I like the GDI's mammoth tanks and the missile towers. But I always played NOD for the Tesla Coils and the double barreled tanks. Mmm. And I'm talking about the old school C&C. Like the first game.

Maybe if you played C&C rather than WoW, you'd remember.

They are basically the same thing, though, as the Soviets in Red Alert were being controlled by Nod.

well NOD has what you call " GDI counter technology" they dont have very powerful units aside from the avatar which when fully upgraded, can match if not stop a mammoth tank rush.

I like GDI, not just because they are the good guys, because they have this awsome bull rush mentality. sure you could spit out more scorpion tanks than you can predators or even mammoth tanks. NOD is all about rushing. it takes a very long while to build up a sizable force/ excellent base defenses, but once you have a fleet of mammoth tanks, pitbulls, zone troppers, mcv's with infantry and snipers and at least 2 squadrons of orcas/ firehawks, youll rip a base easily, i can care less if you have a crapload of obilisk of light around your base.

the key trick to doing well with GDI, is to turtle. there is no point in rushing a base only for a bunch of small units to be decimated and have barely anything to stop a counterattack.

here is how you counter NOD units


flame tank---- zone troopers/ preds or even mammoths( get the railgun upgrade even if it cost 5000 units.)
avatar---- definately mr. commando and orca's.. mammoths can help out too.
scorpion tanks----- a crap load of missle troppers in mcv's/ zone troopers and tanks
nod buggy---- thats stupid for me to answer, my slingshot can kill it
nod infantry=-- very difficult to deal with unless you have snipers./rifleman in mcv's.. and yes i hate those nod fanatics,, i get irratable bowel syndrome every darn time i see these fools.
stealth tanks--- any good hitting unit with stealth detection will do.
venoms/ vertigo bomber---- ill let my pitbull or even 2-4 squadrons of firehawks armed with missiles turn them into chop suey.


the scrin...man are they dangerous, sending swarms of aircraft to the point where your air defenses are too weak= priceless. reminds me of ID4.

GDI are better now since 1.09

But i choose not to play them becuase it is allways the same lame mammoth spam

I'd rather be nod and micromanage my stealthtanks and misc. forces....

Tbh in 1.09
stealth tanks (attacking from behind after leading mammoths out of base) > GDI base
­ Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me

GDI are worse since 1.09. Economy slowing = less expensive units. Mammoths also got their turrents slowed to 1/3 what it was so hit and runs with Stealth Tanks (who got a +66% firepower) are fucking deadly against them.

Nothing argues with Scrin airpower, though. Nothing.

Stealth Tanks do, rapid fire rockets. And to a lesser extend Fire Hawks (resupplying is a bitch) and if they are mostly using the Devastator than so do Venoms. Also Scrin aircraft are ineffective against infantry so Rocket guys and Mutants (which I only bother with if I'm fighting Scrin) are also effective.

Stank<PAC swarm.

PAC swarm>Venoms.

Obviously, they have to compliment each other.

The infantry is the only way, since, I do admit, they suck against infantry. However, if you mass the infantry too much, Devastators will own it through area of effect.

The only other negative thing about the Scrin is they can't rush in and quickly eliminate a super weapon.

Not true, I have had Stealth Tank's defeat PAC swarms with ease. You do howeve have up to par mirco though as you need to be able to get all the rockets you need into the thing without having too many hit an already dead target. The PAC also costs twice that of a stealth tank and I have had two stealth tanks beat one shielded PAC without losing one of them.

Never had that happen (try doing it against a Ion Stormed PAC). If not, though, then Stormrider swarms will accomplish the same thing.
