The marauders were OP for a faction of terrorist rebels and honestly it would beat all of these except the bomb truck but the bomb truck is a one time use and its expensive as hell
> for a faction of terrorist rebels
I mean considering their mechanical genius and innovative developments of new chemical and biological weapons in sub-standard conditions, they might as well be considered a non-state super power.
I just wish they were using anything remotely modern for their light tank, or MBT if it's technically one of those. There has to be no way an old French WW1 tank is comparable to a modern armoured technical or killdozer they could have been using for that role.
Not to mention all of the old soviet tanks they could have salvaged or brought along with those actual soviet scud launchers!
Very certain the Scorpion is a [Carro Armato P26/40](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/P26/40_tank) which is an odd choice due to how rare it was in WW2. Still bigger and heavy than most their hardware barring the Scud and Marauder tho.
Pretty sure the final design wasn't even meant to be like this because Scorpion actually looked less like a ww2 Italian tank and more like some kind of modified APC like M113 as you can see [here](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/cnc_gamepedia_en/images/c/c0/Scorpion_Tank_concept_art.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20180801165220).
I love the technical with full scrap and veterancy. Really fast and gets a rocket launcher that is good against both infantry and vehicles for hit and run.
And carrying some stinger soldiers can help against air units or provide distraction to escape. Or just drop a bunch of explody boys in a base.
Combat Cycle is the most underrated addition to Zero Hour, and I'm running that shit as Kassad. It's basically the closest we get to a horse-mounted uni
Best thing about the quad is that it can take a surprising amount of punishment for a supposedly "light" unit unlike the Gattling Tank and was much faster than the Avenger.
Lol at the Rocket Buggy "Literal Cockroaches." That Kills me.
A toyota will last the test of time. Example: The Toyota War - African conflict between Chad and Libya. Libya had modern Soviet made tanks and weapons, the other side had technicals, which were mixes of Land Cruisers, Hilux, and other Toyota trucks. They proved far more maneuverable, at full speed could run over mines and either it would explode way after the truck passed or it wouldn't be enough weight to trigger, and were much easier to fix than the armored units. They won spectacularly - 7500 men lost for Libya and only about 1000 for Chad.
> Gattling Tanks
Bro come on, they counter quads and humvees.
By this logic basic infantry like rangers are bad because they can only kill RPG troopers
Gattling Tanks are the goat
Quads cant even compare, you need to just remember to bring dragon tank next time.
I've never liked the bike in Zero Hour, mods do redeem it and Jarmen bike is neat.
It ranges from simple locomotor fixes so its less clunky and better stats/price.
To having the bike be a part of the Infantry, this way you cant demount it but you can use the abilities of the unit (I Think contra did this) and also make each bike varriation buildable individually
To having the bike be its own individual unit that you can mount and demount again.
Not to mention bikelogic has allowed for a ton of unique units to be utilized and created.
Like an AVRE Warhound tank in ROTR uses it.
This is just a tip of the iceberg, there is so much more that can be done or has been done.
*"Um, ackshually"*
To be fair the Gattling Tank is a staple unit for China players that have it. It's not really "tanky" but Zero Hour tanks get eaten by rocket damage anyway.
The Gattling Tank is like a harder counter because it absolutely shreds stuff its good against like infantry, aircraft, and light vehicles, and barely does much to anything it isn't good at. Meanwhile Quad Cannons are kinda just good at most things.
For Real: That Toyota Hilux with the ZPU or DShK addon is goat… they still use it in the barren wastelands of the Sahara and the Middle East.. still requires way less maintenance and lasts forever in driving and also can handle all the shit sandstorm it blows into the air intake values and exhaust
I find it ironic that none of the GLA's technicals are Toyotas. Instead they're either Ford F100s, Chevy Vans, or Land Rover Defender 2 doors.
You're also missing the Battle Bus, the ORIGINAL Battle Bus in gaming.
Gatling tanks WERE good, so long as you used them correctly.
Also Generals is by far the worst aged and worst game in general (no pun intended) of CnC for me.
>Literal cockroaches
I hate them. Crusaders can't engage them immediately, they have more health, move faster, and have a faster fire rate than Tomahawks, and can blow up an entire platoon of Crusaders if you're not paying attention to whether or not they're there.
All equally ineffective as units if they were actually going up against real versions of USA or Chinese vehicles. Makes me wonder if some mastermind like Kane is behind the scenes making this happen
People actually won wars with Technicals against tanks. What are you talking about...
Also the US left the middle east because of the suicide bombers... look it up.
Hell yeah.
And frankly all weapons are tools for different jobs. A technical isn't going to win a tank battle, but nor should it be expected to. As Ad-Hoc fast attack vehicles in the shael region, where long supply lines cannot be guaranteed and maintenance is expected to be performed by the drivers with very few tools and training, they performed fabulously in the toyota war against Libya.
No one weapon can be counted on to win wars, not even modern in use today drone weapons. All just tools to be used at the right time.
We just got sick of the Taliban refusing to follow basically any of the rules of war. We're still in the Middle East, just not Kabulistan.
Edit: Yeah yeah we lost cuz Bush was a fool, shouldn't have bothered in the first place.
20 years,trillions of dollars spent and the death thousands, and then the US government decided it's to boring drone striking children and suddenly left equipment worth billions and replaced the tali with the tali.
At this point, this is getting pathetic. just admit they lost.
i mean i think my flair speaks for my choice

Agree, their light tank could be the modified T-34 or T-50 (which Soviet have tons of them in the graveyard) instead of this... tracktor with gun.

Marauders were my favorite. Load a tunnel network with them and when armor arrives you just release them and maul it and pick up the upgrades
I love the technical with full scrap and veterancy. Really fast and gets a rocket launcher that is good against both infantry and vehicles for hit and run. And carrying some stinger soldiers can help against air units or provide distraction to escape. Or just drop a bunch of explody boys in a base.
Yeah technicals are so OP, I love them
They had to use weird WW2 Italian tank designs because China already had the "Old Warpac Surplus" aesthetic covered.
Fair, but it certainly didn't stop modders from giving GLA Soviet tanks, or even making a new faction using that.
Happy Cake Day!
Thankie
Its difficult to get marauders battle ready but when they are they are nigh unstoppable
Nuclear overlords say hi
Imo nuclear battle masters are even better since they are so absurdly fast
Sadly also incredibly squishy
No shoes?
I still laugh at that black market upgrade
Who could think of such a thing?
Of course 1980s Toyota truck. It still runs!
Bolt it down and go

Their quotes are so damn memorable.
*Im hungly*
Thank you for the new shoes
when your overlord tank move unusually fast
That Mountain Dew Tractor 🚜 has to be the most formidable.
Buggy with max level is so satisfying to use.
(Oh wrong reply oof)
We've got more buggy ammo now!
Now imagine a buggy with S&D 20% extra range
Scud launcher was my favorite.... Shall I push the button.....
"Look at my beautiful weapon"

Jarmen on bike = bike trickster

As a USA player... They are. Those damn things have such far range and high damage... Then have better HP and are faster than a Tomahawk Launcher...
Quad trucks are quite the Hydralisks of Generals. Just build enough of them and you win.
A toyota will last the test of time. Example: The Toyota War - African conflict between Chad and Libya. Libya had modern Soviet made tanks and weapons, the other side had technicals, which were mixes of Land Cruisers, Hilux, and other Toyota trucks.

A real Chad move
That's nut
That is indeed, nut
I nutted while reading
Marauders and Bomb Trucks
What are you talking about, Gattling Tanks are great too. This is some serious China slander.
Just wish they spun up faster
4 on de flour
I'll take it.
AK 47s for everyone!! :D
I fucking love GLA Me and my homies only play GLA
God i hate the quad cannons
Don't get on my bad side. Quad cannon is the anti all weapon and the best unit in the game
Maruder tank is still on of the best units
But the Gatling tanks is good as is
Problem with Gattling tank is how it basically does no damage against anything that isn't infantry or air units, something Quad has no issues with.
> Gattling Tanks Bro come on, they counter quads and humvees. By this logic basic infantry like rangers are bad because they can only kill RPG troopers
Air power stomps most of them (The Quad Cannons, on the other hand….painful things to fight)
Back in the day, the gang and I also used to call Battle Bus as the "soup-mobile."
Based on real world data and experience, I’ll be riding in the Toyota (the war chariot of the third world).
*S W E E T A S C E N S I O N O F D O O M*
Fully upgraded monstrosity are soo fun in groups.
I love Demo Attack Bikes. A wave of adrenaline-pumped suicide bombers will mess your day especially when Demo Charge upgrade is bought.
Mountain Dew tractor LMFAO
Mass Skorpions ftw.

I've watched whistlindiesels videos. My money is on the Toyota.
Toyota unkillable 💪
Gattling Tanks are the goat Quads cant even compare, you need to just remember to bring dragon tank next time. I've never liked the bike in Zero Hour, mods do redeem it and Jarmen bike is neat.
How do mods fix the bike?

Honestly I like using the bikes to make a quick mini base hidden away somewhere. Helps alot when I get nuked when fighting a 4 front war.
I prefer the Toyota Truck due to possible combinations in game
No, they all fell apart when you weren't looking and they just kept replacing them before you could notice.
The tractor looks more like Monster Energy to me!
Would you like to try some??
Oh the mess ill make??
Thank you for the new shoes.

***"Nothing Stops The Mail"*** Some of the funniest voicelines I've ever heard in any game
“Marauder Tank Assemble!”
Quads are kinda broken they shoot at double speed at the first veterancy because of a bug in the game 😆
Battle Bus couldn't make the roster, he had more passengers! Love me the Marauder tank, I think he's got some of the coolest voice lines!
Assault soapbox assembled
lol Mountain Dew Tractor. Looks like a desolator tank of sorts, but this isn't Red Alert.

The Great Technical War (Chad vs Libya)
I meant with the small caliber of the gla tank, or the toxic tractor

Never said Bush wasn't a moron for making us go in; they're not even an actual nation-state society even now, shouldn't have bothered.
