C&C Generals Contra Superweapons Showcase

A Showcase of the Superweapons Added/Edited in the Contra mod for C&C Generals Zero Hour. Contra means "against" in Spanish.

To qualify as one It must be VERY destructive either doing a lot of damage and/or otherwise disrupting the enemy as it does damage, or be a buildable weapon structure meant to be used/launched at the enemy base and affect them in some major way. Contra adds quite a lot of new content and even epic units. The Air Force General has it's Particle Uplink Cannon replaced with a building that can (when it's timer is up) call in a airstrike as a superweapon attack. Infantry and Tank Generals have the default Nuclear Missile while the Nuclear General has a upgraded one that splits into 3 parts (and can be upgraded into 5 parts), it is more expensive however, he can also build the expensive, super destructive time bomb that is the Hadron Collider and the Nuclear Storm which is really expensive and consumes a ungodly amount of power, but can effectively wipe a faction from the game when it's ready to use (it takes over 10 minutes though). The Superweapons General has a Tomahawk Storm which is basically a SCUD Storm reimagined with the America in-game art style (it is not as strong though), a weather machine that can summon a lightning storm, and a ICBM. GLA factions also has some entries including a nuke truck for the Explosives faction, a Jammer station that can effect your opponents strategy by shrouding the entire map for opponents for the Stealth Faction, and the Assault Forces (a added faction in the mod) can fire a single large missile out of a temple for it's superweapon.

The mod can be found on ModDB.
