Rushing is a very simple but favored tactic that is mostly used by commanders of the Brotherhood of Nod (Note: GDI and Scrin use this tactic too sometimes, but not as good as the Brotherhood does). It is used to peform a surprise attack on a base with a small army before the enemy can set up their defences. The Nod Militia's and Rocket militia's are the most favoured units for this strategy, as they are cheap and fast to produce.
