Vine Plague
So,its my 4-th special Plague Idea...This time,humanity will die because of plants.Its like the ''Day of the Triffids''.The difference is,that in this case,the plants do not walk.They grow.Imagine not being able to walk out of the house,because of a ten-meter high thorn-bush.Thats it.Thats the Vine Plague's doing.

Plan
1)Infection vectors
2)Symptoms
3)Abilities
4)Enemies.The Woodcutters.
5)Misc.
You infect plants and trees.The number is randomly created by Ndemic.
Use wood-points instead of dna points.
1)Infection vectors
1.Water 1-the plague infects dirty warm water
2.Water 2-the plague infects filtered water
3.Water 3-the plague infects chemically tainted water
4.Water 4-the plague infects cold water
5.Water 5-the plague infects rain-water
6.Earth 1-the plague can infect organically rich soil
7.Earth 2-the plague can infect sand
8.Earth 3-the plague can infect frozen soil
9.Earth 4-the plague can infect chemically treated soil
10.Earth 5-the plague can infect any crumbly material
11.Infected seeds 1-the plague can infect juicy large seeds
12.Infected seeds 2-the plague can infect small seeds
13.Infected seeds 3-the plague can infect dried seeds
14.Infected seeds 4-the plague can infect chemically treated seeds
15.Infected seeds 5-the plague can infect any type of seeds
16.Birds 1-the birds spread the seeds by eating fruit
17.Birds 2-the birds start looking for tasty infected seeds
18.Birds 3-the birds defecate near sities
19.Birds 4-the birds bomb-defecate seeds
20.Birds 5-the birds defecate near un-infected plants
21.Insects 1-the insects spread the plague.
22.Insects 2-the insects carry seeds and spores
23.Insects 3-the insects carry seeds and spores to un-infected forests and towns
24.Insetcs 4-the insects ride the birds and seed-bomb
25.Insects 5-the insects ride the animals and drop seeds
26.Animals 1-the animals eat the infected fruit and carry the plague
27.Animals 2-the animals defecate near un-infected territories
28.Animals 3-the animals cooperate with the birds,to gain tasty infected fruit
29.Animals 4-the animals cooperate with the insects,to gain tasty seeds
30.Animals 5-the animals drop some fruits near human towns
31.Seed Army(requires all previous abilities)-all animals,fish,insects,birds cooperate to get seeds and fruit.They eat and defecate,spreading the disease.
2)Symptoms
1.Survival(1,2,3,4,5)-the plants mutate faster,to survive in all the climates.
2.Regeneration 1-the plants regenerate faster
3.Regeneration 2-the plants regenerate even faster
4.Fast reproduction cycle-the plants start producing more seeds.Faster spreading
5.Thorns-the plants gain thorns.
6.Poisonous thorns-the plants produce poison,lethal only to humans and apes.
7.Big size-the plants become bigger and more dangerous.
8.Enormous size-the plants become even bigger,dwarfing the buildings.
9.Titanic size-the plants grow kilometers high.They crush towns and sities.
10.Carnivore-some of the plants become carnivouros and attack humans
11.Predator-even more carnivorous plants.
12.Halucenogenick spores-spore-clouds produced by the plants make humans hallucinate.
13.Poisonous spores-spore-clouds kill humans
14.Strong bark-the plants become very tuff,nearely immune to bombs and fire.
15.Chemical immunity-the plants become iimune to chemical bombing.
16.Vine-the plants grow large moving vines,that destroy vehicles,buildings.
3)Abilities
1.Animal army(1,2,3,4,5)(requires seed army)-horde abilitie,spread the disease.
2.Seed growth(1,2,3,4,5)(require infected seeds 1)-grow more plants in the targeted area.The area must be infected.
3.Miasma(1,2,3,4,5)(require poisonous spores)-sends an airborne cloud,that kills humans and apes.
4.Plant Aggression(1,2,3,4,5)(targeted abilitie)-makes infected plants very hostile.Requires Carnivore.
5.Vine Bridge(1,2,3)-tap a place on one continent and then another to make a large vine-bridge, neareby hords and miasma use the bridge and moove much faster.
Upgrade the bridge to increase max,length.A very pricy abilitie.
4)The Woodcutters.
The people fight the plague.They invent the cure.And they attack plants.
1.Woodcutter base-destroy it with plant aggression.
2.Woodcutter ship-destroys vine-bridges.Kill its crew with miasma clouds.
3.Woodcutter bomber-analogue of the drone.Bombs plants with napalm,chemicals and even nukes.Kill it with plant aggression.
5)Misc
1.Special genes
a)Fast growth-the seed growth is cheaper and more effective
b)Spiked bridge-the bridges are more protected against ships.
c)Longvine-the trees randomly destroy bombers.
d)Terraton-the plants grow larger
f)Hardplant-the plants are ruffer.
The picture of the disease is a small herb,that grows larger and more spiky-carnivore flower-aggressive looking.

Win.condition-kill all humans.The plants must live.

The contaminated territories are covered in spiky vines.

RE: Vine Plague
Theres a movie where trees evolve a disease that travels airborne in their pollen causing people to commit suicide. It effects sheep too.
