Tactical Analysis[]

  • Greatest Hits: The Chinese specialty anti-infantry turret, the Radio Emplacement is specially designed to cause massive cranial damage to an infantryman's mind, causing aneurism and death in seconds.
  • Not A Fan of Metal: Though effective against infantry forces, the design of the turret restricts it against vehicular and aerial threats; anything more than a few centimeters of steel distorts the rays and leaves the turret useless.
  • Try it in High Definition: Like all beginning defenses, the turret can be upgraded to increase its overall performance, though this does cost some resources.
  • Subliminal Messages: Eventually turrets will receive modifications that allow them to drive their target insane, willing to attack both enemies and allies until the either the turret stops targeting them or they die.

Background[]

No one knows the value of radio weapons more than surviving PLA soldiers, except for survivors from the NRA who watched as comrades fell to radio turrets. Their stories inspired the Atomic Kingdom to research heavily into radio artillery weapons, heavy radio emitters capable of firing massive beams of radio waves to disrupt human thoughts, and even send the target into horrifying seizures when affected. Though amazing, the first results were smaller in scale.

Little more than an antenna connected to a power source, the Radio Emplacement is the first line of anti-infantry defences for the Kingdom. The weapon is designed for the first initial scouts that might stumble onto an Atomic position, in order to prevent the enemy from finding the full measure of the base. These cheap turrets also act as a rear-line defence, in case the enemy manages to get troops behind the Kingdom's admittedly immobile lines.

In recent time the scientist had managed to find a very special frequency that taps into a person pain and anger nerves. And, with specific wave targeting it, they can cause infantry hit by them to go completely berserk and attack anyone and anything, including their own allies. However this frequency can only be tapped by a special radio, meaning that emplacements in the thick of combat are prioritised first.

Upgrade[]

Tier 1: Attack will now bounce off towards another target, up to three times
