@People Who Play Sometimes I always did bombardment. Not only do you get a sweet artillery cannon on top that you can use as a defense, but since I like playing air general, all my airstrikes are 10% better, which is sweeeeeet.
Man, i want to install this game again just because of this song. Really captures the fact that you're leading an awesome military that can make multiple tanks, helicopters, jets and fucking carriers in a matter of minutes.
@FINSZ Blogs may be a hyperbolic statement, as I think the original intention was "you can call in airstrikes from a carrier off-shore" or something. It was 5 years ago, I was stupid back then.
@@Ch4pp13 You can call in A-10's and AC-130 Spectre gunships with, get this, two MASSIVE JET ENGINES AT THE BACK. oh and in ZH, you can control the carrier to call in airstrikes in one of the USA missions.
@@doggo_woo While None of this is untrue, I find it odd you neglect to mention the AC-130 Has a 105mm Cannon a Vulcan AND a 45mm aswell. This thing is literally a flying artillery piece.
@@LordOfGilneas Well, both irl and in-game spectre gunships share the same weapons. I mentioned the jet engines as that is the only major difference, aside from the sweep wing design of the gunship in-game.
F-22 Raptor: "Allright, let's rock!" USS Enterprise: "Eagles March on!" M1 Abrams: "Lock and Loaded!" AH-64D Apache Longbow: "Mission Begins!" USS Alreigh Burke: "Destroyer unit ready for action!"
"Here you go general, I've drawn the line in the sand. Now I dare ya to cross it! Come and get me general!" -General Townes after casually using a particle cannon to draw a line.
I can't stop compraing this song to the music "Driving with the top down" from Iron Man One. The way it mixs Instruments like the violins in the interludes and the surfing electric guitar give a mixture from the clasis warriors and the modern soliders concept
Although the song is nostalgic for my childhood, it reminds me more some of the names in the Bush administration, like Dick Cheney, Condolezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz and Colin Powell. The interesting thing is that while Secretary Powell was making his presentation at the United Nations about Iraq's Weapons of Mass Destruction on February 5, 2003, this game was being released on the very same day. Also the choice of the name "Zero Hour" was not random either. When George W. Bush's famous 48-hour ultimatum to Saddam Hussein expired, all television channels were showing the words ZERO HOUR with big headlines. And then we all know what happened next; Shock and Awe
