From what I've seen in Tiberian Sun, Anton Slavik was a soldier more than anything. He didn't commit terrorist acts against civilians, but mostly relied on surgical strikes performed by task forces to make the attack of the main forces easier. That makes him my favourite character in the Tiberium universe as a whole.
@@Nuuk_Nuke_Nook Well, I don't remember any in either GDI or Nod campaign, and especially not during the Firestorm crisis. The thing against the Forgotten with stolen GDI units was a low blow, that's true. But you can't name one operation where Slavik ordered killing civilians.
Despite losing the first 2 Tiberium wars, Nod seemed to grow stronger after each defeat instead of weaker. In the first game nod was nothing more than a very large paramilitary terrorist organisation with no real hope of defeating GDI out in the open. In the 2nd war, Nod technology went full out insane with their developments in all fields but most notably Artificial intelligence. It was also very clear that GDI had to keep the various NOD groups against each other as they represented a very severe threat. By the third? Nod Ruled over 60% of the world's populations and succeeded in their ultimate goal. It is a massive shame that Command and Conquer died as a franchise soon after because I would have loved if the story progressed and went to a crazy all or nothing war among the stars between the 3 known factions. I think a lot of what could have been but at least I get to play as the Brotherhood of NOD in Stellaris.
Writers had to keep the story going IMO. No logical explanation for their continued growth and GDI somehow being completely unaware every single time... but it’s a game, and they need an “other side” to fight that feels like a credible threat.
@@JDothan The prevalence of NOD is likely as a response to the increase of both GDI power and Tiberium takeover. NOD always recruited from the more 3rd and 2nd world nations and with the apocalyptic spread of Tiberium their influence spread to even first world countries for recruitment. Its no accident that GDI controlled the more well off blue zones while NOD secured the impoverished yellow zones.
nod has no ethical boundary for research, thats why they could harness AI, tiberium base weapon, cyborg, or even using flamethrower in battlefield is illegal as far as i know...
@@JDothan NOD has outpaced GDI in stealth tech in every war with each war showing clear improvements in this tech over the last. It makes sense to me that, despite each loss, GDI misses some critical lab still containing their research data, along with the Black Hand spreading Kane's word to the impoverished and forgotten masses in the Yellow Zones. GDI's presence is near zero in those zones. Of course the majority of the world they abandoned would resent that, especially when the Brotherhood offers shelter, food, and other vital essentials in those zones in exchange for covert smuggling of key information, supplies, and tech. Essentially: NOD has a lot of backers, both in corrupt rich elite and the impoverished people in 2nd and 3rd world nations struggling to get by while GDI focuses strictly on tiberium containment.

If a more proper sequel to C&C3 had been made, and CABAL was reintroduced as a playable faction, I think it would've been cool if Slavik returned as a cyborg commander under CABAL.
@@kalivexllith4437 No, it would not. The story was too cheap and to dumb for C&C. A series that, at his peak, had a T-Rex as playable character and a UFO as a standard unit.

Definitely my favorite sub faction, both lore wise and I'm terms of the absolute flaming blue Hell you unleash on your opponents. Two things, first Purifier may be technologically inferior but is much more useful without having to eat their comrades, two blessing the Purifiers? Have we found the long lost predecessor of the Adeptus Mechanicus?
The amount of skirmishes I've won by slipping 2 flame tanks into a base and just leaving them in an aggressive stance to do their thing is embarrassing, long live the black hand
You gotta wonder how many times Kane has to come back from the dead before these Nod leaders will learn to stop denouncing him after he has supposedly died. 😂
Can we take a minute to admit how genius the Black Disciple program really is? Every unit is able to annihilate entrenched infantry while still maintaining their original purpose. If the black hand would still utilities cheap militant squads this would be broken. So it is ... still broken. You just win the entrenchment combat.
I agree but too bad c&c4 ruined that cool unit design streak but to be fair c&c4 was an after thought as the came wasn't originally meant to be a c&c game

As a nod follower who loves the black hand nothing will beat the sight of purifiers walking through an enemy base bathing everything in purifying flame. 🔥❤
Shame we didn’t get a more honorable death from Slavik. He dies between the deaths of two games with little mention. Edit: Forgot to praise the video. Great work!
Loving these lore videos. I've been always interested to know where Yuri got his army and technology from in Yuri's revenge DLC of RA2. It'd be so cool if you could be a vid of the tech that Yuri poses in that game and how he ended up acquiring them. For example, the UFO flying thing ... WTF is that? and how did Yuri ended up owning and manufacturing them?
I have a few ideas for other areas of lore within the C&C universe I plan to cover in future videos. But I will be taking a short break from C&C with the next video.
Jethild you deserve a break man... these videos Sure is exhausting to make... It takes you 2 weeks to make a super hard worked videos berween 8-25 minutes while if i was you it would take me probably more than a month to make the reaper-17 video😂
Black hand infantry are literally supreme gotta building that needs clear "BREAK OUT THE FLAMEY BOI." Need to show GDI who has the best shock troops Black hand: *Laughs on particle beam and hallucinogenic grenades* Has faith in a man that literally cannot die even though he has been stabbed I think shot and vaporized by a ion cannon yet death has neither given him the time of day or a singular fuck
It makes a bit more sense if you consider Tiberian Dawn taking place from around 2019-2022, as supported by the guide to Renegade and Nod's intro in Tiberium Wars. This also could explain the spread of tiberium. The GLA anthrax acts a lot like tiberium, so they might be one in the same.
The very first song during the opening dialogue is called "Crimson City" but the one immediately right after it is called "Guilty Pleasure." Both are composed by Steve Jablonsky who composed the entire C&C 3 Soundtrack. "Guilty Pleasure" is the Nod victory theme that plays at the end of a winning match.
I’m not 100% on this but I think the black hand has access to Spectres, but they do not have stealth and neither do black hand commandos, and I’m not sure but can black hand build two commandos?
Your right about the black hand spectres and commandos being available but not having stealth. I should of been more specific about that. Your also correct that they can build 2 commandos, and that both commandos have full veterancy as well. That was something I missed when making the video.
it seems that if the enemy units are already attacking the won't change their target to their own allies until the the first thing they were firing at is dead. I remember when I was doing Kane's challenge (I have the xbox 360 version) I was GDI and the opponent was the Marked of Kane, but unfortunately I was not playing aggressive enough to things were already going wrong. The thing I remember most was that I had 6 or 7 mammoth tanks and 4 or 5 predator tanks all in the front lines ready to attack a FOB that the Marked made not far from my base when out of nowhere I see the shock wave of the rage generator and al of my tanks start shooting and killing each other and if that was not enough the redeemer and lot of nod units also starting to kill the tanks while they were killing themselves. Long story short I lost that game.
I always liked the black hand faction ever since renegade. My only wish was for them to keep the chameleon stealth troops. How cool would it be to have them in c&c3. Wonder what their design would of looked like?
That is partly true. The war started 2019. The war was not 1995 since triberium needed some time to spread. Bothe Alexa and the GDI general tell you. Also it is mentioned in renegade.
Yep! I've seen his videos. They're great. His video on Tiberium is my favorite of his. I feel honored to know that he's recommended me to his audience.
it's stupid that in CnC3 they were made religious fanatics. In tiberian sun it was just elite fighting force, that got the most advanced tech - and stealth devices in the first place! It would be much more logical them to have stealth capbilities and aircrafts in the third tiberium war.
@@Darqshadow That's not what I meant at all. After the Firestorm Crisis, there seems to have been two schools of thought that came about. The older more 'traditional' stealthy secretive 'Kill-them-before-they-know-what's-happening' seen in the Shadow Ops. Then Maricon's schism happened and now there's 'Purge-these-heretics-in-flame-like-we're-the-Imperium.'
@@Mobysimo I almost think this was Kane's plan or at least happy coincidence. His most fanatical warriors went from sneaky sneaks to hey diddle diddle down the middle Crusaders of Nod... right as Kane is attracting the Scrinn to earth; whom spying and subterfuge won't be as good against. He needs Purifiers.
Considering red right hand I think is an English shorthand for a antagonist who presents a serious threat. Did t know the term until peaky blinders season 2. You know the group that effectively beat Shelby and only survived cuz of duex ex Churchill
"Private Josef Grigorovich. Abandoning your assigned post. Drawing a weapon on a superior officer. Resisting justice. Sexual assault on a prisoner of war. Uniform Code of Brotherhood Justice, Section Two, Line Twenty-Seven: 'Any form of sexual assault of any kind by a member of the Brotherhood is considered a Class One Offense against the Messiah, punishable by summary execution.' Discipline _will_ be enforced."
If slavik had taken nod into the third Tiberium war the scrim would have never arrived as early as they did but damn would gdi be in a worse position without Kane’s megalomania handicapping nod
yeah, we know the reasoning behind the Nod group's name. They are the Black Hand of Serbia from early 20th century. I don't think the warcraft character is drawn from that group for inspiration.
I don’t believe The first war would have begun in 1995, I believe it happened closer to 2005, that would have given 10 years for Tiberium to propagate following the Asteroid hitting Italy.
The black hand and the confessors are terror troopers that wore huge evil capes. Also Kane’s wrath is bad because players can only play as cape wearing nod warriors instead of using the cool GDI or Scrin units.
Quite a migrant group, man, crossed the ocean just to set Australia their new home. I wonder how long did it take for them to dig the tunnels from eastern Europe to Australia.
i they used the nod tunnel transports about 12 weeks as they could tunnel at such a speed to allow an army to respond to any part of the world quickly and were not limited in the depth they could travel at which means they could be deep enough to both cross below the ocean and also not be detected by ground radar
meanwhile in crossover fanfiction halo ONI be like: why.. why we defeat by this puny terrorism and this day can even getting worse Black Hand & NOD Agent: *show all ONI inhuman act, warcrime, and blackmail through all media* KANE SEE ALL AND KANE LIFE!!! ONI Agent: *surprised pikachu* GDI InOps: first time just like the old say but with twist "On a good day, ONI might be able to tell that Tiberium is green"
and then Kane would return again, defeat the GDI pigs and ascend to his rightful place. nobody likes C&C4 gameplay, but i still consider its story canon! Kane wins, the end.

More I learn about Tiberium lore, more I get confused about how can we address C&C: Generals timeline in the whole C&C Universe.
I consider it taking place in a timeline where Tiberium never arrived on Earth. At least not in 1995. The GLA is that timeline's version of Nod.
Generals is completely separate from both Tiberium and Red Alert. Its basically 3 different eras.
It makes a bit more sense if you consider Tiberian Dawn taking place from around 2019-2022, as supported by the guide to Renegade and Nod's intro in Tiberium Wars. This also could explain the spread of tiberium. The GLA anthrax acts a lot like tiberium, so they might be one in the same.

The Black Hand seemed to break in two after the 2nd Tib War
It did and Slavik was killed over it. The Alliance with GDI against Cabal didn't go over well
@@Darqshadow That's not what I meant at all. After the Firestorm Crisis, there seems to have been two schools of thought that came about. The older more 'traditional' stealthy secretive 'Kill-them-before-they-know-what's-happening' seen in the Shadow Ops. Then Maricon's schism happened and now there's 'Purge-these-heretics-in-flame-like-we're-the-Imperium.'
@@essex3777 And Marcion's won in the end. Since the Black Hand are front line troops come Tib War 3
@@Mobysimo I almost think this was Kane's plan or at least happy coincidence. His most fanatical warriors went from sneaky sneaks to hey diddle diddle down the middle Crusaders of Nod... right as Kane is attracting the Scrinn to earth; whom spying and subterfuge won't be as good against. He needs Purifiers.
Who wins:
The Black Hand
VS
The Red Right Hand
Considering red right hand I think is an English shorthand for a antagonist who presents a serious threat. Did t know the term until peaky blinders season 2. You know the group that effectively beat Shelby and only survived cuz of duex ex Churchill
I like using infantry in Tib War and Kane's Wrath. I do not like going against Black Hand. Fire hurt.

If slavik had taken nod into the third Tiberium war the scrim would have never arrived as early as they did but damn would gdi be in a worse position without Kane’s megalomania handicapping nod
Are these options strictly for PC or console as well?
I like air-war thus I don't really appreciate the Black Hand of Kane's Wrath, but I really enjoyed Anton Slavik in Tiberian Sun and Firestorm.
*Screams In Flamers*
im pretty sure the first tib war officially started in 2019 and ended in 2022
Kane's privat army is called the black hand and the old horde's first warchief was Blackhand....
Coincidece?
Yeah it is. Total coincidence. Dont think too much into it.
yeah, we know the reasoning behind the Nod group's name. They are the Black Hand of Serbia from early 20th century. I don't think the warcraft character is drawn from that group for inspiration.
So a Nod version of IRGC?
Slavick
Wait wha? Dr Gero? A nod to DBZ, or are worlds colliding again?
I wonder if you a lore on Nod stealth technology, gdi tank arsenal
He just posted one on Stealth Technology.
@@RC-qv9in seen it, loved it :D
Just read the wiki
Black Hands Matter!
what mission? what purpose?!
During the sciencentalk cutscene... Is that John Cena?
I don’t believe The first war would have begun in 1995, I believe it happened closer to 2005, that would have given 10 years for Tiberium to propagate following the Asteroid hitting Italy.
Plot twist... there were "white hand" organization in Serbia at the same time as Black hand...
why does kane die in every game?
Why is their hand black, don't they know how wash their hands?
All this time...I coulda put units IN the redeemer? Shiiit lol
The black hand and the confessors are terror troopers that wore huge evil capes. Also Kane’s wrath is bad because players can only play as cape wearing nod warriors instead of using the cool GDI or Scrin units.
Mercy is a gift not wasted on any opposition, be they man or xeno.
Purge them in flames
Quite a migrant group, man, crossed the ocean just to set Australia their new home. I wonder how long did it take for them to dig the tunnels from eastern Europe to Australia.
i they used the nod tunnel transports about 12 weeks as they could tunnel at such a speed to allow an army to respond to any part of the world quickly and were not limited in the depth they could travel at which means they could be deep enough to both cross below the ocean and also not be detected by ground radar
NOD Stronk! Remove GDI!
Wait the black hand captured dr gero? Why weren't they having him making androids like 17 and 18?
meanwhile in crossover fanfiction halo ONI be like: why.. why we defeat by this puny terrorism and this day can even getting worse
Black Hand & NOD Agent: *show all ONI inhuman act, warcrime, and blackmail through all media* KANE SEE ALL AND KANE LIFE!!!
ONI Agent: *surprised pikachu*
GDI InOps: first time just like the old say but with twist "On a good day, ONI might be able to tell that Tiberium is green"
and then Kane would return again, defeat the GDI pigs and ascend to his rightful place. nobody likes C&C4 gameplay, but i still consider its story canon! Kane wins, the end.
Somebody give me their Debit/Credit card info because I want to buy C&C 3
