History Fanfic / RenegadePeptuck

* AlternateUniverse: Fairly obviously. Among the other things, GDI is friendly with both the quarians and the krogan, Shanxi was a bloody ground war due to GDI's heavy armor and orbital ion cannons, the Batarian Hegemony is at war with GDI, [[spoiler: Miranda works for the Brotherhood of Nod,]] Kaidan is a Tiberium mutant, [[spoiler: Akuze was a Scrin attack]], Wrex and Jacob are on Eden Prime during the geth attack, [[spoiler: Nihlus survives]], Jacob takes Ashley's place on the Normandy, Charles Saracino is on the GDI Director's Board, and Garrus, is a Spectre. Note also that this story apparently ignores the events of ''Tiberian Twilight''.

Note also that this story apparently ignores the events of ''Tiberian Twilight''.

* NoKillLikeOverkill: GDI's approach to warfare is pure, unrelenting firepower coupled with DisproportionateRetribution. For comparison to the original timeline, the assault on Torfan was a ground attack through the pirates' tunnels. In this timeline, Torfan's base was orbitally obliterated by an ion cannon barrage that destroyed the complex and everything within fifty kilometers of the base.

* AllThereInTheManual: Each chapter has a Codex entry at the end, similar to ''Mass Effect's'', which details information that wouldn't be readily clear in the fanfic's narrative.

*** When asked if units and tech from the Red Alert series would make an appearance (He had already confirmed that the first Red Alert game exists in this continuity, post Allied victory) he simply responded with a picture of [[{{Gargoyles}} David Xanatos]]. Smiling. [[ClaspYourHandsIfYouDeceive With clasped hands.]]

* StandardSciFiFleet: WordOfGod has laid out that the different navies of both GDI and Nod have distinct compositions and doctrines. GDI's fleet primarily consists of carriers and lighter ships, with an emphasis on base-hopping and resource and convoy interdiction, with enormous, heavily-armed fleets for destroying hardened targets and "super-heavy carriers" based on MCV technology that are designed to supply cluster-wide operations. Nod, on the other hand, uses larger numbers of lighter cruisers, complete with long-range fighters and light carriers, with an emphasis on destroying enemy supplies and support and avoiding a decisive engagement, causing the enemy to waste resources and spread himself thin defending against constant attacks.

* BigDamnGunship: The Orcas at the end of the fourth chapter.

Written by the same author behind ''Fanfic/{{Tiberium Wars}}'' and ''Fanfic/{{Forward}}.'' Notable for the level of depth involved in depicting the effect that a GDI-led humanity would have on the galaxy. For example, GDI's use of artificial intelligences and their general-purpose xenophobia has resulted in GDI remaining independent of the Citadel, while their access to Tiberium and their advanced technology (i.e. ion cannons) enables them to remain on a par with the Citadel militarily. It is implied but not outright stated that this universe's Earth is set after the "good" ending to ''Tiberium Wars'' (as opposed to ''Tiberian Twilight'', which is set after the "bad" ending). The story also draws a great deal of inspiration from the canceled ''Tiberium'' game, using various designs, weapons, and uniforms from the game, such as the Integrated Combat Suit and a variant of the GD-10 weapon.
