Tiberian Sun: Revelations Story
Tiberian Sun: Revelations
Tiberian Sun: Revelations
For a long time I have wanted to release a mod that I can call my own, a mod with new units and a comprehensive campaign for both sides. Over the past few months I have been working on my personal Mod, Tiberian Sun: Revelations, and have been grooming it for a public announcement. That day has come. First of all, I would like to thank LordCesare, who has agreed to help me with creating a gritty and intriguing campaign. LordCesare has recently been making fantastic fan campaigns for Twisted Insurrection which I encourage you all to check out. This mod does make use of public assets which will be credited accordingly. Each side will receive powerful new infantry, units, super-weapons, with which provide diverse game play opportunities. The Skirmish AI has been significantly tweaked, making it far intelligent and far more deadly. This mod also uses the ETS engine which have allowed for the inclusion of several features that were missing from the vanilla Tiberian Sun game.
Now, without further a due I present Tiberian Sun Revelations.
(Note: This mod does not acknowledge the story line of Tiberium Wars)
Tiberian Sun: Revelations Storyline
Brave New World:
Ten years have passed since the events of Firestorm and fate of the world is uncertain. Nod despite being severely weakened by the Crisis has managed to hold on to some semblance of organization but for the third time in History, the Brotherhood disappeared under ground. GDI has maintained a careful vigil, knowing that with leadership, there was every possibility the Brotherhood would rise again.
Peace however was welcome and allowed for GDI to focus on other issues it was facing. The Tacitus had given GDI the means to begin cleaning up and reducing Tiberium poisoning across the planet. Modifications made to the existing Sonic technology meant GDI could start clearing vast areas of Tiberium growth, creating desolate, but habitable wastelands which were being re-settled for the first time in decades. Codenamed Project: New Eden, GDI set about reclaiming massive tracts of land across Europe, Australia and the former United States.
New Eden however, was however meeting stiff resistance from what was a surprisingly resilient, but under-represented group. Tiberium poisoning had reached critical point. The global population at this point stood at approximately 1.2 billion, with almost 64% of that living in newly the classed "Yellow Zones". Decades of existing in impoverished conditions, without access to basic sanitation and healthcare had led to mass mutation of yellow zones peoples. Almost 80% of the affected populations were suffering from Tiberium mutation of some form, with a further 40% of that, completely dependent on Tiberium in order to live. For Project: New Eden to succeed, almost 250 million mutants would have to be sacrificed.
GDI was faced with a humanitarian crisis of never before seen proportions. They were tasked with an impossible decision; risk the lives of millions to save the surviving human population? Or allow for Tiberium poisoning to continue consuming the planet. Massive relocation efforts were put into effect, with those with chronic Tiberium poisoning, being sent to “Reservations”, deeper and deeper within the Yellow and eventually Red Zones of the world. Growing unrest within the mutant population began to polarize against GDI and tensions were beginning to run higher every day.
The Rising:
For a long time, all Intel on the Brotherhood and their leader Anton Slavic were sketchy. Rumours of infighting had begun to perpetuate until one day, GDI was shocked to discover the crucified body of Slavic, hanging outside the GDI Bureau in Washington. Carved into the chest of Slavic's faceless and mutilated corpse, were the words "CESARE HAS RISEN".
Rumours had indeed been correct, although temporarily united after the Firestorm Crisis; the Brotherhood had once again fallen into disarray. Disagreements over the direction the Brotherhood should take had risen to boiling point. Slavic, leader of the Black Hand and Cesare, the self-appointed leader of the “Confessors”, had begun to wage an underground war over the future of Nod. Slavic believed that the Brotherhood should lie in quiet, awaiting the return of the Messiah, while Cesare believed that it was their duty to fulfill Kane’s dream in his absence.
Support for Slavic begun to slip away as Nod warlords and generals began to rally under Cesare, who promised that the Brotherhood’s time was at hand. Stockpiling forbidden technology, he was soon able to challenge Slavic’s forces openly, until finally, he laid siege to the Black Hand headquarters in the Brazilian Red Zone. Killed while trying to flee, Slavic’s body was recovered from the wreckage of a de-railed train which was intercepted by Cesare’ air forces. At this, the Black Hand forcibly brought into line, and Cesare a terrifying new figure, assumed command of the Brotherhood. He immediately set his sights on GDI, the heretics had gotten away with far too much, and decisive action was needed. Cesare knew that GDI’s weakness was Project: New Eden, he knew of the rebellion that brewed within the mutant population, he knew that now was the time to strike back.
In the name of Kane…

Nice story. One thing I'm curious of: is this the same Seth that Kane shot with his Beretta back in '95? Or is this a new guy who uses Seth as an alias? _________________ The future belongs to The Forgotten! QUICK_EDIT

Perhaps give him a full name? Seth ***** to set them apart. Would Seth be a popular name within Nod though? He was a traitor after all. How did Kane portray Seth after his death? Would he have been bitter and condemned him like the Kane from TD might do, or would he be cooler and more strategic like in TS/TW perhaps using his death as a weapon?
Seems like a pretty cool intro though. In the Nod campaign do you play as a Commander in Seth's army or another Nod splinter group, maybe the Black Hand? QUICK_EDIT

Name him JimBob, hang a rebel flag everywhere and make him say "The south will rise again" every two sentences. Gotta make sure his truck is three shades of grey paint, and his front lawn has a fridge somewhere and a lawn mower he hasn't used since 2030.
just my two cents.
Although, Lucian has my vote.
Female? Genevieve. Seems fitting. Always stabbing backs and shit. _________________ "Reality is a lovely place, but I wouldn't want to live there." -Adam Young QUICK_EDIT
Morpheus reminds me alot of the Matrix. Think Kane's Wrath also had a guy called Marcion which is kinda similar. How about Cesare ? Or Casera? Kinda sounds like Caesar and Caesar was a bad ass and it definitely sounds like a leader's name. _________________ QUICK_EDIT

If changing some text in word documents and tutorial.ini is considered hard you're in for a very rough road. You don't need to change any events or ideas you have for your own story ideas, just tidy up issues like Seth being used as a possitive name to make the mod more presentable and easier to understand. _________________ QUICK_EDIT

We have gone with Morpheus and I am pleased to say that work on the Nod Campaign is progressing extremely well. _________________ Beta Tester for Mental Omega 3.0
I would still advice against Morpheus, it's just one of those names everyone associates with the Matrix. Also if you look at previous Nod commander names,
Slavik = Eastern Europe
Hassan = Northern Africa (Egypt)
Vega = South America
Morpheus sounds like US name, which is probably not an area where Nod have alot of supporters. Cesare would be a Southern European name (Italy? Spain?), which is probably where Nod have alot of supporters. After all the tiberium initially started spreading from Italy. A Nod commander coming from a heavily infected red zone would add some mystery to him. Of course Morpheus could come from anywhere on the planet as well, but the name just has an american tone to it. Another good one you suggested earlier I think was Zackayev. But these are just my suggestions _________________ QUICK_EDIT
Agreed with SuperJoe, Cesare actually sounds like quite a good suggestion, you should "honour" your team member and use it . _________________ QUICK_EDIT
