[edit] Story Tiberian Sun departs from the original Command & Conquer and Command & Conquer: Red Alert by portraying each army's commander as a character, rather than referring to the player; Michael Biehn portrays GDI Commander Michael McNeil, reporting to James Earl Jones's General James Solomon, while Frank Zagarino portray's Nod's Commander Anton Slavik, trying to keep the Brotherhood of Nod united after the death of Kane at the end of the original Command & Conquer.

The world has suffered since the arrival of Tiberium; plants and animals are either dying or mutating into hideous monstrosities, displacing human civilizations toward the polar regions, where Tiberium grows slowly, or onto GDI's orbital satellite headquarters Philadelphia.

In the GDI campaign, General Solomon gives Commander McNeil a number of missions: forge an alliance with The Forgotten, whose leader Tratos knows how to decipher the Tacticus, retrieve the Tacitus from the Brotherhood of Nod, and make sure that Kane is dead, even if he has to kill him.

In the Nod campaign, Nod commander Anton Slavik manages to escape the facility where he is about to be executed as a GDI spy under the authority of Nod's current leader, Hassan, who is secretly allied with General Solomon. With the assistance of his right-hand woman, Oxanna, Slavik wages a war against Hassan in the name of Kane, his forces surrounding Hassan's pyramid headquarters very quickly. He succeeds, and much to everyone's surprise, Kane's face appears on a wall screen to his loyal subjects just as Hassan is about to be publicly executed on-stage. Hassan's throat is slit, and a new Tiberium War against GDI begins.

[edit] Firestorm

Firestorm BoxThe Firestorm expansion follows the events of the GDI campaign. With Nod seemingly fractured into feuding warlords following Kane's second demise, Commander Slavik is determined to keep the dream alive. Unfortunately, CABAL betrays him, and starts using Nod's Tiberium cyborgs to take over the world. This move forces Slavik to approach the GDI with an alliance against a common foe.

CABAL has Tratos assassinated, preventing GDI from learning anything more from the Tacitus, and starts rounding up human populations for transformation into cyborgs, or for simple extermination.

Eventually, the combined forces of GDI and Slaviks Nod forces 'win' the battle against CABAL, but CABAL is not destroyed. Whatever events follow Firestorm will be revealed in Command & Conquer: Tiberian Twilight. The game in question, officially titled Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, has been unofficially confirmed on April 18 2006 due to a leaked picture of the frontpage of a yet unreleased PC Gamer issue (June 2006). An official press release shortly followed on the 20th of April, and can be found here.
