Zero Hour Mod Generation X has posted an intense media update showcasing various units and their abilities through pictures and video. They brought in the big guns this time around and have even created some awesome wallpapers for the community to celebrate Generals Generation X Commander Zeke's birthday!

Before we dive head first into the goods, here is a little background info on the mod. The mod adds 3 new generals, called the "X" generals. These include the China Tech general, the USA Covert Ops General, and the GLA Warlord General. The mod also adds many new infantry, vehicles, superweapons, and powers to the pre-existing generals.

 

China X General - AKA China Tech General

Name: General Leang

Branch: PLA Research and Development

Tactics: High tech and Unconventional Weaponry

General Leang was responsible for reclaiming Europe from the hands of Deathstrike. Since then Leang has turned her attention to researching better weapons, to further strengthen her army. General Leang has the most advanced weapons of all the Chinese Generals, employing tesla and antimatter weaponry.

 

USA V General - AKA Covert Ops General

Name: General Ironside

Branch: US Special Forces

Tactics: Stealth and Deception

"To defeat your enemy you must know your enemy. To know your enemy you must become your enemy" -Sun Tzu (Art of War). General Ironside was first criticized as being too much like the GLA. These criticisms were put to rest following his swift defeat of the GLA forces at Baikanour, and later went on do defeating Dr. Thrax. General Ironside employs stealth and deceptionary tactics to infiltrate enemy bases and destroy them from within.

 

GLA General - AKA GLA Warlord General

Name: General Deathstrike

Branch: Unknown

Large Numbers, Strong Airforce

Known as the "true GLA leader". Following Thrax's defeat, General Deathstrike took it upon himself to unify the scattered GLA terror cells. It is said that Deathstrike leads with great passion and an unwavering commitment to the "cause" which he passes down to his men. It is said that Deathstrike even convinced the local population to join in and rise up against the US forces. He also has a lot of connections with foreign arms dealers, and has acquired a lot of modern equipment. Most prominent of which is his airforce, which made quick work of the unprepared US troops.
