"Simo" Havers? As in reference to Simo Hayha, the "White Death" who terrorized the Soviets during the Winter War? A very good little tidbit for a military buff like me.

Now, onto review.

Oh,sweet mother Mary, this fic is GORGEOUS! The action is well-written, the characters have more dimension, and you even stuck in old "Havoc" Parker, just to add a little more military is portrayed realistically, unlike that OTHER author; who shall remain nameless. The contrast between Nod and GDI is getting sharper by the chapter, and I ESPECIALLY appreciate the way you have so far contrasted the mobility-firepower emphasis with traditional mechanized warfare tactics of GDI.

Question: Do you read much John Ringo or Tom Clancy? John Ringo is an SF author whose main schtick is military fiction, most specifically ground combat and tactical analysis. Judging by the style of this fic, you've either already read some of his stuff, or you just plain need to sign a contract with Baen Books and get published already!

This is nothing short of amazing.
You show a really understanding regarding how the military works, and how tactics and strategy entangle int oeach other. This is a true favourite of mine, and I'm eagerly waiting for more releases.

Keep the great work. :)

Simply put you sir have written this as a master piece.

This is by far THE best C&C fanfiction I have ever read. I have always been a loyal subject of the Global Defense Initative, I believe the Brotherhood of NOD must be destroyed. Tiberium is a poison that is killing our world. Kane and all those who follow him MUST BE STOPPED!

This has been by far the best ride I've been on in a while. Your use of characterization (sp?) is magnificent, the scences gritty and most definetly what I would expect from a global war with hightech everywhere. I haven't read anything this good in a while. I like how you have channeled your inner Abnett (who is imo the best damn author around these days). I look forward to seeing more.

"I've seen bigger," Havoc replied, nonchalant...
O.O
WHERE?

'Your Imminence'?
is that your sunconscious telling you things again or is that on purpose
LOL
if it were on purpose, it would mean the cheesiness has reached glorious new levels. it wouldn't be even a Command & Conquer game anymore, it would be... a Bond film

Really great writing and the way you describe NOD and how it functions is fascinating. I cannot wait to see what you do with the Scrin.

Nice story! also when does the scren make an apprence

This is amazingly well-written. I've always wanted a good C&C fic, and this looks to be one. While I myself am not a fan of Tiberium Wars (the atmosphere became much less apocalypse-y, and the aliens that I had been looking forward to turned out to be a bunch of flying razor blades) I look forward to reading this.
Peace through power! All hail Kane!

Peptuck,

Thank you for your continued work on this Fanfic novel. I've enjoyed it immensely.

Sincerely,

SiFiChronicler

I have to admit, I've always been a GDI fan, but it wasn't until your chapter "Crystalline" and its description of Tiberium poisoning that I came to the conclusion that Nod should be stopped at all costs. The mere fact that they want to spread such a dangerous substance, no matter how many people it kills...
Also, a most impressive job on the world-building, strategy and tactics. That's hard to do in a fan-made novelization of a video game.

Really, really great writing. I absolutely love your story...

Any idea when the next chapter will be out? Or have you given up on this one?

Awesome chapter. I really like the nod characters. I think you got them down really well. specifically how they are now pretty much a militant religious organization.

cool story so far. Out of curiosity does this novel include anything from Kane's wrath expansion, story wise?
