it might have been mentioned, but you can use your OWN harvester as cover to escape from YOUR base when it's under siege...
The annoying thing is how harvesters don't stop when they encounter a blockage, they just run right through it...and while this is acceptable with infantry, it really pushes all the wrong buttons when your mammoth that needs repairs gets a friendly nudge into the line of fire.

I recently tried this tactic and found out which maps it works best on.City is overall the best as you can follow it behid the well and thn quickly turn off at the pp or tib ref.stelth/nuke is the best idea for this tactic.Although itsd all or nothing as it sets you back 1400 credits,but can be very rewarding

Yep, it's pretty cool when it works. Noone ever listens to me either when I say 'DONT ATTACK THE HARVESTER'. Therefore it only works when there aren't that much n00bs in the game so the harvester will be left alone. It's not very smart to try it in the beginning because then there is always al lot of infantry near the harvester.
