GDI Act 4: Alien Invasion Questions

[VolnuttHeroP64]

What do the Alien Invaders (Scrin) want in Act 4 of the GDI Campaign & what secrets do these Alien Towers Contains?

Here's my theroy on what secrets the Alien Towers contain:

By using the alien towers to mankind's advantage, GDI will be reorganized into a United Earth Government and using man-made hands, we can restore the alien tower & unlock a complex technology called: Robotech. In other words, turning an Alien tower into a Space Fortress with a crew from Robotech Academy.

Scrin bonus campaign gives an exact intel on towers.
Something may be found in Kane's Wrath too.

Basically what they do,is transfer Tiberium (or Ichor) to the Ichor Hub located wherever Scrin are originally.

There was a news clip on the Aliens' towers near the end of the GDI Story in Act 4 before endgame.

Yes but since GDI aren't exactly Scrin, they have no idea of the Tower abilities,so they take the direct approach aka "sword & fire".

They only took assumptions of what they can do.

Also that stuff after the screenshot is just nonsense.

Its my point of view on what secrets the towers contain.

GDI have no idea what the towers do

Nod believe it's a portal to their world

I haven't played the Scrin campaign yet, but it either agrees with Nod or disagrees


You are free to believe what you want, since the GDI ending has it open-ended that way.

But when the Nod and Scrin campaign says X or Y, you can't argue with it

[Doombreed]

Officially they are what Phil said, constructed to allow for large scale tiberium harvesting by warping large amounts of Tiberium around them to the Screen homeworld and the mysterious Ichor Hub (Scrin refer to tiberium as Ichor). So yeah, your theory is wrong I am afraid :) As for why Kane is correct on them, well, that is revealed on CNC 4 in which Kane's character and physiology are further explained but because CNC 4 sucks, I'd suggest just straight up reading it from the wiki :p

What do the aliens want? To enslave the Earth just like in ID4?

In all likely hood since there is an Ichor hub there is probably scores of other planets ravaged by Tiberium. The scrin launch a meteror at an unsuspecting planet, wait for the tiberium to get to the point that the indiginious population to die off or kill eachother off then go in and commence large scale harvesting.
SPOILERS: If you listen in the scrin campaign, the signal for when the scrin begin is when a natural Liquid Tiberium Detonation is detected. Kane provoked the Ion Cannon Strike on temple prime to detonate the liquid tiberium to draw the Harvesting fleet to Earth. The overseer comments on how well the indiginious population is fighting back and finds out the LQ tiberium explosion was deliberate. Now this is only supposed to be a harvesting fleet and not an invasion force. They expected to find a dead planet rich in Tiberium. in the canceled game TIBERIUM we were supposed to see the full on invasion that the overloard mentioned. But alas it was canceled and we get.... C&C 4 instead.

TIBERIUM was canceled because it was too low to warrent in quality.
