I've found this fairly effective, the few times i actually do it... Be a Tech/Hotwire and plant a few proxys on the back of YOUR harvester, this'll stop anyone from putting their little payloads on the back of them. You can do this earlygame with remotes, but you have to pay attention.

TOTAL WASTE OF TIME! Try driving into a soldier with any vehicle without proxy...guess what...you run them over and kill them anyway! As for hitting a tank, if you do a test I guarantee you that you can do 3x the damage with your machine gun rather than ramming him.

proxies will only take out light vehicles and even then only if you hit them with 4 or 5. i did a test and 5 proxies will destroy a stealth if he runs over them(or rammed with them in this case), but won't do that much to the flame tank. besides, how many times do good players have to say to quit wasting your mines like that. all to often i see well placed mines disappear in a puff of smoke to somebody that's placing them in god awful places or trying to show off with the "mine" rush...

my fave stunt is to put the romtecontrolled ones down on something like an apc or even a meduim tank. take it near the base, and leave it for nod to take. when they get close enough.... another dirty [and reckless] trick gdi did on one server was LET them rush us. 7 rushes later we had amassed several stealth tanks, 3 apcs and some nod buggies. very reckless [we nearly lost the powerplant] but i think it was worth it.
