    I was watching the treads about the unit scales and was astounded by the size of the commander (That sucker is the size of a 4 story building!o_O). Then i tough That gameplay videos don't help convey that sense of scale or epicness.

    So i was wondering should Uber have a CGI trailer (intro video) for launch?
    Like this with better graphics:

    While we're talking about epic RTS intro trailers: Here's KKND2. Just some food for thought :). It even has robots!

    You notice how it starts *in space* and even shows an *asteroid*.... TA had spoilers in it for PA!! I get the impression PA is the game Mavor wanted to make in the first place had the technology been available :)

    The Supcom intro video lies :p it shows us a UEF transport that does not appear in game, and depicts an ACU firing on air units, with its arm cannon, something it is unable to do ingame. Riot I say, Riots for days.

    I would consider doing animations and stuff like that myself if I had the time/know how, to make beautiful backgrounds, sets, planets, etc...

    JPL would be perfect as the voice of Invictus! That commander's imposing stature and wide shoulders could be complemented with an ominous, but awesome voice that heralds annihilation.

    Not a problem. Just remember that when the next word starts with a consonant, use "a". When it begins with a vowel (or a consonant that makes a vowel sound in some special cases), use "an".

    Personally I don't want a CGI Trailer. I would rather have the trailer done with the in game rendering engine.

    To the OP, would be kool to have a new CGI cinematic for the games launch, but I wouldn't really count on it as that takes time and resources away from the game to make
