||
| − | {{Q|We have reached the end. The final piece to my puzzle is within your grasp. Two GDI bases rest on ground I have chosen to be the cradle of my Temple. Remove them in any way you can.|Kane}} |
||
| − | With GDI's [[ion cannon]] firing codes now in the hands of Nod along with [[Botswana]], [[Kane]] deemed it the perfect time to push [[GDI]] out of [[Africa]] for good. As a symbol of Nod's firm grip over the continent, Kane planned to build a [[Temple of Nod (Tiberian Dawn)|Temple of Nod]] at [[Cape Town]], [[South Africa]] - the location of [[GDI]]'s last stronghold. [[Kane]] left the task to the [[Nod Commander (Tiberian Dawn)|Nod Commander]] while he prepared the pieces to hack into the GDI's [[ion cannon]] defence matrix. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Events== |
||
| − | [[Nod]] forces set up a base in the vicinity of the last two remaining [[GDI]] bases in [[South Africa]]. Having done so they began to mine the region's [[Tiberium]] resources until they could construct their new [[Temple of Nod (Tiberian Dawn)|Temple of Nod]] and accumulate sufficient forces to destroy both [[GDI]] bases to secure the area and finish off the [[GDI]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | There were however 6 [[GDI]] bases in the vicinity of [[Cape Town]]. As the [[Nod Commander (Tiberian Dawn)|Hero of Egypt]] fought to destroy the 2 bases adjacent to the location of Nod's new temple, other [[Nod]] forces under different commanders fought to destroy the other 4 bases in two other battles which are less famous. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Aftermath== |
||
| − | {{Q|The world... Where to strike? Where will the world most keenly feel the blade of GDI treachery? You have done much to aid the Brotherhood towards this final victory. The choice - my friend - is yours...|Kane}} |
||
| − | [[File:Templenod.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Nod completes its new temple in [[South Africa]].]] |
||
| − | GDI had lost their last foothold on Africa and Nod cemented their control over the whole continent. Nod would then hack into GDI's ion cannon network by bypassing its defence matrix using their stolen security codes, and the [[Nod Commander (TWI)|hero of Egypt]] was given the opportunity by Kane decide whether to fire the orbital weapon onto one of four [[GDI]] country monuments - the [[White House]] (Washington DC), the Eiffel Tower (Paris), the Brandenburg Gate (Berlin) or the Houses of Parliament (London). |
||
| − | |||
| − | This blow humiliated the [[GDI]] and created public concerns as to the safety of [[GDI]]'s orbital weaponry, consequently preventing its expansion into an unstoppable force. At the same time public discontent weakened the [[GDI]] and prevented them from being able to destroy all the [[Nod]] remnants around the world. |
||
| − | While [[Kane]]'s apparent death splintered [[Nod]] they would maintain their control over much of [[Africa]] throughout the period between the [[First Tiberium War]] and the [[Second Tiberium War]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[South Africa]] however was definitely reconquered by the [[GDI]] at some point between at latest the [[Second Tiberium War|Second]] and [[Third Tiberium War|Third]] as it became part of a [[Blue Zone]] and the [[Temple of Nod (Tiberian Dawn)|Temple of Nod]] there was presumably destroyed in the process. |
