Campaign

In the aftermath of the Second Tiberium War, the Brotherhood of Nod lies in ruins. Kane, the cults messianic leader, is presumed dead and the surviving members have split into warring splinter factions, leaving the Global Defense Initiative dominant over the Tiberium-ravaged earth. Unbeknownst to anyone, Kane is far from dead. Horrifically injured and seething with anger, he bides his time in a bunker deep beneath the earths scarred crust, preparing for his final, most desperate gambit. To begin a Campaign, select CAMPAIGN then NEW CAMPAIGN from the Main menu. You may review your Campaign progress at any time by selecting CAMPAIGN then SELECT MISSION from the Main menu. From here, you may replay missions or continue your campaign by selecting the mission title, and clicking PLAY. You may also change the difficulty of a mission by using the slider after selecting the missions title.

Intermediate Tactics

Once youve mastered the basics of Command & Conquer 3: Kanes Wrath, make sure you familiarize yourself with other necessary tactics by referring to the Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars manual.

Core Factions

GDI forces have one mission: to save the world from the spread of Tiberium. Their aim is to abolish The Brotherhood of Nod terrorist organization and reverse the effects of Tiberium on the ecosystem so that the world can return to a sustainable level of habitability. Resourceful, organized, and heavily armed, GDI forces are direct and dependable. The GDI does sometimes need to cut through bureaucratic red tape to get things done, but once it gets up to speed, it is virtually unstoppable. In general, GDI forces prefer to stick with the tried-and-true over new-but-questionable technologies. However, GDI is a resourceful organization built to withstand punishment and respond well to unexpected emergencies.

New Factions

Steel Talons
This elite, unconventional combat battalion quickly rose to prominence in the splinter faction skirmishes that followed Nods implosion, becoming known for both their ruthless efficiency on the battlefield and for the shroud of secrecy they maintained at all other times. Willing to accept substantial technological uncertainty in exchange for even a temporary firepower advantage, the Steel Talons endorse a flexible force doctrine in order to ensure that their soldiers can, with appropriate investment, outgun any foe.
Most soldiers cannot endure significant Tiberium exposure for more than a few weeks at a time without risking serious physical and psychological damage. There are exceptions, however: men and women who find the experience of living and fighting in a near alien environment to be an enervating, engaging experience. These individuals quickly find themselves assigned to ZOCOM, and few, if any, would be happy anywhere else. ZOCOM soldiers are hardy, battle-hardened veterans, capable of bunkering down and withstanding even the most powerful assault before pushing back with equally devastating force. Between their heavy, Tiberium-resistant battle armor and their experimental, high-impact sonic weaponry technologies, they are as dangerous a foe as one would ever wish to face in the Red Zones.

The Brotherhood of the Nod
Followers of The Brotherhood of Nod do not consider themselves part of any army so much as part of a religion. They believe their leader Kane to be on the forefront of a movement to elevate the human race. Their loyalty to Kane is thought to be absolute and their convictions, unshakable. They are willing to sacrifice everything to bring victory to the Brotherhood. Nods forces are an unusual combination of poorly-equipped third-world militias with highlytrained mercenaries armed with exotic weaponry. Nods ethos is a guerilla warfare approach on the battlefield. They like to move quickly to attack and then escape without a trace. Their mixture of high-end and low-tech military gear can be exceptionally lethal, but also unpredictable.

Black Hand

Few who have faced Black Hand on the battlefield have lived to tell the tale; with their fast, aggressive style and religiously inspired focus on flame-based purification weapons, they are truly a force to be feared and respected. Perhaps the most unusual aspect of the Black Hand is that, due to their deeply religious nature, they reject both the role of stealth and soulless machines in combat. The Black Hand prefer instead to use live, visible humans whenever possiblethe key exception being their devastating, flame-spewing Purifier combat mech, each of which must be blessed by a Black Hand abbot before entering combat.
Proof that humankind was not alone in the universe came suddenly when the Scrin appeared on Earth and commenced their attack. They seem to thrive in Tiberium and, unlike us, appear to actually be healed, not harmed, by the substance. The Scrins numbers are unknown and their technology seems to be far superior to ours. Most interestingly, their technology seems to have afforded them a level of resiliency to our foreign environment. Humanity has little intel on their motives, but, unless proven otherwise, they will be treated as a serious threat.

Marked of Kane

The Marked of Kane balance finesse with massive, near overwhelming force, eschewing the hit and run tactics common to Nod in favor of substantial raids capable of devastating even the strongest encampment. With a preference for both heavy armstheir most basic infantry are comparable to the elite forces of their enemiesand carefully targeted EMP and Tiberium attacks, these cyborg warriors are as judicious in their tactics as they are terrifying in appearance.
New Units, Structures, and Powers
Command & Conquer 3: Kanes Wrath delivers an array of new units, structures, and powers to use at your disposal.

GDI Units Reaper-17

With their religious beliefs leading them to forgo both mind control and aerial combat, Reaper17 eschew the traditional Scrin Stormrider offensive in favor of directed ground attacks, modifying their forces with Tiberium-based conversion beams and shard weapons. Always at the front of such a charge is the Reaper Tripod, a mammoth assault walker that dwarfs even the Scrin Annihilator, emblematic of Reapers approach in its favoring of power over subtlety or tactical superiority.

Vehicles

Most GDI vehicles are built at the War Factory.

Slingshot

One of the fastest moving units on the battlefield, the Slingshot is perfect for chasing down enemy aircraft. Requirements: Command Post Abilities: Call for Transport Upgrades: Tungsten Shells Best utilized against structures and the slower vehicles, a blast from a Shatterer can rip through multiple targets in a single shot. Requirements: Command Post Abilities: Call for Transport The largest vehicle in GDIs arsenal, the M.A.R.V. comes with a giant sonic cannon and can harvest Tiberium directly off the battlefield. Infantry can permanently garrison the M.A.R.V. to upgrade its abilities. Requirements: Reclamator Hub Abilities: Harvests Tiberium, Garrison Infantry

Traveler-59

M.A.R.V.

Fast, nimble, and flexible in approach, Traveler-59 substitutes brute force for a more finessed combat methodology, leaning heavily on their teleportation and mind-control abilities. Traveler59 flank, infiltrate, and trap, often using their implanted slaves to lure stronger enemy forces within range of their Prodigies. While their flexibility doctrine precludes Traveler-59 from utilizing bulky Scrin forcefield generators, the massively increased movement speed provided by their advanced articulation technology more than compensates.

Global Conquest

The Global Conquest is a strategic game of territory control and world war, fought over the Tiberium-infected Earth of 2047. You and up to two other players can choose one of the three primary factions to play, with each faction also encompassing your sub-factions. However, each game must always have three players, with the core factions represented by either a player or computer opponents. Your goal is to eliminate the other players from the map, or achieve your factions alternate victory condition. To start a Global Conquest game, click Global Conquest in the Main menu then click New Global Conquest. If you are new to Global Conquest, check out the Tutorial to familiarize yourself with the rules and user interface.

Bases are the foundation of your army, and are denoted by a Construction Yard portrait on the world map. Select your base by left-clicking on the portrait image. The contents of the base will be displayed in the sidebar on the right side of the screen. For details on base abilities, see Base Abilities on p. 31.

Strategic Structures

Strategic Structures can be purchased at Tier 3 bases by left-clicking the Build Strategic Structure button in the Command Bar. Strategic Structures unlock new Support Powers, and may also grant new technology like Epic Units.
Note: The Scrin Threshold Tower Strategic Structure is required for their alternate victory

condition.

Strike Forces
Strike Forces are compositions of units that can move freely around the world. Strike Forces are denoted by a Diamond icon on the world map, and share the same house color of the primary faction. Select a Strike Force by left-clicking on the Diamond. The contents of the Strike Force will be displayed in the Sidebar on the right side of the screen. Strike Forces are recruited from bases. For details on Strike Force abilities, see Strike Force Abilities below.

The Phases of Gameplay

Gameplay in the Global Conquest Mode is split into three specific phases. The Action Phase allows you to give orders to bases and Strike Forces, including movement and attack orders, and queue up support powers. The Powers Phase is when all queued Support Powers are executed, followed by Strike Force movement commands. The Battle Phase is when all battles are fought and resolved. After all battles are resolved, the game automatically transitions to the next turn, at which point all previous turns build orders are executed and new resources are gained.

Battle

When enemy Strike Forces and/or bases collide on the world map, they engage in battle. Battles are denoted by a yellow square surrounding the participants, and can be easily found by clicking the crosshair icon in the Command Bar during the Battle Phase. The battle can be activated by left-clicking within the yellow square on the world map.

Battle Engagement

The Battle Engagement screen shows what forces the player and the computer AI have in their arsenals. Unit portraits are displayed for Strike Forces, and structure portraits are displayed for bases. Battles can be resolved either in real-time or by auto-resolving.

Auto-Resolving

Battles can be auto-resolved by clicking the Auto-Resolve button at the bottom of the engagement screen. Auto-resolving fights the battle automatically at the world level, and determine a winner by calculating the strength of each army.

Real-Time

Battles can be fought in real-time by clicking the Real-Time button at the bottom of the engagement screen. Real-time battles occur in the tactical RTS game, with each side controlling the forces seen in the engagement screen. Strike Forces with MCVs or Drone Platforms can construct bases in the tactical game as well. Real-time battles end when one side has lost all of their units and structures. The winner can never return to the strategic layer with more forces than what they brought in, but losses in the real-time battle persist back to the strategic layer.
Note: The computer AI becomes more challenging in real-time battles as their difficulty setting

increases.

Victory Conditions
Military Victory Alternate Victory Condition All sides can win the game by destroying all the other factions bases. The Alternate Victory progress of each faction will be displayed in the Global Condition Bars, which are under the Mini-Map. The bars fill as each faction gets closer to achieving their Victory Condition. GDI Acquire 33% of the land area under their Area of Influence. You can expand your Area of Influence by constructing and upgrading the Tiers of more bases. Brotherhood of the Nod Raise 24 Cities to the full (red) Unrest level.

Performance Tips

System Requirements
It is essential that your PC meets the Minimum Requirements as detailed on the games packaging. If you are experiencing poor performance, check to make sure your system hardware supports the requirements.

Background Tasks

In some cases programs that are running on your system can monopolize resources that the game needs in order to install, load, and run properly. Not all of these programs are immediately visible. There are a number of programs, called background tasks, that are always running on your system.
Important Note: While shutting down background tasks will optimize your
system for running Command & Conquer 3: Kanes Wrath, these background tasks features will be unavailable once shut down. Be sure to re-enable background tasks after playing Command & Conquer 3: Kanes Wrath by restarting your computer.
If your system is running anti-virus or crash guard programs you will need to close or disable them to run Command & Conquer 3: Kanes Wrath. To do this, find the icon for the program on the Windows Taskbar and then right-click the icon and select close, disable, or the relevant option. Please note that these programs will be reactivated the next time you restart your computer. Once anti-virus and crash guard programs have been disabled, you should end all unnecessary general background tasks. To view and close background tasks (Windows XP): 1. Hold down CONTROL and SHIFT and then tap ESC. Select the Windows Task Manager. 2. Click the Processes tab. This tab displays a list of all background tasks running on your system. 3. Click the User Name column heading. This sorts all the processes together by user name. 4. Select an item with a user name, but DO NOT select one from the SYSTEM, LOCAL SERVICE, or NETWORK SERVICE groups. Also, DO NOT select the explorer.exe or taskmgr.exe items. 5. Click END PROCESS. You may receive a warning message, if so click YES. The selected item disappears from the list. 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until only explorer.exe and taskmgr.exe remain in the user name group.

EA Announces Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath Expansion

Kane is back! Part two!

It was about time for Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars to receive a sequel and Kane's Wrath will be that one. The game returns to the Tiberium universe with a brand new single player campaign that will iron out some of the loose ends in the original game.The well known Mark Verdu, VP and Executive Producer at EA Los Angeles has stated that: "The reaction to Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars has been tremendous. Fans and critics alike appreciated the combination of fast, fluid, and fun RTS game play with a deep story and the classic full-motion video sequences that are a hallmark of the Command & Conquer series" and "I'm excited that we're able to return to the Tiberium universe with Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath. This expansion has an impressive new single player campaign, a new global strategic layer that adds depth to the familiar Command & Conquer style gameplay, and several fun, all-new toys that range from versatile combat soldiers to giant armoured walkers"This new single player will allow the players to experience a complete new layer of strategic gameplay with the possibility to establish bases, build customized armies and attack their enemies on a global scale - and then dive into the frenzied tactical combat where their skills as a commander will make the difference in battle. The game also introduces six new sub-factions and a wealth of new units, structures and powers to the armies of the Global Defence Initiative, the Brotherhood of Nod and the enigmatic alien Scrin.One of the most interesting characteristics to be found in the sequel is for the owners of Xbox 360. They will be pleased to find a new radial interface that will permit a much easier control because we know what a hassle is to play strategy games of consoles. The end of the year will prove to be one of the most exciting ones so far as great titles are on their way and the Kane's Wrath sequel will most certainly be an instant hit.
