''[[Tiberium Wars]]'' by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/348055/Peptuck Peptuck]
* Recommended by [[User:Gentlemens Dame 883]], [[User:Tacitus]], corin, Gatomon41, [[User:Latw PIAT]], Premier666, [[User:Shadow Dog]], [[User:Discar]]
* ''Synopsis'': A novelisationnovelization of ''[[Command and& Conquer]]: Tiberium Wars'' that vastly outdoes the official one.
* ''Comments'':
** [[User:Tacitus]]: This guy's ''good.'' Seriously - I spotted a handful of sentences with redundant descriptors, but aside from that this is writing that could compete with [[Dan Abnett]]. He knows the setting, he knows the hardware, he knows warfare...trust me, you'll forget you're reading fanfiction. Oh yeah, he also has a present for ya.
*** corin: The author himself has said in one of the later chapters he was heavily inspired by the ''[[Gaunt's Ghosts]]'' series. The story has a lot of throwbacks to ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' too, like GDI using Armored Fist squads, the Brotherhood of Nod addressing one another like Space Marines, and a big one to the ''Ghosts'' books with the Nod commander's name being Rawne.
*** Premier666: "That was left-handed." Brilliant.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5045795/1/Full_Red_Jacket Full Red Jacket]'' by Srelex
* Recommended by [[Obssesed Nuker]]
* ''Synopsis'': A story of the war of RA3, from the perspective of soldiers from different sides.
* ''Comments'': A series of semi-related one-shots, some with reoccurring characters, taking place chronologically throughout the events of Red Alert 3. The writing is solid and the author manages to present the rather ridiculous game mechanics and storyline in a more serious and believable light, although there is still plenty of hilarity to be found. A nice variety of combat situations take place, so fans of naval, air, and mechanized warfare can all find something here. All-in-all, a decent read to kill the time.

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6077005/1/Starcraft_AU_Tiberium_Galaxy Starcraft AU: Tiberium Galaxy]'' by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2410373/avatar_of_kane avatar-of-kane]
* Recommended by [[User:Steel Dusk]]
* ''Synopsis'': A [[StarcraftStarCraft]]/[[Command and& Conquer|C&C]] crossover alternate universe fanfic set after the events of ''Tiberian Twilight'' and during the events of ''[[StarcraftStarCraft II]]''.
* ''Comments'': This fanfic mainly focuses on Kane after his ascension, finding himself in a strange new world and recreates the Brotherhood of Nod while at it. Meanwhile, the Terran Dominion and the Protoss are baffled by the discovery of mysterious green crystals, which would attract some of Kane's old enemies...Expect lots of action! This fanfic also contains Unit Profiles and 'Unit Versus' sections which compares C&C units to Starcraft units and which one of them will be more likely to win in a fight.

''[[Renegade (fanfic)|Renegade]]'' by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/348055/Peptuck Peptuck]
* Recommended by corin
* ''Synopsis'': A ''[[Mass Effect]]''/''[[Command and& Conquer]]'' [[Crossover]]/[[Alternate Universe]] fic that replaces the Mass Effect Earth with Tiberium Earth, with GDI taking over the role of the Systems Alliance, that follows the plot of the original game.
* ''Comments'': Inspired by a discussion on Spacebattles.com.([http://forums.spacebattles.com/showthread.php?t=163762 Spacebattles story thread here.]) Essentially serves as a novelization of the game that explores how different everything would be if GDI replaced the Alliance, and how their technology and Tiberium would dramatically influence politics, relations, and history, i.e. {{spoiler|Nod intervenes in the slaver attack on Elysium, GDI goes to war with the Batarian Hegemony, and Akuze was actually a Scrin attack, among other things.}} The story is still relatively new, however, so there's no idea when it will be updated.

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6948148/1/A_Fourth_World_Country_in_The_War_of_Three_Powers A Fourth World Country in The War of Three Powers ]'' by mttspiii
* Recommended by general_tiu
* ''Synopsis'': A faux history of a Fourth-World Country the Philippines, after being bumped down from Third-World country status due to the Empire of the Rising Sun during and after the faux War of the Three Powers.
* ''Comments'': This is a hilarious take on Red Alert 3, not concentrating on the Allies, Soviets, and the Japanese, but in the Philippines as it has to deal with all three. The Philippine nation has to gather a guerrilla army against the Empire with weapons that were both hilarious and deadly. Better if you are a student of Filipino history and definitely not for the politically correct or the hard core C&C fan who cannot stand humor.
* Status: Unfinished
