This map is a Railgunners paradise! If you stick to the surface areas and have precision Railgun aim you should be able to rack up frags and a steady rate, but if your Railgun aim is a little lacking you may want to fall back on the Rocket Launcher or the Shotgun to generate your kills. The Heavy Armor is below the Railgun, or you can walk around to it from the mid level. The Armor is on the opposite side of the map just below the Rocket Launcher. You can climb the stairs or use the bounce pad at the end of the base level to grab the Railgun, but both these routes can be deadly if a talented Railgunner is sitting a top this area. The Shotgun is near the Rocket Launcher, just drop down on the side away from the Armor. The Plasma Gun is on the surface area just below the Railgun.
The bots here are pretty skilled with the Railgun and you?re going to need to be equally sharp with it or pretty adept with the Rocket Launcher to beat them down on harder settings. Most of the time the bots are too busy tangoing with each other that they forget about hoarding the armor, keep this in mind and rely on it to pull ahead. Doom, Cadavre, and Bones compose the bot posse here, typically Doom?s Railgun skills make him the bot to beat.
Against human opponents this map is going to be a test of your Railgun skills you?re your ability to mix it up and brawl well with the Shotgun and Rocket Launcher. The base and mid levels are well suited for the Shotgun, while the surface area is owned by skilled Railgun application.
