depends on the situation/server but i think sbh are the best specially if you have a sniper rifle.
but hotwire/tech is good if you are going in someone's apc so you can repair it.

stealth black hand are the best in most situations for obvious reasons
however, in the case of a map where your side is dominating the other, you might want to buy a visible but better character to beacon with, like the laser chaingunner, mobius, chaingun officer or patch.
plus what you said in the other topic about patch being able to see stanks better than all others....I don't think this is true; the distance is hard coded into the game, and I used to think chaingun officers could see SBH further than all other infantry till I found out I was wrong. (I DO think the officers for both sides should see them from further because they are supposed to be experienced soldiers)

My favorite is a technician in a stank. This combination gives you many options to destroy a building or two. If we are talking infantry only though, I would have to say the sbh. On gdi I prefer to use a hotwire with the intent of destroying the building with C4. If I needed extra fire power I would switch to a chain gun. The trick to setting nukes and ions is to have cover and try a mass setting party. 45 seconds is a long time when your all alone!!! Plus, if you fail you give the enemy 300 easy points. I cant tell you how many games at Hourglass we take out the PP right off the bat. Then loose after the time limit because everyone wants to nuke and snipe instead of flame rush.

***NOTE: If you play as GDI, the Humvee is able to go inside buildings while the Buggy can't. This makes quick and safe access for you and your vehicle. Just plow right through with a Buggy/Humvee along with some Artys/Meds and the enemy won't have enough time trying to fight off the tanks squishing them and stopping you at the same time.

That is so frowned-upon in nine servers out of ten. Not against any rules that I've seen, but people tend to get really cheesed off when someone does that.
