Temple of NOD ????

Am I right in saying that the Temple of NOD is used to launch NUKES ???

I am on mission 13 of the NOD and have built the Temple which cost a whopping 
3000 credits.
How the hell do I launch the Nukes ????
I have loads of excess power but I can see no option in which to use it.

Can anyone shed some light onto this problem?

Also a friend says that he is on Nod level 11 and he has built attack 
helicopters.
Is my (so called) freind bullshitting me or am I missing something, as I have 
never had the option to build an Attack Helicopter ????

Cheers.

DAN.

Yah.

: How the hell do I launch the Nukes ????

You can't restart any level.  Use savegames only...It's a soon-to-be-fixed
bug.  The Nuke Icon appears in the right column.  You get 1.

: Also a friend says that he is on Nod level 11 and he has built attack 
: helicopters.

I dunno about 11, but you can build them near the end.  Steal the GDI
Weapons factory, build a landing pad (Command center maybe?) and instead
of an Orca, you get an attack heli...Shoots like a guard tower.

They're rather useless IMHO, so I've only actually built them on 13.

If you have enough of them then they can be as effective as normal
orcas. In multiplayer six or seven can do nasty things to harvesters.
Also GDI has a problem in that their usual bazooka man defence doesn't
really work well against them as Attack helos are excellent against
troops.

Er Excuuuuuuuse me, but I think you're a little wrong on that one.

MRLS        - Build ACC.
Apache      - Take over GDI weapons factory, and build a helipad. You

                    get an apache with it, and can then build more.
Commando & Transport 'Copter - Multiplayer only. So is the SSM.

No Its possible..  If he took over GDI helipads then you get the chance 
to build Apache's since helipads without a copter is kinda useless! :')

Nope, it is possible,  but not as above.  

In single player mode if you take over a heli-pad then you can build
Orcas, if you take over a Construction yard and build your own
heli-pad then you can build Apaches.

Aggree with this - but I thought I had them all, and still no nukes :(  have to 
try
again I guess :)  And make sure I get the Nuke Crates!!

When I grabbed the crates, it didnt really seem like I got them - like in the 
last mission for the NOD, the church on the island that you get the commando on
 - there is a crate under it, and when I got that - I KNEW I got it, is dollar 
sign came up - and I got the money!!

When you get the detonator crates - what should you see????

No you are Wrong Bud!!! You can get All of the GDI Stuff, if you steal a GDI 
Contruction
Site!!! Then you have access to all their Stuff!!!  But I dont think you can 
build the Commando, or transport chopper ( atleast I never did ) - but you can 
build the Weapons center - so you can build Mammath Tanks, and you can get
access to the attack copter! and APC's, and grenadiers etc...

This is a Real Easy to Do in the Last Mission for the NOD, since the GDI have 
like three of them, you should be able to steal ONE - the one thing I did notice 
though, that I thought was kind of odd - when you build the heliopad, your copter 
does not shoot missles, but it shoots a Chain Gun!

Copters are not worth much anyway!! they are so easy to kill it a joke!!! atleast 
against the computer player - just send a scout bike, or a jeep - so that the 
orca's attack - and then high tail it back to one ( or 2 ) of your Sam Sites - 
Orca is Toast!!!  This would probably not work against a human player - who was 
watching the attack, since he would reassign the target, if the orca got to close 
to a sam site.
