Laser fencing was a type of defensive technology used by the Brotherhood of Nod during the Second Nod Reunification War and the Third Tiberium War.
Background
Like previous iterations of the laser fence, it used a series of laser-projecting pylons to form a defensive barrier. Unlike previous versions, however, this version was designed to protect individual structures, and was deployed in the form of a support power rather than constructed separately. It also did not consume power.
In-game
When used, the power deploys a laser fence around the selected Nod structure. Structures protected by laser fencing cannot be captured by engineers or demolished by GDI and Nod commandos, though they also cannot be repaired by friendly engineers. Protected structures take halved damage from all types of weapons.
The laser fence will be destroyed if its parent structure's health drops below 33%. The power cannot be used on Nod power plants and support structures other than the Temple of Nod, and cannot be used on the decoy Temple of Nod. It also cannot be used on the structures of other factions.
