Hilarious strategy I thought up, The stealth generator rush Options

[Scary Monster]

This works like magic against the CPU and perhaps even against humans too if they neglect to make a mobile sensor array early.

Everyone knows the Subterranean APC engineer rush as Nod. It's a good idea to have an obelisk ready to plant the moment you capture a building.
However, if you have the tech to make a subAPC or obilisk, you also have the tech to make stealth generators. Have one of those ready and place it instead of an obelisk and the building you capture will vanish. If you still have engineers left over, you can freely capture and sell his radar (or war factory) so he can't counter with an MSA.
So long as the building you took stands, you can place a Hand of Nod next to it and pump out engineers. Every building you capture will vanish under the cloak.

If he has lots of defence structures you can freely build lasers or whatever in his base under the cloak. If they get too damaged, deactivate them so they recloak while you repair them as you build more. Just make certain you capture and sell either his radar or war factory to prevent him making a MSR.

If he's smart, he's already walled off his contruction site, but you should be able to cripple him anyway and have time to make rocket soldiers to punch a hole in that wall.
What do you think?

Well u can do a simmerler ting on FS but what u do is walk to there base with mobile stelth genorators and when u do the stealth genorator place ing in his base u sneak your near by mobile stealth genorators and place them as a back up for if they destroy your main cloaking device.

If your opponent isn't looking (like if he's micromanaging a scout) when you plant the stealth generator, it will confuse him very badly and work perfectly if you plant your stealth gen the very instant you make the first capture. He might just think you simply sold the building you took and might not immediately figure out why he heard "Building Captured"
But you're right. Chances are, he'll hit 'H' right away when he hears your subAPC surface and the "Building Captured" announcement and might see what you are doing just in time. I never really suspected this would work against strong players, but if you pull it off, even if it's just against a new or weak player, the hilarious flood of "WTF"'s and accusations of cheating in chat would be well worth the risk.
I think this bizarre tactic might even work otherwise just because it's really weird and unexpected.

You gotta give me points for originality though.
