What if AGT isnt down? You cant get in. 1 or 2 hotties and 2-3 mammys and AGT cant die.

I think he was pretty much implying that when defences are up and the map was hourglass - both of which you didn't include :\ Aside from that the main thing you need to really worry about is that you have at least 2 guys repairing in the AGT if they did rush with 7 flame tanks. Otherwise its best to have at least 2 vehicles on the hill shooting at them before they actually rush. Making sure as well that tanks on the sides pull back to defend... But yeah it's really too easy to camp on hourglass and that's why not having hill camping is stupid. It actually makes those tanks who just sit at the AGT come up. Likewise if Nod was camping
Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

Consider it to be like this: Under, GDI base defenses are down, and so is the Nod Tiberium Refinery. Nod has been pounding GDI's base with Artilleries, but haven't destroyed anything other than the Advanced Guard Tower. GDI takes down one of the Artilleries and the driver. He buys a Stealth Black Hand and a Nuclear Strike Beacon. Two other people swap from Nod Soldiers to Flamethrower Troopers.
They get to the tunnels for GDI, and the Flamethrower Troopers sacrifice themselves on the mines, and the Stealth Black Hand walks through.
|
That's just the backdoor technique, when it comes down to it. If GDI rely on their front line defence for their total base defence it's their loss. If the soldiers not dedicated to repairing buildings or manning the mammoths get theirselves to the tunnel and defend it with human intelligence rather than some static mines, Nod'll be really hard-pressed to get in without some sort of organisation and ideas.
Of course, even simply defending the tunnel and main entrance won't necessarily work...what if Nod bring a team of competent players to the tunnel, eliminate whoever is defending it and (your suggestion) get flamethrowers to blow the mines with SBH to proceed, while those that survived killing the tunnel defence distract GDI.
Anything's possible with teamwork, really. It's just that so many of the old-timers refuse to participate in tactics like that, and would rather keep the game at a hopeless chokepoint and let GDI win.
p.s. I agree with the HT guy that posted earlier. The thread starter's post is a 100% accurate long-time player's advice, and it's good advice

1. How hard is it to write credits rather than creds?
2. You capitalized the first letter of the word when it wasn't necessary.
3. "net you"? What the fuck? Your fingers can't possibly be that big.
4. Your sentence lacks something... I know! An A!

Do we need to start a thread about grammar? Even tho I can't spell and have no care to know how to spell, I have noted that people on the Internet are having typing worse then mine. This is very sad. I should be the lowest quality of typing allowed.

I don't ask for perfect grammar as I myself don't demonstrate it, but I only ask for people to try. A failure to apply any punctuation is not trying.
