See ive seen this many times, NOD will rush, mainly because there light tanks are cheap...anyway, they will rush but because someone on GDI seen it, they are able to fend it off, now my question to you guyz is, when do you like to rush? if at all? when NOD rushes at the beginning, alot of the games ive done, if GDI survives, they will usually win.

My point is that you know as well as I do whathe meant when he said NOD. It's a common mistake to make because people new to Renegade think that Nod is an abbreviation like GDI.
Drop the whole NOD, Nod thing, we all know what he means.

Remember it is The Brotherhood of Nod, I think. No, remember that no one really gives a damn. To the topic at hand, or is it Hand? Is it a question, or a statement? Should it be a period or a question mark? Did I place a comma in the correct place, or did I need a comma?
It depends on the map, the number of players, the timing of the decision, and what the enemy is doing (Meds camping or whatever) I'm sorry, medium tanks camping. At Hourglass, one Brotherhood of Nod apc (or is it Brotherhood of the Nod) can take out the PP (GDI power plant structure), yet 7 flamers (Nod flame tank units, hmmm I'm not sure, call me on this one) can also get crushed in short order. That is inconceivable I know, but it happens. I would still take my chances with the 7 flamers though. This is my own personal rant on the misuse of stealth units. Purchasing any stealth unit at Hourglass with the AGT (Advanced Gaurd Tower or is it advanced gaurd tower) still operational baffles me. Who are you going to hide from, and where would you hide? But I digress. In summery, I have no idea. Just go with the flow, If your team gets artys (Nod Artillery Units or Nod artillery units) then you should probably do the same. If you don't know what you should do, get an eng and support your team, or defend the base. You can learn so many tactics for attacking by simply defending.
I know that this must be hard to read, and I do apologize.
Rant alert!!! This is why I hate people. We would never speak to a complete stranger face to face the way we will in a forum. We are almost always nice to people that we meet, and treat them with the utmost respect. However we will treat people we know and love and see everyday (or in this case don't see at all) like shit. This is just an observation. Please, let the bashing begin.

| Wow. You're an asshole. Better you than me, though. I like you, mision. You've got brass ones. Then again, how much brass is really needed to go and make an ass of yourself semi-anonymously on the Internet? The world may never care. . .
At lot of time I'm playing on any general server and our team rushes, we almost always get the hoo-haw knocked out of us. It doesn't matter if we're Nod, rushing with Light or Stealth Tanks, or the GDI(Yes, the GDI. Oh-em-gee.), rushing with Medium Tanks and/or MLRS trucks. Nine times out of ten, rushing is a bad move. Why? Because the other team is, surprise-surprise, plotting to rush us!! Gasp and hor-ror!! Therefore, they have a goodly numbers of vehicles on their side which unexpectedly serve to defend their base. Doesn't anyone just. . .I dunno. . . Use Infantry anymore? I know it's physically impossible to mount an effective assault using infantry on most maps with automated defenses(Not all, but most. Particularly non-Westwood maps.), but seriously. You'd think that someone would have tried it. Advanced Guard Towers, and especially Obelisks of Light, can't open fire on twelve people at once.(Though the Obelisk could fire off three lasers within three seconds, wait five seconds, then repeat, if the game were more like the original Command & Conquer. Harr.) But I digress. . .
I generally don't try and "rush" if I can avoid it. If it happens, it's because some equally-foolhearty blokes are blindly following me into the opposing base with hope in their hearts and spirits high, hoping one of us will be able to do some damage. I used to be a fan of rushes, sure, but I mostly assist in terminating Infantry with Patch/Black Hand units nowadays, weither it be by riding in an APC and jumping out as Engineers/Technicians are throwing C4 every which-way, or by running through tunnels and hitting anything that comes my way. But that's just me.

Thank You, this often times goes unnoticed.
What about city and glaziers? I start rushing at city @300+ credits and don't stop till im forced to. I think it's important for gdi to keep consistent pressure on nod with rushes (at city). If you have 4 players that stick together and rotate the purchase of apc, hotwires and the occasional ion, you will catch nod in the wrong place eventually. And if you don't, they will sit on the air strip until they have 6 or 7 stanks to rush with. As far as rushing with a light tank, there is no such thing. A light tank is for shooting other vehicles, it doesn't have the destructive power that a stank or flamer has when shooting a building. It is nothing more than a low profile apc with a canon and half the payload.
PS. can someone please edit this and paste the edited version in their reply so I can quickly fix the errors.

Seriously. There's all sorts of irony in what the guy who kicked you said. Or rather, how he put it.
