Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game)	comment	The first game in the greater Command & Conquer series, and the originator of one of its two storylines, Tiberian Dawn was released in 1995 by Westwood Studios and originally known simply as Command & Conquer, before later being given its subtitle. Set 20 Minutes into the Future, it is a Real-Time Strategy game with a smattering of sci-fi elements such as alien crystals, stealth technology, and orbital lasers. A terrorist organization operating from various Third World nations known as the Brotherhood of Nod harnesses the power of Tiberium to challenge the rest of the world on equal footing, under the leadership of the charismatic and enigmatic Kane. The UN-backed Global Defense Initiative, a military coalition dedicated to restoring order and containing the spread of Tiberium, manages to hold the line and defeat Nod, killing Kane in the process. The game was followed by a plot-free expansion pack, The Covert Operations, a multiplayer-only sequel named Sole Survivor, and Renegade, an FPS set during the final days of the conflict from this game that boasts an active modding community and a small but dedicated fanbase.In late 2018, Electronic Arts, current owner of the C&C franchise, announced they were working with Petrogylph Games, a studio formed by Westwood Studios veterans, to remaster Tiberian Dawn, alongside a remaster of Red Alert. Both games were released as the Command & Conquer Remastered Collection on June 5, 2020, nearly 25 years after the release of Tiberian Dawn.EA declared the game freeware in 2007, and can be downloaded freely from CNCNet, whose distribution comes patched with support for modern PCs and access to their own fan servers. Failing that, there's also OpenRA, an open-source Fan Remake of this game, Red Alert, and Dune 2000 that rebalances and modernises the game, adding in features from later Command & Conquer games.Shortly before the release of the Remastered Collection, EA released the source code for this game and Red Alert under GPL 3.0.Please note that this page is for tropes that feature in this game and its expansion only. Please add tropes relating to other games as well on the main Tiberian series page.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_10c393f5	comment	Video Game Flamethrowers Suck: While individual flamethrower infantry can be useful, they do not work well in groups. Their attack is a small short-range attack, which can hit friendly targets within the same group of five infantry simply by being on the back ranks.

Do so, and the cutscene will show Kane embracing the Ion Cannon strike and stretching his arms out in a rather familiar pose. However, it's actually subverted in a sense that Kane is actually the villain of the story.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77	comment	Multiple Endings: In the GDI ending, the Brotherhood is cornered at Sarajevo and broken apart, with its leader "killed." Notably, Kane can be killed in two ways. If you destroy the Temple of Nod with the Ion Cannon when it is the last enemy building on the map, Kane will embrace the light from the cannon strike as it engulfs him. If you destroy the Temple conventionally, Kane will be crushed by falling debris. The faceplate and burned skin in the sequel reveal that the Ion Cannon ending is the canon one. This was confirmed in the remaster through an achievement awarded for finishing off the temple with an Ion Cannon strike. In the Nod ending, Nod hijacks the GDI Ion Cannon, and you get to destroy either the White House in Washington D.C., the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Houses Of Parliament in London, or the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, discrediting the Global Defense Initiative and General Sheppard.

At first in the GDI campaign you start off fighting only their conventional, light guerrilla forces, and then suddenly they bust out the Recon Bikes, Obelisks of Light, Flame Tanks and the Stealth Tanks. Subverted, however, when GDI eventually rolls out the Orcas, the Mammoth Tanks and the Ion Cannon.

In gameplay terms, it will one shot certain buildings, such as power plants, and will heavily damage most others. Finishing the Temple of Nod off with it in the final mission grants a unique cutscene where Kane embraces the light from it, as opposed to being crushed by debris if destroyed conventionally. GDI denies they're developing it early in the game, but go public with it if the player uses it to destroy the Temple.

The Medium Tank and Light Tank are not very fancy, especially compared to the Mammoth and Stealth Tanks respectively, but they're cheaper, available sooner, and will have no issues crushing your opponent in large enough numbers. In the early game, there's the humble Minigunner. They're cheap, and enough of them will crush their opponents, until your enemy busts out the tanks to crush the minigunners.

The horrors of a tiberium-contaminated world would eventually be explored further in the sequels, Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun and Command & Conquer: Tiberium Wars.

Seth, it is worth noting, starts seeming wary of you (noting that "you are rapidly becoming Kane's favorite") as the campaign progresses and continues sending you on difficult missions with faulty intelligence. He eventually tries to send you on an outright Suicide Mission against the Pentagon (all the way across the ocean from the African theater where you're fighting). Then Kane introduces himself by executing Seth mid-sentence, pushing his corpse out of the chair, and promoting you. Disloyalty is even worse than incompetence.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9	type	Early-Installment Weirdness
Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: This is the only game in the series without a skirmish mode; even if the computer was added to a game it did not have a base. A skirmish mode was added in the Remastered Collection. This game had a lot of gameplay mechanics that were either ditched or were not present in later installments, such as being only able to build right next to another building and not differentiating between defensive buildings (which in later games can be built farther away but do not generate "build" areas or allow building of new things) and normal/production ones. This specifically led to the "Sand bag wall" exploit. Speaking of sand bags, this is the only game where sand bags and chain-link fences pose an obstacle to vehicles whereas in all following titles, vehicles could simply flatten them by driving over them. Engineers cannot be used to instantly repair friendly buildings in this game, relegated to only capturing enemy ones. For that matter, this is the only game in the entire franchise where Engineers would use the generic infantry voice lines. Even Red Alert would give Engineers their own unique voice lines, well before they ended up doing the same for every unit period by Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge. Also, this is the only game where Engineers apparently have the ability to steal enemy Chinook Transport helicopters by entering them. note And this is the only vehicle that the Engineer can actually steal out in the open; aside from stealing a Harvester if it is "hooked-up" to a captured Refinery. This ability is revisited and later given to the Mutant Hijackers in Tiberian Sun and the GLA Hijackers in Generals. Nod uses an Airstrip to 'produce' vehicles by flying in completed units instead of building them directly on the field with a weapons factory. From the first Red Alert onwards, all factions, even Nod in later games, use an evolution of the GDI weapons factory, the War Factory, to construct vehicles at field bases, while airfields and anything similar in nature only serve to produce aircraft and occasionally provide radar. In terms of the story, this is the only game where Nod isn't overtly religious, although it's implicitly there from the start going by in-game cutscenes (particularly the Biblical names of Kane, Seth, and the Brotherhood of Nod itself) and the presence of the Temple of Nod as the final stop in Nod's structure tech tree. Nod's goal seems to be simply to become a world super power. There's no hint of Kane having further goals he's working towards through Nod. He's simply trying to get one over GDI. On a related note, Kane seems to be more of a Generic Doomsday Villain whose goals (apparently) involve destroying random world monuments, wiping out civilian villages, experimenting with tiberium on prisoners, and killing thousands of innocent people...just because. However, later games (like Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars) would see Kane more fleshed-out as an Anti-Villain character with somewhat more reasonable motives but still destructive actions. Nod uses regular military units, with a heavy implication that their early-game tech is them scrambling to acquire whatever they can get their hands on that will work. Their light tank is an M2 Bradley, an infantry fighting vehicle, refitted with a tank cannon, and their method of constructing vehicles is by building an airstrip to have them delivered via cargo plane. Their soldiers wear regular military BDU and use regular guns. They field Apache Longbow and Chinook helicopters. They have more fantastical units like the flamethrower and stealth tanks, but those tend to be higher-tier units that only show up in the endgame. In later games, Nod's arsenal will always be far more sci-fi looking, with Nod infantry even in Command & Conquer: Renegade (which is set near the end of the conflict from this game) being armored and masked up to look like the kind of guys Cobra would hire, while GDI would keep the more conventional-looking units (their obsession with Humongous Mecha in place of traditional armored fighting vehicles during Tiberian Sun notwithstanding). This would be the only era where Nod would use the same EVA as GDI (aside from the Firestorm incident, where Nod would have to hijack an EVA unit due to CABAL going rogue). Later games would have the Brotherhood's AI advisor take the form of a deep, masculine voice. The EVA is also missing a handful of lines from later games, perhaps most notably in that it refers to training infantry as "building" just like all other production, another thing which even Red Alert fixed - this one being so memetic that even the Remastered Collection didn't fix it. "Establishing battlefield control, standby" at the beginning of a mission would also not be implemented until Tiberian Sun. This is also the only game where you only get one shot with a Nuclear Missile and that's it. The Nuke is also more powerful than later versions, able to destroy a Construction Yard in one hit and annihilate a considerable portion of a base with no warning whatsoever. Later superweapons generally are unable to destroy the heaviest buildings on their own, players would receive a warning and a countdown timer when a superweapon is built or fired, and superweapons can be fired multiple times after another countdown. When the Commando destroys buildings, infantry still pop up like it was destroyed any other way, usually resulting in a cheap shot or two at said Commando, which ultimately makes them much less useful for their intended purpose of quickly taking out bases. Even Red Alert 1 would immediately fix this with Tanya's structure destruction having a much lower chance of leaving survivors - and on the minimal chance that someone did survive, Tanya would just shoot them before the flames cleared out because of her much quicker delay between shots.

So by the end, the technicians are all burnt to a crisp and the flame tank has suffered no damage whatsoever.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_6041e4f4	comment	The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: In the campaign, the AI can rebuild its destroyed buildings anywhere, whereas the player can only build next to existing structures. The AI harvester brings back about 20k credits compared to the player's 700 credits per full harvester. That way, the computer can replace one harvester that was lost if the other one (in later missions it usually has two) gets through. That makes cutting off its supply of resources a more difficult task. The player can only use Nod's nuclear strike once, but the AI has no such limitation. In Nod campaign missions, the GDI AI has much greater control over its airstrikes than you can ever hope to do: Bombers will track their target if you try moving it out of the way, and can outright move on to another target if they destroy the first one, and the next... In short, the AI can aim the bombers like actual units instead of an area-targeting superweapon.

Also, in stark contrast to its main rival of the time, Warcraft I and II, Faction Calculus is present, complete with a rare example of the good guys being the Powerhouse (GDI relies on heavy, conventional weapons platforms to steamroll the enemy in a straight-up fight) and the villains being the Subversive (Nod relies on light skirmishers and experimental weapons for hit-and-run tactics and taking out targets of opportunity before the enemy can react).

Harvesters in particular are so infamous for this behavior that they quickly reached memetic status in the fandom, to the point that EA made the announcement that the 2020 remaster wouldn't touch harvester pathfinding a part of their marketing pitch. AI pathfinding in general still had a long ways to go back then. Units told to move past an obstacle (like a wall or cliff) would first move in a straight line to the destination until they hit the obstacle, then edge along it all the way to their destination, which tended to take far longer than the direct route. They also didn't adapt their pathing on their own while chasing moving targets; if you didn't repeatedly click on the target, your units would move to where the target would've been before it changed course, then plot a new path. The AI can't even deal with sandbags in their own base, which really goes to show how effective the "wall trick" was in this game.

Since Nod's play style emphasizes subversiveness, those missions usually involve more careful thinking and timing compared to GDI's more straightforward missions. For example, Nod tends to have more non-construction missions that involve taking a small strike force and eliminating/capturing a target. And there are some difficult missions for Nod that involve micromanaging separate groups of troops (the 11th mission is a notorious example). And of course, you have GDI's annoying Gunboats and Airstrikes damaging/killing your units along the way.

These were eventually recreated for the PC version of the game and included in the unofficial patch 1.06, before the Remastered Collection included them officially, the PS1 missions as '97 Spec Ops, the N64 ones as '99 Spec Ops, and PATSUX as the "S3cr3t M1ss1on".

According to the anchorwoman's news report, doing so will result in her saying that the battle was fought over a long time and both GDI and Nod suffered heavy casualties. However, this is subverted if you do destroy the Temple of Nod with the ion cannon. The anchorwoman afterward reports that the final battle only lasted a few days and, while Nod still suffers heavy casualties, GDI and civilian losses are at "technically acceptable levels".

However, later games (like Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars) would see Kane more fleshed-out as an Anti-Villain character with somewhat more reasonable motives but still destructive actions.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_cbd5e41a	comment	Engineers cannot be used to instantly repair friendly buildings in this game, relegated to only capturing enemy ones. For that matter, this is the only game in the entire franchise where Engineers would use the generic infantry voice lines. Even Red Alert would give Engineers their own unique voice lines, well before they ended up doing the same for every unit period by Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge. Also, this is the only game where Engineers apparently have the ability to steal enemy Chinook Transport helicopters by entering them. note And this is the only vehicle that the Engineer can actually steal out in the open; aside from stealing a Harvester if it is "hooked-up" to a captured Refinery. This ability is revisited and later given to the Mutant Hijackers in Tiberian Sun and the GLA Hijackers in Generals.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_d0ea147f	type	A.I. Breaker
Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_d0ea147f	comment	A.I. Breaker: The AI can become crippled and unable to rebuild if it no longer has a Construction Yard. A really cheap strategy that was invented to exploit this weakness is to load an APC full of engineers and make a suicide run into the enemy's base with the sole intent of capturing and selling off said Construction Yard. Afterwards, capturing/destroying the Tiberium Refineries will pretty much reduce the mission to a leisurely cleanup job. The AI rebuilds a destroyed building in the place it originally occupied. This allows the player to prevent the computer from rebuilding merely by parking a single unit, even a lowly rifleman, where the building once was. Even the sole exception (where one final GDI mission has the AI construct an Obelisk of Light in a Tiberium patch that you're harvesting) can still be blocked by parking a unit in its intended location. The AI also can't rebuild a building if its units are standing where the building is supposed to be. Which means that if you destroy a building and park a tank on a nearby cliff and make sure it isn't attacking anything, the units that will emerge from the destroyed building will try to keep shooting at the tank, not move at all, and prevent the building from being rebuilt. Another cheap tactic is to use the "wall trick" which involves building sandbags all the way to the enemy's base and then closing it off with Concrete Walls. AI Harvesters won't be able to get by (even sandbags will block them) so they will quickly be starved of resources. This became so well known that it was intentionally left in for the remaster.

The real icing on the cake, though, is Dr. Mobius's grim press conference revealing the danger that tiberium poses to humanity: This scene can be especially jarring considering that Dr. Mobius was somewhat of a comic relief character up to this point, and he's briefly mentioned in the intro as being expected to refute claims that tiberium is dangerous.

Although considering how the report on BiaÅ‚ystok's supposed destruction by the GDI is in-character bullshiting from the Brotherhood of Nod, it is possible they were misrepresenting the size of the city and its demographics on purpose.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn (Video Game) / int_f0089082	comment	Early-Bird Cameo: In the final GDI campaign mission, General Sheppard informs you that Kane is surrounded by his own "crack militia". They're just a standard Nod army here like in every other mission, but in hindsight it's implied to be the Black Hand, an elite subfaction of Nod that plays a much bigger role in the storylines of Tiberian Sun, Renegade, Tiberium Wars and Kane's Wrath, the latter wherein they became a playable subfaction with unique units and abilities. A rather creepy cutscene shows a military helicopter flying over and observing a Tiberium-infested valley. If you look closely, you can see what appear to be spaghetti-like weeds growing from holes in the ground. These are likely the Veinholes and veins that would later appear in Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun. The veins in particular would serve as a damaging obstacle for vehicles/buildings and as a resource for Nod's Chemical Missile superweapon. Speaking of Tiberian Sun, an early trailer would be featured in later releases of Tiberian Dawn that shows a rather powerful prototype of a GDI power suit being tested on a firing range. In hindsight, this is a precursor to GDI's Wolverine unit (though the final unit in Tiberian Sun would only be armed with basic machine guns, unlike the powerful lasers shown in the trailer).
