Throwback Thursday for 19th May

Recommended Posts

Throwback Thursday this week returns to the "Iconic Units" series focusing on the Obelisk of Light from Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars in 2007. Although it's not exactly a unit in the game. The Obelisk has been a main stay of Nod's defensive arsenal since first Tiberium War. It's appearance has changed slightly over the years but it's fire-power has not. All approaching ground based enemies fear that charging up sound as it prepares to fire. In Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars the Obelisk gained the ability to detect stealth units and link up with Beam Cannons for an overcharged firing mode.

My fav memory, and one I've spoken about before, is when it magically appears in the latter mission is the original C&C defying the established in-game mechanics... I can't remember the mission name though.
