GDI Mammoth

The GDI Mammoth

  
This thing is BY FAR the best tank in the game and my favorite unit.  I got addicted to them back in C&C 3.  They are an absolute charm but beware Commanders, there is a hefty price tag on them.  You want firepower? I give you the Mammoth.  Folks, this is a thing of beauty and cannot say enough good things about them.  They run over infantry, crush through walls, make a living joke out of artillery AND leave nothing standing in it's path, do or die!!

These things work AMAZING when used in packs.  If you have lots of funds or spend a lot of time filling out free offers, then upgrading your Repair Time queue will be of great help, they are very expensive to maintain but are well worth it.  It's only real enemy is the anti-tank wall, the Rocket Fist and the Tank Trap, that's it.  It's best friend is its range; something that deadly with the range of a sniper spells total Annihilation!!  When clearing the rocket fists and neutralizing the wall with an upgraded Rifleman Squad will leave next to nothing standing.  If you want to invest in anything, invest in lots of Mammoths; you will not regret it!!

Special Upgrade:

The Battering Ram upgrade is pretty good!  At first I thought it made the tank look like a sissy but I don't think anything could make a quad-tread tank look like a sissy.  All it does is weaken anything that stands in its way, not just walls.  When given momentum, these things will do some serious damage to anything in its way but loses its effectiveness as it slows down.  Definitely a good buy once you have all the other researches done.

Mammoths are the reason why I still play this game.  They were so badass in C&C 3, these things, if you park one in front of a factory, will crush ANYTHING coming out of it...  Brand new tanks getting destroyed in a second.  Get as many as you can afford, they will NOT let you down, they are an alliance in themselves.
