Can be set to 'yes' or 'no' and specifies that the warhead does not cause damage, but instead simply 'disables' any units it hits, the effect being that the player owning the affected units cannot control them (although they can be selected). The amount of time the target(s) are affected by is determined by the Damage= on the associated weapon. This is residual from Tiberian Sun's EMP Cannon logic and it is not known if this can be enabled in Red Alert 2.

If set, the warhead will not deal any damage, but instead "paralyze" the objects it affects. The Weapon's Damage in this case will define the duration of the paralysis. Paralyzed objects display the [AudioVisual]EMPulseSparkles= animation over them. Additionally, this tag makes the game play random image from the warhead's AnimList on impact.

The paralysis works the following way:

Notes

  • Infantry are by default immune to EMP, except those with Cyborg=yes. However, some keys introduced in TS:Firestorm allow for immunity to EMP on vehicles, such as IsCoreDefender.
  • EMEffect=yes on the warhead can resolve IE=00422131 caused by TechnoTypes.

In Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge

This tag doesn't paralyze objects anymore, although the game will still play a random animation from the warhead's AnimList. This tag has a bug that makes a weapon deal no damage when its projectile has Inviso=yes and AA=yes. This tag has a bug that makes a missile (or any Weapon with a trajectory) detonate ahead of time, even missile has 5-6 grids away from the target when it detonated.
