Link to The Page in Directive255's Multipurpose Website About This Campaign

This campaign is inspired by C&C: Tiberian Dawn, GTA San Andreas and WarCraft: Orcs and Humans.
Campaign created (little progress). Also, detailed description will be written later.

Storyline




This campaign is set after the events of C&C: Reloaded (by FS-21) and GTA: San Andreas but before the events of UltraCraft 1: Icydaeron and UltraCraft 1: Shadowmoon. Additionally, the events of the campaign occurred concurrently with the events of a "modified" C&C: Tiberian Dawn. The story is told in past tense.

The Grove Street Families started a conquest on the Earth, after purging the Ballas in the State of San Andreas. The shadowy gangsters of the Ballas gang have fled to Africa, which was administrated by their ally and "master", the Brotherhood of Nod at that time. After escaping from North America, the Ballas and the Brotherhood of Nod were planning about their plans, such as filling the Multiverse with darkness and summoning Kane back to this world. The shadowy members of the Ballas were also granted shadowy abilities and taught urban warfare tactics and science facts by the members of Brotherhood of Nod.

In 1994 AD, The Grove Street Families States of America was established. That same year, the Ballas had launched a invasion on the GSFSA, with the support of the Brotherhood of Nod. The Brotherhood of Nod was also the mastermind of this invasion.

Assist the Grove Street Families members to defend its turf from the shadowy minions of the Shadowy Legion, or command the shadowy minions of the Ballas and the Brotherhood of Nod to demolish the GSF and GDI and conquer the whole Earth, or be a GDI commander to defend the Earth from both GSF and the Shadowy Legion.

Factions



Grove Street Families


198768-albums7209-picture84450.jpg


De Facto Leader(s): Sean "Sweet" Johnson.
Secondary Leader(s): Carl "CJ" Johnson, Lieutenant Tarnell.
Ideology/Type: Gangsterism and Druidism.

History: The successor of the ancient and legendary Kaldorei Grove Families, originally all members of the KGF were killed by the Nazis during World War II.

In 1946 AD, Albert Einstein used his Chronosphere device to travel back in time and erased Adolf Hitler, thus preventing the creation of Nazi Germany and indirectly saved the members of the Kaldorei Grove Families. World War II was fought again, that time against a strengthened Soviet Union.

The surviving members fled to the West Coast of USA and founded the Grove Street Families at Compton (later known as Ganton). During the Psychic Dominator Disaster, the GSF members have failed to defend Los Angeles. Later, the State of California and State of Nevada merged into the State of San Andreas and Los Angeles, San Francisco and Las Vegas were rebuilt as Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas, respectively.

This gang went on a decline in 1987 AD, after CJ leaved for Liberty City. By the beginning of 1992 AD, this gang's territories only consist of Ganton. Ryder and Big Smoke betrayed the gang, Sweet was put on jail, and CJ was forced in exile.

Several months later (still the same year), the Grove Street Families has reformed. That same year, Big Smoke's Crack Palace was destroyed by CJ and Frank Tenpenny died after a car chase. The GSF's influence and power largely increased in the blink of an eye, and by 1993 AD this gang was controlling almost the whole State of San Andreas and other states around, forming the Grove Street Families State of America.

Sometime in that same year, the GSF readopted druidism while still adopt gangsterism at the same time and the GSF moved its HQ into the Prickle Pine Safehouse. The GSF improved and used the Doherty Garage as the primary war vehicle production facility.

Arsenal: The GSF relies on mobility, lighter units and lighter defensive structures. Since GSF readopted druidism, the GSF also relies on nature spells during a battle.



The Shadowy Legion

198768-albums7209-picture84454.jpg
198768-albums7209-picture84456.jpg


De Facto Leader(s): Kane the Shadowy Messiah.
Secondary Leader(s): Seth (formerly), Ryder (formerly), Big Smoke (formerly), Scorpius, Yuri the Psychic Madman.
Ideology/Type: Religion, Quasi-state, Gangsterism, Necromancy, Demonology and Shadowmancy.

History: The Shadowy Legion was formed before 3600 BC. Originally, it consisted of Brotherhood of Nod, the Ballas and the Shadow Council. The Shadowy Legion was considered to be the most evil faction (surpassing even the Illidari Empire) during and after its formation but BEFORE Laera Bloodfire's rise to power.

After the Great Sundering, the original Multiverse was split into multiple universes and Kane was also split and the Brotherhood of Nod also disappeared unexpectedly, leaving the Ballas alone.

The Ballas gangsters used to regularly communicate with Kane and other important Nod personnel via telepathic means. The Ballas gangsters worked hard in order to re-merge the split universes, re-bring the Brotherhood of Nod to their dimension and summon their master Kane.

It was the Ballas and the Brotherhood of Nod who masterminded events such as the War of the Ancients, World War I, the original World War II, the erasure of Adolf Hitler, First Red War, Second Red War, Psychic Dominator Disaster, New World Order, etc. Under the orders of Nod personnel, they also blessed and cursed Yuri the Psychic Madman and brought Tiberium to the planet of Earth.

The shadowy minions of the Shadowy Legion also used their unholy powers to corrupt various persons, such as Tichondrius, Big Smoke, Lance "Ryder" Wilson and Frank Tenpenny.

After Yuri was imprisoned at the Psychic Isolation Chamber, the universes are re-merged into the present UltraCraft Multiverse. Yuri did not lose his powers, instead his psychic powers was enchanted but he was under direct control of Kane.

At some point, the Ballas gangsters had successfully managed to purge GSF from the State of San Andreas. Later, GSF was reformed and instead the Ballas was forced into exile (fled to Africa).

The Ballas gangsters have finally re-brought the Brotherhood of Nod to this world (in 1973 AD, New World Order, event of C&C: Reloaded) and successfully summoned their master -- Kane (in 1993 AD).

The Shadowy Legion has rose to power after Kane was summoned and its subfactions, Brotherhood of Nod, Ballas and PsiCorps were planning to conquer the whole Multiverse.........

Arsenal: The Shadowy Legion relies on light, medium and heavy units. In addition, the Shadowy Legion also relies on stealth, hit-and-run tactics (such as drive-by) and chaotic, shadowy and unholy magics. Some Fel Orcs are reported to be spotted among the ranks of the Shadowy Legion.



Global Defense Initiative


198768-albums7209-picture84452.jpg


De Facto Leader(s): Mark Jamison Sheppard
Secondary Leader(s): General James Solomon
Ideology/Type: Globalism, Capitalism, United Nation Organization

History: The United Nations Global Defense Initiative (UNGDI), or Global Defense Initiative (GDI), is the global government of Earth. It was founded in accordance with the United Nations Global Defense Act (UNGDA), on the date of October 12, 1995, as a formalized military branch of the United Nations and evolved into a supra-national state in its own right. GDI's initial goal was to preserve world order by combating global terrorism and cults, epitomized by its nemesis the Shadowy Legion, but eventually outgrew its original mandate to become a world government.

Arsenal: Relies on heavy tanks and mechs, advanced Science technology but doesn't rely on magics at all.

Yes, but it will be some sort of fantasy/modern hybrid. BTW this is merged storyline. Except C&C and WarCraft story elements in this campaign. Especially the Shadowy Legion.

The unknown faction!?!? Wtf is that?!?
P.S. will it be mostly RPG or Strategy? Will it include custom models?

1. Sorry about that, I haven't decided the unknown faction. (It could be the Koopa Kingdom, Early Ultrakov Union, etc.)
2. Usually the maps in this campaign are RTS-style.
3. Of course it will include custom models. Without custom models, this campaign would be impossible.
