Grenadiers may be a basic class, not have much health, and are only for gdi, but dont look at it that way, the grenadier is way more powerful than you can imagine, and im not lying when i tell you i was playing the complex map, had a grendier,was in the tunnels, with 2 sakuras and an SBH shooting at me, i almost killed the sbh (he had about 30 hp left id say),and killed one sak, and slightly damaged the last one, then i got badely hurt and ran off.
The greandier has 3 things going for it.
1: its the most damaging (to tanks and infantry) first class you can get.
2: Its grenades arch and bounce off walls, so if somone is in a crows nest above you, you can still hit them, and if theyre behind a wall and so are you, you can bounce it off the ground or theyre wall to kill/hurt them.
3: They have area damage, which most weapons dont, and no basic class has (except the flamethrower but its not really area damage).
Somtimes i pass up on higher class characters even when i got money to use then grenadier because they have alot of pwer in them, ive killed people in 1 hit before , 1 hit to the head = instant death for everyone except 3rd class characters.

My main beef with grenades is that they lob. I like my weapons to go where I aim.
For example, I can't deal with those homing rockets, simply because they don't go where I aim. I'm too used to the regular rockets.
Similarly, after mostly using projectile weapons that go STRAIGHT, I can't get used to Renegade's grenades. The only prior experiance I have with grenades and FPSs is Counter-Strike, and the grenades are completely differant there...

The grenadier has a purpose even above those of 2nd third and 4th class characters, which is that its the only weapon that archs. I was playing GDI on the complex map yewsterday, there are crows nests above it, 2 sakuras where up there sniping off my team mates, i told 2 of my freinds and to etgrenadiers, and on 3 we would shoot to the top where they were, i was a gren as well, i said...1...2...3....SHOOT! and we launched about 6 grenades in 2 secounds and killed one sakura, heavily damaging another.
Grenadiers are not the most powerful class by any volume, but unlike any other 1st (basic) class character,they have a purpose which cannot be rivaled by a higher class character.

Sedan > All.
The grenedier is useful for some things, like an early rush on the Nod ref on C&C canyon. A full load of ammo will get you 250 points or so, and you can shoot from the comfort of that sniper spot.

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

The grenadier has its uses. It's hell on a harvester, the airstrip at field, power plant at Siege. Whatever happened to Gobi, Sands, and Siege?
Nevertheless, I wish I could be a tech or engineer 100% of the time.

So your opponents were completely abysmal at the game. That doesn't mean the grenadier is good at anti-infantry.

no, it isn't. Most damaging to tanks: engineer. Engineers can rape a vehicle if you can get close, or failing that you can at least delay their rush for moment while they reverse to avoid getting C4'd, giving those on your team who actually have weaponry more time to destroy them. Most damaging to infantry: overall GDI soldier.

big deal, they still don't do much damage
Grenadiers are good on Field for getting money quick, and for killing harvesters on field and cityfly. Other than that if you have no money or the barr is dead, you're much better off with a GDI soldier or engineer.

...Or the Uber 1337 S3d4n.
I prefer Gunner, since he's pretty cheap and actually useful...

Still not any less thankless. In fact it's more thankless since you often get blamed if the tank dies, as opposed to the driver being a shitty driver.
