Umm, something which is useful to know at times for anyone who doesn't already.
1000 point chars have 350hp total, the ob does 300 damage - so u can take a direct hit and keep on walking. Used mainly on under when u can walk to the pp and place an ion - simply by walking straight to it.
Potential problems are obvious - you only have 50hp left so if u get shot at you're dead and also anyone listening for the ob going off may come to investigate.

I knew one of those posts would be coming - you would really be suprised to know how many people are completly oblivious to many things in game.
I didn't claim this was a new discovery.
Its a strats and tips forum, tbh I think this is a better tip than "ob walk" "fill an apc with ppl" or half the stuff that seems to be posted here.
If you find it useful great - If you can add some further info/ideas then even better.
Telling people that you knew this three years ago helps nobody.

just a little question, cause you mention under... on some servers tunnel beacons aren'T allowed if I plant a beacon for example in under next to the stone next o the pp... is this tunnel Beaconing or or what?
@ topic:
another good idea is to use the 1000credit char as a shield... just let him run in and stay in field of fire of ob... then let engineers run in (but keep in mind that obi fires a aoe laser... ) cause obi fires slow you got maybe 6 and more seconds to reach a building.... with 3 or more engis and a 1000cred char you can reach the hon and if you are very good the obi itself^^ but this only works if enemy is far far away...
Thanks.

On what map? It's be tough to do it on C&C_Field. If you could do that I would bow to your greatness, and award you with 83 gold stars.

I'm pretty sure we were talking about Under.
I really doubt you can do it on Field unless you obwalk.
