True, GDI does have superior weaponary at the basic start levels, but 
once the base gets fully built NOD can overpower them. If your friend 
attacks you with med. tanks, than your best defense to it is by placing 
gun turrents in stategic locations. Gun turrents are cheaper to repair 
than buying tons of light tanks. When those are built up, ob. light 
should be next and should be placed behind turrents. Your initial stategy 
in being NOD is to set up a defense with mostly stationary guns and 
walling in the base, so he has to come to the guns. Mammoth tanks can be 
beaten easily by ob. light or 4 flame tanks. When you build up enough 
force of stealth tanks and flame tanks(efficient against towers,adv. 
towers and men), be sure you unleash a nuclear attack to stun him.
