame tanks IRL, yes, there were such things as flame tanks, in WW II and Vietnam, and they were very effective. So effective that they were banned once someone thought up burning people alive was poor form. They didn't have huge flammable fuel tanks on them or look anything like that, they were just normal light tanks with flamethrowers for turrets. No, you can't buy one, either.

[suffocapitated]

LOOK OUT KANE THARES A LION BEHIND YOU!

[EITY10]

i hate kane

[Lightning4119]

"Its your move."

Shit. I can't beat him, or I'll end up with a bullet in the brain and my body preserved in a tube for some smart-assed GDI commando to come across...

[TheBlitz1]

bomb ass!

[45Coleone]

Burn, Brun, BURN!!!



[joebadams4]

Lets use this flame tank on EA shall we?

[TheBlitz1]

@joebadams4 best comment

[KILAH4716]

My move? Okay...Nod Flame Tank to GDI Base.

Checkmate.

[kungenchrille]

to all you people who debate wether or not the flametank would be any effective in real life..

ITS A GAME! its not supposed to be like in real life, becouse its all fictional!!!

who knows, maybe this flametanks is superduper good in some way that makes it invulnerable?

[duckmanham]

@kungenchrille Maybe the fuel tanks are heavily reinforced with armor that is better than the rest of the armor on the tank, making them no longer a weak point?

[dragonstormx]

@duckmanham

Still, their pretty much obsolete in real life. They were used in WWII, but their job was to clear out bunkers and entrenchments, anti-infantry work was done by machines guns, which had much greater range than a flamethrower and easily mounted a regular tank. Right we have hand grenades and artillery shells for clearing places out, so we don't really need flamethrowers.

[kungenchrille]

i love command and conquer so much... best games ever...

its just so sad that the latest one was screwed over by EA :'(

[raziel44]

We do not speak of that abomination.

[Crymson1]

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. This thing would be a mobile bomb. One shell would ignite the fuel.

[dragonstormx]

Kane gives you a tank that has a couple huge fuel tanks that would easy targets for GDI's tanks and expects to it be useful. He needs to hire some new weapons engineers.

[bobbinsthethird]

Yeah, who knows what he was thinking. Maybe it's something in it's design that stops it from exploding?

[dragonstormx]

A tank shell would punch a hole in it an render it harmless even if it didn't explode.

[bobbinsthethird]

Who knows, maybe they have some sort of system

[OldSkoolgamerz]

Flame Tanks weren't designed to go head-on against armored vehicles lol.

[dragonstormx]

That goes the same for regular infantry men, but they get attacked by tanks. Also, soldiers with anti-tank guns could beat a flame tank easily because anti-tank guns have much greater range then flamerthrowers.

[darthbandon10]

Thats why you don't use flame tanks unsupported.

[dragonstormx]

Then the other tanks would do all the work, the flame tanks would just try and avoid getting shot.

[chica476]

IRL?

[Volkov85]

Purifing Flames....

[OldSkoolgamerz]

Playing chess with Kane...epic. lol

Even though he'd beat me a million times and I won't win once (I suck at chess, and of course, he's a mastermind strategist. Common sense there).

[PPKDude852]

Well after looking at the first backround image, it's safe to assume that Kane now owns MGM.

[dragonstormx]

What's MGM?

[PPKDude852]

Metro-Goldwin-Mayer

Its a company that produces movies, like Paramount and Universal.

[Tigerman1138]

@dragonstormx Y---You're kidding right?! EVER SEEN ANY MOVIE?! MGM- Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios. The LION ROARS before a movie or TV show. There are TOO many to list but surely you've seen Tom & Jerry Cartoons.

The Wizard of Oz, Gone with The Wind, and one of my favorites: WAR GAMES

Rent WAR GAMES if you haven't seen it.

The Thomas Crown Affair, The World is Not Enough,

[Redroniksre123]

Question of the Day:

If you could, in one more move, win a chess game against Kane, would you do it?

[dragonstormx]

No, he's probably a sore loser.

[Galayman2]

haha, at the end of this video, it's the most common line in Yu-Gi-Oh, it's your move

[utubeaccount00]

this predates your child's game

[Galayman2]

I'm not saying it's a childs game though. I am just taking what Kain says and applying it to where I have heard it used most.

[DarthNoobius]

at last my latest dream has come tru...I AM PLAYING CHESS WITH KANE! MWHAHAHAHAHA...checkmate lol

[Hosea22]

Ammunition for the flame weapon was either carried inside the tank, in armoured external storage, or in some cases in a special trailer behind the tank (Churchill Crocodile).

[Hosea22]

A number of methods of production were used. Typically they were modifications (either field or factory) of existing tank chassis. Flamethrowers were either modified versions of existing infantry flame weapons (Flammpanzer I and II) or specially designed (Flammpanzer III). They were mounted externally (Flammpanzer II), replaced existing machine gun mounts, or replaced the tank's main armament (Flammpanzer III).

[Hosea22]

Flame tanks are used to supplement combined arms attacks against fortifications or other obstacles. They only reached significant use in the Second World War, during which the United States, Soviet Union, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom (including members of the British Commonwealth) all produced flamethrower-equipped tanks.

[Hosea22]

A flame tank is a term commonly applied to a tank or other armoured fighting vehicle equipped with a flamethrower.

[Rikogarson]

This game is fucking hard!!!! i cannot do the gdi 8th mission...

[Starman117]

try this one, even with over a decade of stratergy gaming under my belt i can't do it.

[nukeboy14]

woot , chess(i suck at chess, i will probably lose 2 the messiah)

[looker999997]

Kane: 'Our African campaign is going well...' *random lion in the background*

[darthbandon10]

Haha yeah for some reason he likes displaying random animals on the screen..

[dedmonds1988]

brilliant line at the end

"its your move" - *fade out* - start of mission

loved that

[IconOfSin24148]

The thing is DieOfGoodLuck, perhaps it doesn't seem that way (that TD is based off of the GDI ending). I mean nominally yes, but the Nod campaign is in Africa, and the GDI one in Europe. Theoretically, the Nod campaign could be the one coming first, and then GDI, since you're only really taking over Africa in the Nod campaign, and using the Ion Cannon once.

[eoghangeoghegan]

GDI mission 4 is impossible. can anyone help me.

[PaintSniffer07]

isn't that the one where you have to build a base to take out the two big nod bases?

[kaisernevikZ]

i cant seem to play this mission, everytime i try it, the game crashes =( can some1 help me? (note* im using the first decade)

[tippership]

i WISH someoen would pos tthe stealth tank cutscene, IT's IMPOSSIBE to find...

this mission was hard..

[golfclubwwe]

I love how you're playing chess with him in this clip. lol!

[SCE2AUX]

If he's moving his king, he's probably in trouble. Or maybe he's just castling.

[5725551]

o i get it thay panted there flame tank to look like gdi to tric the people

[Jonhny2]

Imagine 10 of those surrounding a GDI mammoth tank. PWNED!

[joebadams4]

since when did GDI have a flame tank and NOD have a medium tank?

[AthCom]

"Notice the GDI Flame Tank destroying the downtown area."

[Roguethoughts]

Actually against structures the Flame tank was the best.

Note how in the scene it's painted in GDI colors.

[MuggerHugger]

I wanna play chess with kane

[ComradeQ]

Me: "Checkmate, Kane, I just got your king"

Kane: "No you didn't" (Uses stealth tech on King)

Me: "Damnit Kane!!!"

[ZugBub]

lol he just shoots your king in the head when he's not looking like with Seth

[darren1455]

Me: Check. I win!

*shot

[navnforfandenda]

you can't beat kane in chess, his king lives in death!

[maxins]

Look @ how that flame tank turns hahaha!

Its turn rate owns haha the CnC3 Flame tanks turn rate lol

[Riku1135]

I love the flame tank

[Zoomer30]

I hear the cops. Its like an episode of Bad Boys.

Dipatcher: Car 43 go to the corner of 5th and main, we have a.....a....well youll see when you get there.

Car 43: What the %&^$ its a $%* flame tank all I got is a six shooter. AAAH!

[fuckwackemcees]

The flame tanks sucked in the game though <_<

[firefbx]

yea too slow

[qqqCYBERLEADERppp]

not if u used it correctly

[Owen150194]

Kane owns and so does his flamethrower tank militia :P

[Kanfazar]

I get the feeling that Kane is pretty good in chess... Not that anyone would dare to win against him even if they could.

[osten22]

i just love this tank!

Just put a bunch of infantry in front of it ''AIHH AY AA!!!''

[BigDickCheney]

It's your move.

[Jarsia]

No other flame tank compared.

[DoctorFist]

damn, kane was cool

[EphesianShade]

Thats one nasty looking flame tank.
