It's been my observation that NODdies can do nothing about a 'huge'
Mammoth Tank group.  Huge being anywhere from 5-10.

The only thing to do, is limit the tiberium that the other harvests.
Or try to destroy his Construction yard/Weapons Factory before
a huge mass can be assembled.

Also, a large group of Bazzooka men might make it interesting, but
Mammoth tanks have the missles also, that does a fair job
against people.


Those Mammoth Tanks are so damn slow, its pretty funny when you have a
mass and just march it into the opponents city.  Really, nothing
they can do but hope their obelisks and recon bikes can take out a few
before the contruction yard goes BOOM!

PS  Remember, for each Mammoth tank an opponent builds, you can build
an obelisk and a recon bike, or 3 recon bikes.  A mass attack of bikes
will damage a group of Mammoth tanks, but I still think Mammoths tank
will win, with the ratio of 1 tank to 3 recon bikes.
