Cannon Cyborg (Cost : 800): Commonly named the 'Cannon' Cyborg, they are armed with an anti-armour laser cannon similar to that of the Eclipse Tank. While not as effective as Eclipse Tanks in the field, Cannon Cyborgs are extremely durable and will always be one of the last units standing in a firefight.

Although physically resilient, Cannon Cyborgs are vulnerable to anti-armour weapons such as Discus grenades which can make short work of them. Also of note the mechanical systems of the Cannon Cyborg are susceptible to EMP and Ion Storms.

Primary: Anti-Armor Pulse Cannon
Requires: Hall of Faith

Creation

Cyborgs are the combination of living tissue and machine. Most of the early prototypes were created from mutant prisoners, but the majority in service today are volunteers who were offered the change to continue to serve the memory of Kane even after their natural life has expired. The subject is lobotomised and then altered with several Tiberium based treatments. Many subjects do not survive the deliberate mutation of their flesh and die before receiving a single cybernetic augmentation. Those that survive then have roughly 65% of their body surgically removed, the remainder is then grafted into a heavily armoured mechanical exo-skeleton. Many more subjects die during surgery but those that are successfully grafted into their new body are then linked with Nod's main governing AI. Then only after going through many diagnostic checks are they fitted with their weapons.

The Cyborg creation is heavily followed up by the Inner Circle, however long-term Kane followers tend to frown upon the cybernetic experiments as they do not believe this was Kane's true legacy.
