The Shredder Turret is Nod's basic anti-infantry defense structure. The structure's appearance has changed since version 1.5 as it was given a more sturdy look, it still has the Tiberium Particle Beams upgrade given to it in version 1.4
Tiberium Essence[]
The Shredder Turret uses Nod's usual dual-turret and hub defense system. Therefore, it can cover a larger area than it's counterparts but with the same efficiency as them. The Shredder fires high-power shrapnels that can cut through most battle armor types. It has been reported to act as a huge shotgun with a great range, arguably making it the most powrful AP defense structure in the game. Once upgraded, it can fire Tiberium Particle Beams that are able to destroy even light vehicles.
Trivia[]
- The Shredder Turret was planned to be replaced by a Napalm Launcher[1] in version 1.5, but the idea was scrapped, since the short range of the Napalm Launchers make them ineffective against missile infantry. The Shredder Turret was given a new design instead.
