Scorch97

Often listen to either Fleetwood Mac, CCR, The Grateful Dead, The Eagles, or some specific game soundtracks. Lot of ambient music and such. In particular, The Eagles song 'Desperado' is one of the songs most often listened to. Video

Ho boy... This is going to be a bit of a tale... Gather 'round kids, Uncle Scorch has a story for you. Back in 2007 when I was tuned back into the C&C world (And finally got home internet), Renegade was my game of choice fro online play. Back then I went by the name 'havoc_73' due to my random play-style then stuck for a spell after I realized my semi-affinity for vehicular combat. The screen-name changed to 'havocEMD' when I joined a small clan on CnCSeries.com called 'Elite of Mass Destruction' led up by Gibo06 and stu08. When we reformatted and got our own forums, I changed my name to 'ScorchEMD' for reasons I don't recall. Joined up in APB around that time in late 2007/early 2008 trying to hunt up one of our guys that went AWOL. GankyFeet was his name I think... Anyway, our leader disappeared along with our webmaster and sadly, our clan soon died out shortly thereafter and we went our separate ways. Afterwards, changed my name to 'Scorch97' with the numbers holding no real significance or importance. After wandering in APB for a year or so, I joined up with Superior Firepower (-SF-) and the name changed again to '-SF-Scorch' until I left in early 2011. Came back in 2012 and donned the name Scorch97 once again and it's stuck since. The name comes from a character from the 2005 LucasArts game Star Wars: Republic Commando named officially RC-1262 or 'Scorch' as a nickname. Simply took it up cause he was my favorite character in that game. The numbers still hold no real significance though. :

I know. Just wanted to be sure lest I sounded a bit off considering my reputation as a gun enthusiast. :downs: As for the Chem Sprayer infantry... I'm not entirely sure but if I recall properly, they were using concentrated Tiberium gas. Main reason for this is because that sometimes Visceroids would mutate from some of those subjected to the Chem Sprayer. If you remember, Visceroids only occur when one is subjected to Tiberium gas or particles in a highly concentrated form. Another reason is that it in line with Nod's use of 'Terror Weapons' like flame-sprayers and inhumane chemical munitions.

Agreed. Flamethrowers were mainly a terror weapon used to not only clear out bunkers and pillboxes but to also frighten and demoralize enemy troops. One of the reasons you don't see them in any military (Aside from being ruled as 'inhumane') is that they're nowadays impractical and more of a liability to a squad than an asset. Back to topic. Minigunner Infantry For GDI, I'd think either the StG. 77 (Steyr AUG), L85A2, L86A1 LSW or the H&K G36 family would be applicable candidates for mainline arms since, all things considered, the First Tiberium War was fought primarily in Central Europe. This would mean to me that NATO would initially step in with Britain, Germany, Austria, Belgium, Etc. being at the head of the early days of the campaign before being resolved into GDI as a military force. For Nod, I'd suggest early iterations of the Kalashnikov line like the AK-47, AKM, AK-74, and AK-74U, RPD, and the PKM. To me, these would be more commonplace weapons considering that many countries in the former USSR were either taken over by or were sympathizers of Nod. Now, I'm not buckling on this and giving Nod exclusively Soviet Arms but the only way I can logically see Nod acquiring thousands to tens of thousands of advanced small arms would be to raid military bases and the like. That considered, did happen in the game IIRC but later on in the Nod Campaign. For Commando This'd be a little easier for me to come up with. For the Commandos, I could see them being outfitted with a PSG-1 or a modded StG. 58 for sniping for GDI. CQB situations, I could see them using an MP5K or a Styer TMP. For Nod, I'm kinda leaning to the SVU or KVSK sniper rifles and either an OTs-23 'Drotik', OTs-33 'Pernach', or the Beretta 93R machine pistols. Yes, I know I didn't include scatterguns for the commandos because mainly, European countries focus on utilizing machine pistols or SMGs for CQC situations. Also, for posterity, the Calico M960 and M100 (.22 cal variation) were initially conceived for prison guards, law enforcement and military. These guns have an unorthodox helical clip design that feeds from the top down. In addition if I recall, the M960 was chambered to 9x19 Parabellum which is effectively useless anywhere past fifty (50) meters.

Quite possibly because this one missed the cut when the resources were integrated to the new Reborn Team since I think this was an independently made map. Notice that this video is at least two years old. In addition, if r315r4z0r was making this map, then he most likely still has the most recent iteration of the map, IF he is still working on it. I'll bring it up to Wally and see if he knows anything about it. I'd actually be curious to see more of this map myself to be honest. In addition, this wolf is a different user from Poklite_Wolf.

23. Taking it a day at a time.

I present to you, my Allied Command Ranger. It's a 2001 Ford Ranger XLT 2WD with a 3.0L V6 Engine commonly found in Ford Explorers of the time. She's pretty spartan on features but it's literally all I need of a vehicle for now. Can comfortably seat three and has a GPS mount. Sadly, I can't find a good WabCo E2-B1 train horn reproduction that I want but maybe it'll be something for the next one. Blatant Allied Propaganda

Glad to see you back around, Ice.

Wow, the Nod Tech Center looks pretty spot on with the old voxel file and I like the concept of deployable terminals. Nice showcase all 'round; Keep up the awesome work guys.

Okay, now you guys got me all excited on the Seige Chopper. Just one question though, will it be able to deploy when it is released or will it just be an areo-support craft until that mechanic is implemented?

Glad to hear of the progress, KEEP IT UP!!!

*Stares at the first few lines* Ooookay, so now I know what the fuck is going on, I'm impressed on how the IFV's are lookin'. Can't wait to take a few for a "friendly" spin. Regardless, glad to see you're still lurking around Chevy.

THIS BLOG IS HORRIBLE!!! But seriously, nice update blog OWA. Can't wait to see the flechete assembly and the Nighthawk when it's textured.

Epic Chrono Effect is EPIC!!! BTW the Baretta is looking super Sexy! Can't wait to use it!

EPIC Grizzly Tanks!!! Looks like they can just jump out and steamroll over some soviet troopers
