Um no, but it could be considered unfair.
Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

Let's see:
- both sides can do it
- you just walk behind a moving object
- the harvester is ment to be big enough for a player to hide behind it
- ...
Nope.

It could be considered unfair because in some maps you can follow harvester and get to more than one building than if you were GDI/Nod. However if both team mines the harv path than it could be fair again, but on a map in particular, you can follow it from two directions and so you have to waste twice as much mines Which is generally fine because it's a map that you don't have to worry about mining building entrances save for one, however the team already has an advantage so it really isn't the end of the world.

C&C City_Flying.mix seems to have equal entrances via harvestors, although, the AGT would probably shoot at you and make noise and cause an investigation compaired to the Obelisk. So really it is actually unfair because the Obolisk would only power up but not shoot a you and give away your position.

True. It actually has a lot on whose team you are on. Man isn't it annoying when you join a game and you hear: "GDI, or NOD Power Plant Destroyed?! And you see explosions everywhere, and your team is frantically trying to repair the building that you are in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that's why it's pretty impossible to say it's fair/unfair because there are so many different things that can be taken into account, but if you mine the harvester path it doesn't matter for either team, unless on the map in particular where you can follow the harv path from two directions and you have to spend twice as much c4. But it doesn't really matter that much because Nod is already at a disadvantage on that particular map

AGT will fire even if a SbH is behind a Harvester.
at this map SbH's are a good idea if the power or AGT is down. Before this happend they will get nailed. Uhm, sometimes it works to use a buggy and a sbh with nuke.... drive behind the barracks.. let the buggie blow. if you are lucky GDI ignore you behind the barracks and you can place your nuke when GDI is rushing... same is possible without SbH behind the Wf... but if your team doesn't work together... don't blow up the Wf at city.
usually you will loose that on publics by points.
Thanks.

I don't even know what you're talking about though, the AGT and obelisk won't shoot you if you're following the harv correctly, the only thing that might shoot you is the turrets on some map and that could be seen/heard so that's a disadvantage for GDI, i guess

Because in real warfare, you wouldn't get away with walking in behind an automated harvester... I guess. even if you were a SBH.

no realism please - no such thing as big giant laser beam that defends bases.
