Command and Conquer 3 Guide to Support Powers (Work in Progress)

What's up guys, I hope you like Command and Conquer 3 Kane's Wrath, because I'll be working on a list of all of the support powers for each faction! This blog will provide detailed information of the cost, uses, and requirements for every support power found in the game. I will start with nod.


Decoy Army-
Cost: $500
Requirements: Operations Center
Recharge: Fast
Effect/Notes- This support power creates fake units that look exactly like the regular one, except that they are much easier to kill and do no real damage. Useful for drawing your opponent's fire when there is lots of heat on your offensive force. Note that the fake units can be distinguished from real ones when there are stealth-detecting units or structures around.

Mine Drop-
Cost: $1500 
Requirements: Operations Center 
Recharge: Medium 
Effect/Notes- Mine drop is a useful support power that calls in a fast nod covert aircraft to drop a large field of stealthed mines at the target area. This can be used on the retreat by placing it at your enemies chokepoint, where they are likely to pursue and take heavy losses in return. On defense, it can be handy for causing significant damage to marauding ground forces in key chokepoints. This support power is, however, expensive for it's place on the tech tree, and as such must be used in moderation. Stealth-detecting units can destroy the mines quite easily. This power cannot be used in shroud.

Radar Jamming Missile-
Cost: 750(Tiberium Wars), 300(Kane's Wrath)
Requirements: Operations Center
Recharge: Fast
Effect/Notes- Invaluable in setting up ambushes, this scrambler missile shuts down all enemy radars for a short amount of time. This is important, because your opponent will not be able to see you coming on his mini-map, even if he has scouts in the field. This way, you can use Stealth Tanks or other fast units to stage quick assaults on their base. Even better, if your opponent has multiple bases and you attack one, he will be panicking, desperately trying to find the base that is under attack. A very good support power for the money spent.
