Template:OldSuperweaponTabs The Lightning Storm is a support power that is the ability of the Allied offensive superweapon, the Weather Control Device. It manipulates weather patterns to unleash the wrath of Zeus himself on the communists and Yuri's followers alike in the form of a catastrophic lightning storm that causes untold destruction.
While the Lightning Storm is very powerful, able to destroy most structures with ease, vaporizing infantry and blasting vehicles, it is known for the lightning bolts' tendencies to hit random areas, making it not as precise as the other sides' superweapons.
The storm clouds also interferes with radar frequencies, disabling all enemy radars (but not friendly radars) for twice the duration of the storm.

AI behavior
The AI will use Lightning Storm to target any of the following, assuming they are not cloaked:
- Construction Yards
- Power providers (not on Hard difficulty),
- War Factories
- Tier 3 technology providers (e.g. Epsilon Pandora Hub)
If all these does not exist, it'll target base defenses, then finally units.
Appearances
Act Two
- Lightning Storm is first usable in Stormbringer. However, it can be only used twice: one is given during the second base is established, and the other is given when the Epsilon base is revealed.
- In Relentless, Lightning Storm becomes permanently usable.
