I think I do remember this mission... if you try to go through the
south entrance to the NOD base, you get trashed by the obelisk and
flamethrower and bazooka guys... one thing I tried was creating a
diversion by attacking their harvester - there's a tiberium field at
the upper left corner of the map where the NOD harvester always seems
to be... I massed my troops just outside of the base by the south
entrance, and then attacked the harvester in the upper-left corner
with a few infantry.  As soon as you attack with the infantry, all of
the NOD troops in the base will head out through the north entrance to
the base to protect the harvester.  If you move fast, you can take out
the obelisk with a few grenadiers, and then work on destroying the
construction yard

May not be the best strategy ( I do remember spending quite a while on
this mission), but it worked for me... I'm trying to win GDI without
any cheats, but it's getting tough...
