It feels bad that WW didn't include the SSM Launcher for Nod instead of using the GDI schemed Rocket Launcher.
I think it's only in Internet or LAN.

And the Nintendo64 version is the same as TD but no SSM.
The SSM wasn't that good but heres a photo of it.

I never thought it made sense either (hence why I made the temple of Nod the prerequisite in enhanced mode instead), but that's really how it was in the original TD.

I think it's one of the most important units Nod has since it can outrange Advanced Guard Towers (which would otherwise take many tanks or bikes to destroy). They're also fast and can easily escape if GDI sends an army of tanks after them (although AFAIK humvees catch them, so they need something to support them).

As Nod I usually build only a few normal rocket launchers because the SSM launcher can't shoot air units.

I agree that the Obelisk requirement makes no sense.. although I always build some Obelisks, so it doesn't affect gameplay.
