A very dark map for most players can cause some rather funny sense
with the returning FCs entering the wrong base to cap. Only one way
into the inner base if the defence don't allow the use of the teleporter
(normally a very wise move). The main entrance to the flag room is
up a flight of stairs and you can guarantee to find the bulk of the
defenders here lying in wait for you. The flag room itself can also
be entered via the teleporter at the bottom of the stairs but only
if the button next to it has not been switched "on" otherwise an attacker
with less that 600 protection will "see the light" thanks to 2 laser
beams across the pad in the base. A backpack is a very useful item
to both defence and attack allowing 100 more cells to be carried for
the PS, which is stationed in each base. The outer base has the RA
and MH up on small towers, which are not easy to get at unless you
know a few tricks. Practice this part of the map thoroughly before
you dish out tactics as ignoring the MH and RA will cause two problems.
Firstly, the other teams will use them to their benefit and secondly,
you will die rather quickly. There are 4 ways out of the base with
one way not used by most because of being unaware of it. Between the
inner and outer base is a small blocked pipe of water leading straight
down. At the bottom of this pipe is a teleporter taking a quick route
to the same place but in a different base. Use this escape route for
FCs and cutting off FCs if they choose to go the longer routes back
to their base. The other ways out are again via teleporters on this
map but are nearer the ends of the base and will take those that use
them further away from safety when they spawn in their base. With
the defence looking down on attackers as they approach, attackers
will need to go in together to steal the flag otherwise they'll just
die too quickly if a defender is by these stairs. Get yourself tooled
up and be patient when attacking choosing the best time to approach
a defence.
