Ahoy shockwave fans here's a special media update specificly about the new USA Armor generals defences.
since this isn't the usual turret or bunker defence you usualy find laying around it think it's special enough to get it's own media update.
First off we start with the Concrete Slab :

now some of you might think how the hell is that going to defend anything ?
well here is the anwser as the concrete slab can be upgraded with 3 defence modules just like
the component towers in Tiberian Sun could

now a short explainantion on each of them and i also have ingame movies of 2 of them.
First of the Vaporiser
this turret is mainly designed for anti personal use but can also be used against light armored vehicles.
it fires 90 rounds in 3 seconds and then has a short cooldown time of 3 seconds and then fires an other
burst of 90 rounds.

Second The Gazer Aircraft Detection Turret
altho it has no offencive weapons of it's own in combination with anti aircraft batteries this tower can be
very usefull and deadly to your enemy.
it has 2 bunker slots for infantry that can protect the turret from enemy attacks and the spot light can assist
anti air weapons in targeting which increases there rate of fire by 25%.
In addition the Gazer also has a early warning system for incoming air attacks should any aircraft get with in
a certain range of the gazor it will sound of it's sirine which you will surely hear so you can prepare for the
incoming airraid.
Special thanks goes to Co|V|r4de for this briliant idea
Ingame Demonstatation of the Gazer 2.8 MB (note you also get to see the gladiator in action on this one)
And finaly the Guardian
it has duel 120 MM anti tank cannons and it fires 2 rounds every 1.7 seconds over a mid long range and is
the only defence system in the game that can single handed take on a overlord.
