Dude, mammoths own flamers. At close range, it might be a close one, but how many idiots actually let the flame tank get close? For the AGT flame rush, get a mammoth and rush the obilesk. How hard is that? If they have defence they'll blast you, if they don't they lose the obilisk. Same thing.

easiest way top block a flame tank rush is to block teh flamers physically. This means you can buy one or two med tanks and use a physical barrier between the flame tanks and the guard tower. the guard tower will destroy them and so will the med tanks. The flame tanks cant get close enouigh ot teh guard tower to not get hit by the guard tower because the med tanks are blocking them from doing so. this is an extremly useful tactic. I've stopped 4 flame tanks with one apc

Well, the only thing cheap about a flame attack is that the flame can get thru the walls and attack the AGT's MCT. It is NOT a cheap tactic to attack the MCT directly with a unit that it can't hit, for the simple reason that you can easily prevent it by a little thing I like to call "Defending the Base." I often sit outside my AGT in a mammoth tank, just defending. I've stopped many a flame tank by stopping it from getting too close to the AGT to be fired on, merely by being in the place it's trying to get to. Like I said in my "C&C tactics" post - never rely on just your AGT for defense.
