Defensive Tower is a neutral structure that can be captured like any other structures. Upon being captured, it automatically attacks any enemy units in range. In Tiberium Essence, it has had three forms as of version 1.6; the original tower and the new variant introduced in version 1.5 attacked ground units with a cannon firing in bursts. The newest version, which debuted in 1.6, uses a missile launcher for attacking ground and air targets with high accuracy and damage.
Tiberium Essence[]
When the GDI closed down 60% of its military bases (most of them in the Yellow Zones), these defensive towers had since remained inoperable unless captured by an engineer. However, there are some of these structures operating within the GDI-held blue zones.
Trivia[]
- Despite having three different models over the course of the mod, the cameo picture has remained the same.
- The 1.6 version's armament and visual appearance is similar to the Advanced Guard Tower from Tiberian Dawn.
