GDI meta/tips?

[Perturbed Mechanic]

So I'm stuck on the Alexandria mission for the GDI campaign, and the furthest I've gotten is spamming the production of Mammoth Tanks and riflemen. I'm terrible, so can someone give me a quick guide?

spamming Mammoth tanks and Riflemen are a bad idea, i'm more for blobbing Zone Troopers with Rocket Squad as additional anti vehicle and anti-air support, but the Mammoth tanks should only serve as a mobile shielding vehicle than an actual fighting vehicle.

don't forget to upgrade your units, Zone Troopers won't need to go to the armory to get their health back if upgraded ^^

Go with Zone Troopers and APCs with riflemen. Those work wonders against Black Hand troopers. Just make sure to stay out of their flamethrowers' range. Also, unload infantry from severely damaged APCs.

I hate that mission..
In patched game its more difficult than it should
I got through it by sheer luck tho Zone Troopers and Snipers helped a bit.

That mission is easy and kinda funny. I completed the mission with everything that I got (ofcourse with Veterancy) and the mammoth tank will be better on Heroic veterancy. 4 of those and with all your units that you have build should make that mission done without problems

Yes this mission caught me off guard too untill i read up you can just rush the Northern Nod base with 6-7 pred tanks + engineer and enjoy having access to nod tech including turrets at your disposal that help greatly in this mission.

Once you have Nod tech you can tutrle for the rest of the mission without any pressure untill you are ready to attack with brute force the rest of Nod bases.
(While completely ignoring the MCV convoy , mission will still complete after destroying the bases and Nod never attacks the convoy at its starting point)

This tactic still works flawlessly on patched version too.
