In game name Blixten31

you need about 3 - 4 to make it easy...

but - before you do that - run into the tunnels and attack - attack - attack.
good way to earn credits -- (bring an engie along) Flamethrowers/Chem warriors/etc...

get a MA and turn the turret around so it's facing the short end. drive up the hill and start shelling the T-Ref. Backup if incoming fire hits you.

take a MA to the right side (same turn around turret strat) and hug the right wall -- start shelling the War Factory / Barracks.
just as you target them. Your less exposed and sometimes take them out before they know what happened.

But above all -- talk to your team and fight as one..... you will win more and enjoy it better....

Be an Tech and mine the base (search other posts for strats)--- place some mines out on the chokepoints to knock out armor (helps obi hit them harder) and stop those pesky GDI Hotwires.

Important -- use a tank/MA to BLOCK APV's and Tanks incoming. The OBI will hit them longer and you will squish the survivors.

Stealth Blackhands out on the side roads are useful for hit and run/tank stealing. (and spying).

(I won't tell you mine though.)

I once was even able to place a nuke beacon in front of the AGT, w/ GDI destroying my flame tank w/ medium tanks. Don't ask how, but I killed one Hotwire that tried to difuse the beacon w/ me standing right on top of it. A few bullets to the head stopped her.

Lets hear some GDI strategies!

The real problem is that GDI needs really good balance between offense and defense on this map.
You need two tanks in base, blocking the sides of the AGT to prevent both flame rushes and APC rushes. But, it can't sit on it's can the whole game defending either, and expect to win. One good strat that I've managed to pull off a few times (on the rare team oriented game), is to, again, make sure to have two med's or mammoths at your base entrance, ready to fend of flamers (and at least two techs ready to repair the AGT). The second step is to have a well loaded APC ready to bolt at the first sign of a flame rush. For this to work, you HAVE to wait for the flame rush. Once you see the tanks coming, take off toward the enemy base. If the flamers are coming in from the top, go the side route. The reason this often works is because Nod usually spends so much energy putting the flame rush together that their attention is usually on it, and not on their base, so it gives a good window of opportunity for rushing. Again, this tactic is rarely usefull, as it requires too much coordination, and, I'm sure if you could organize your team that well, there would be plenty of better strat's than this you could arrange.....

Mine the AGT - Plant at head level in door and right in entrance.

Mine the PP - Plant at head level in door and wall. - plant on floor on either side of middle console. (the Noddies seem to APV/FT rif

Mine out by the two entrances to the base - two strips - about 5' apart. (this is to take some armour off / kill survivors of tanks exploding)

(only use about 20 mines - leave some for the "i gotta mine something else"

Get 3 MRLS and sit behind the little walls up front. (blocking the paths - watch out for harvy coming out)

Have hotwire support.

Have two hummers on each side - by tunnel exits and let them start hitting the incoming -(gunners/officers riding shotgun) prearrange a quick comm code so the team at the base knows something is coming that way.. (if you hear "Defend the war factory - they are coming on the right)("Defend the Barracks" they are coming on the left)

Die if you must - but slow them down..

Must have team communication - "FTs Top/right/Left/ALL"

start to target them with the MRLS- try to hit one at a time with all 3 - if you can.
Block when they get danger close...

By this time - everyone else in the base is pounding them.

Hoepfully the hotwire can keep you alive long enough to blow em up.

If you survive that - get some med's to be your blockers (2 at base - 2 on slopes (they can roll back and block or block over the top)

Have a couple of MRLS in the base to pound on them.

Now for attack --
Take gunners/officers/hotwire/engie to tunnels and pound on the turrets. drop c4 out of tunnel to kill any enemy coming in.

Move up 2 MRLS's, hummer (loaded with gunner/officer) to the right side and pound on the HON.

Do the same on the left - but hit the OBI or Air..(i prefer the air -- no ft's)

try to do it at the same time -- with people in the tunnels.

When you get enough - 2-3 mobies as BD's (in med tanks) make a pretty good stopping force.

As stated in other posts - two mamies blocking work great also -- use the Tusks when they get close.

While your pounding them - run in a APV with some Hotwires and mine fodder - let the mine fodders run in to take out mines - hotwire the obi - and remember to leave a driver in to cover you with the mg.

If your succesfull in taking out the Obi - run to the HON/Air and pound on them/or kill the regenerating Noddy s***... (lol)

These are some tactics that i have used/seen and they work --

add anymore that you may know.

as Nod, you have to make an early flame rush of at LEAST 6-8 tanks. now that the game's been out for 2 months people who are on GDI know how to defend here. all you need to foil a flame rush here is a horde of med tanks and some mrls's and some sydney/PIC.

another fun nod strategy is taking 2-3 Artillery onto the top of the hill and pound on the big flashing stick on the GDI refinery. if the GDI team is sleeping, you'll have it dead in seconds. otherwise, you rack in the points until a tank finally comes and gets you.

and also another fun trick for Nod is to get 3-4 artillery on the side roads with technicians for repair. have them all pound on the weapons factory or infantry barracks. Like the refinery rtick, if GDI is sleeping you'll kill them both. but if you do it early enough they will never see it coming until they hear "GDI Weapons Factory Destroyed".

The best tactic for spying is using the rock at the top of the hill I have dubbed as the "spy rocks". on either side of the hill on the very top is (coming up the Nod side) a small rock on the left side. get in a buggy and hide behind it for a totally clear view of the GDI base. and in the center of the top get a humvee behind the bunch of rocks there and sit there for a perfect view of the Nod base to warn your team when a flame rush is coming.

Once the GDI AGT is killed from a flame rush, just use stealth black hands to take out the rest of the GDI base.

If your on GDI and your AGT is killed from a rush, dont worry. this is probably the only map where you can survive with no defenses. there are only two ways into your base, so stick a mammoth in both entrances and completely block them off, and then mine the sides of the mammoth to make sure no stealths sneak by. keep meds and mrls's behind the small metal walls for support, and a contingent of hotwires and engineers about to repair your defense forces after a rush and to disarm any beacons that may have been set by a smart stealth black hand that got by.

Easy enough. I always use these strategies and they aways work.
