Terrorists are Cuban suicide bombers working for the Soviet Union during Third World War and the Psychic Dominator Disaster.

BackgroundEdit

These fanatical communists run towards any building or unit owned by the filthy capitalists or the traitor Yuri and detonate the explosives they wear, destroying or heavily damaging the target and killing themselves. Cubans find no shortage of loyal communists willing to die for the cause of global revolution. Therefore, terrorists can be trained and armed at a low cost.

Game unitEdit

Terrorists on their own are essentially a cheaper version of the Libyan Demolition truck, but they are also proportionately weaker. The result is that they have to be used en masse against a target building for full effect. However, if they are bunched up, as moving masses of infantry usually are, if even one is killed, it will cause a chain reaction of explosions that will take out the whole group. That is not even if a sniper or air strike kills one: by definition, Terrorists explode when they attack a building. If they are sent in a horde of 10-30, single-file, the explosion of the first will cause the rest to self-destruct in a chain of explosions before they even reach their target. Thus, Terrorists must be used carefully: if a large swarm of a dozen or so makes it near a building, they must make sure they hit it all at once. Even then, large groups of them can be completely destroyed even if a group of standard Allied G.I.'s manages to kill just one.

A deadly tactic involves having a Crazy Ivan plant bombs onto a Terrorist then load them into a Flak track and drive it into enemy buildings. Additionally, packed into Allied IFVs, they turn them into a mini nuke truck.

AssessmentEdit

ProsEdit

  • Strong against buildings.
  • Cheap to deploy in large groups.
  • Can be combined with captured Allied IFVs to make a mini nuke truck.

ConsEdit

  • They die in order to damage the enemy.
  • If they are bunched up, killing one will cause a chain reaction of explosions killing all of them.
  • Can be picked off by most anti-infantry weapons, especially the British Sniper, as well as aircraft, such as the NightHawk Transport.
  • Yuri's mind control units can take over the Terrorists before they can get close enough to the target.
  • Only available to Cuba
