The '''Catalyst Missile''' is a rare [[Nod]] support power in ''[[Command & Conquer: Rivals]]''.
 
 
== Background ==
 
Medium damage missile. If it hits [[Tiberium Cloud|Tiberium Gas]], its damage is increased and it also damages '''all''' adjacent tiles.
 
 
== Game power ==
 
Catalyst Missile is a high damage projectile that can hit any visible hex on the battlefield and deals a splash damage to the units on that hex. The damage is enough to kill any infantry and aircraft unit and all but most sturdy vehicles. Since there is a warning about the incoming missile, all but the slowest units can escape the missile. This makes the Catalyst Missile very useful at breaking up fortress units, like [[MG Squad]], [[M.L.R.S. (Rivals)|M.L.R.S.]] or [[Juggernaut (Rivals)|Juggernauts]].
 
 
It is also effective at denying hexes. If the nuclear missile is about to fire and the opponent has to cross a specific hex to get on the pad, a timely Catalyst Missile on that hex can buy precious seconds.
 
 
The Catalyst Missile alone is situational, but when combined with [[Tiberium]], it can give off an impressive [[Tiberium Explosion|explosion]] spanning multiple hexes.
 
 
Hitting Tiberium patch will blast the surrounding hexes, but will not trigger a chain reaction on nearby Tiberium fields.
 
 
== Changelog ==
 
 
* [[Rivals balance update 2019-07-31|Balance update 2019-07-31]]: Cost decreased to 80 from 90
