Which planet did they destroy?

Looks to be another part of France. Which is pretty on brand for the French, as no one hates the French more than the French.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Can confirm: lived in Paris. The French detest nothing more than The French. Besides the French Caribbeans, they don't hate anything. Probably because they're not in France.

Wasn’t this in C&C: Red Alert 2?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was just thinking that. Was it turned into a huge Tesla coil or something?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes

The city was poorly guarded because most of the French forces had joined with the Germany army along the Polish border. Taking advantage of this weakness, the Soviets sent a squad of Tesla troopers to turn the Paris Tower into a giant Tesla coil. The plan was successful, devastating the Allied forces in the region and forcing thousands of Parisians to flee.

What a killer plot that game had.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

One of my favorites. And for anyone wanting to play them again, all the first decade command and conquer games were added to steam and they all run out of the box with none of EAs launcher bullshit

King Charles: So the French have made their move. Camilla, activate Bigger Ben

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Nah, the Eifle tower will only be weaponized when you station tesla troopers around the base of it who turn it into an enormous tesla coil.
