Stratigies for Each Map in Online Play

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nottingham

It's pretty much basic knowledge at Nottingham, so I'll make this one quick. Just get a group of your team mates and head for the top level of the middle tower. Protect the laark spawn and use the grenade spawn to your advantage. Blow up the barrels and sit near the fans to prevent people from comming up. Use the auger/auger shield for the catwalks.
Again, Nottingham is pretty easy.

*This applys for 8P, 16P, 32P and 40P Nottingham*

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Manchester

Manchester 8

It seems the best spot on this map is in the very center building, with the hole in the side and the 40 spawn inside it. Everyone just pretty much charges that part, if you control it, you control the game. Do not abuse the .40 mm grenade and just blast someone when they walk up the stairs, save it for when a group comes up. The sniper rifle spawns on the bottom floor, use that with a team mate holding your back.

Manchester 16

Most people would suggest going straight for the back wall, however, the best place to get in the game, is the center courtyard. You can have a sniper on the top balcony, someone sniping the front street from the 40 house, someone watching the front entrance, someone protecting the rear entrence, and someone keeping an eye on the underground passage way.
Just make sure you have someone at every point that is open, and you can't loose.

Manchester 32

I've played this map plenty of times before, and I just hate it All people do is snipe and then quit!
But what I do is stay with my team and control the two circular buildings. Also have some of your team mates sniping in one of the opposite buildings across from eachother.
Not much else to say about this map, its more of a "whoever has the bigger group wins" kind of map.

Manchester 40

THE CHURCH
It is the key place to control, you can snipe almost anywhere on the map, and all the noobs just rush up to the top, just take them out. Be sure to keep a very keen eye on your radar (if you're human). You'll know if theyre below you, and what way they're comming up.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Somerset

Somerset 8

All I can really suggest here, is have a few of your team mates run after the middle, while you snipe from one of the catwalks. The opposite teams players almost always spawn on one of the two far sides of the map, depending on which side you are on.

Somerset 16

Take advantage of sniping, this is one of my favorite maps to snipe at. If you take the wall on the end of the ditch, with your team spoting you of course, you can see people comming from all angles.
Another good one is to take the very center of all the catwalks, the top floor.
You can use your radar to tell if they are below you, drop down, kill them, go back up, repeat

Somerset 32

The very best place to control in this map, is the passage between the 16 player map and the 8 player map. Once you clear them out of the 16 player map part, they just keep spawning back there, wait untill they come out, and own them .
Be careful though, keep an eye on the catwalks, they could go up there with a laark, and own you have someone in your squad go up there and keep an eye on it.

Somerset 40

I would suggest the same thing as on the 16 player map, take control of the center. Keep your squad spawning around there and you should be set for the game. Also, abuse the snipers a bit

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Grimsby

Grimsby 8

Pretty easy, take the outside of the garage. Out side you have the following weapon spawns, arc charger, bullseye, auger, AFG, carbine and laark, every weapon you would need for any situation you run into.
There are only 2 possible ways for them to come to the outside, through the garage, and one of the side doors, have someone keep watch on both of them.

Grimsby 16

The giant room where the flag spawn is for CTF is key for this map. As long as you can keep an eye on every entrance, you will not loose. The arc charger, frag grenade, carbine, and AFG all spawn in there, so you should be set with ammo, also, the auger spawns in the room next to it.

Grimsby 32

The busyard part of this map is definently the way to go, if you stay behind busses, they can't laark you or anything. It's also one of the key spawn points of the map, so you don't have to worry about spawning too far away when you die. Also, the AFG spawns back there, use it to block off the little entrance way to the busyard.
The only real threat to this, is, in the window in the building, where people usually try and auger down, just take him out with an easy target bomber.

Grimsby 40

You don't usually get this map often in ranked games But when you do, grab an auger, and head for the room near the main hall way, its normally the most crowded area and you will get some easy auger kills.
Theres not really much to do with this map, it's most a "whos group is bigger" kind of map, again.

*no more 8, 16, 32 or 40's to do!!! *

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Busyard 16

For this map, most people just rush for the top, the top is key, but watch the bottom as well!
Whenever i play the busyard in customs or ranked, i take the bottom of the garage. I almost always have the most kills, use the airvents to your advantage, and get a head start on them by shooting down, then suprise them and get the kill.
Also, make sure to use the sniper to your advantage, this is a great sniping map!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Mall 32

The best strat for this map would have to be taking control of the back patio, you can snipe there, get some good grenade kills, or my personal favorite, the hallway of auger masters! The catwalk leading to balcony is practically a free kill. Once they're there, theres nowhere they can go, and the auger is right there, its like it was ment to be.
The sniper also spawns on the lower level in the snow.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

U.S.S. Lexington 32

Easy, snipers + level ground = easiest headshots ever!
It's also easy to get headshots with any weapon here, the best thing to do is go on the top and stay there, control either side, but don't try running up the middle because you WILL get killed.
I wouldn't recomend going on the bottom level, by the time you walk from your end to theirs, atleast 4 people will have spawned infront of you a long the way.
Sniping is deffinently your best bet here, although, all the noobs pretty much just camp the sniper spawn the whole time, so good luch getting ahold of one.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hanger 32

At the hanger, your best bet is to snipe, obviously. My personal favorite spots to do so, are 1. On the back wall behind the side block, all the way at the end of the wall. 2. From the very back of the map, where the carbine, hedgehog and arc charger spawn.
The best strat for this map is to take the highest hanger, and also have some guys on the ground around it. It's harder for people to snipe up there and throw grenades, its easier for you. Theres also only one spot to come up, the airvent, if you have a team there, they wont even be able to laark all of you

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Subway 8

Personally, the subway is my very favorite map, theres always one constant spot where people go, and if you're in the right position, you can just mow them down one by one.
The best place to go is obviously on the top floor in the back. The laark, carbine, auger, and air fuels all spawn back there, so you're safe.
Also, if you're low on health, just go in the little room and let your team mates take care of them for a while.
BLOW UP THE BARRELS FIRST
When ever I play ranked games at the subway, I'm almost guaranteed two easy seven kill ribbons, one from the first round and one for the second. I just about never die there, but when i do, it's probably because i forgot to blow up the barrels in the back first make sure you take care of that.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thames 8

This map, really has no strat at all, . The best thing i can tell you, make friends with augers and grenades, because they're ganna be comming at you with shotguns, a lot.
I would suggest going for the very back part of the map, where it's all flat land and you can see them come in from every direction.
Just make sure you have someone guarding every entrance, especially the air vent, you cant see them coming untill they're there.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rooftops 32

Without a doubt, the best place to control in this map, the flat rooftop, the one with all the vents and chimneys on it.
You got the street leading up to it in the back, have someone camp there and just take out anyone who tries to come up, 2 hedgehop spawns and and arc charger spawn back there.
The front street with the airvents leading up, same thing there, make sure no one goes up the air vent, stay near the grenade spawn and take them out from far away with a target bomber.
The middle street, usually the busiest place on the map, throw some AFG's down there for some easy kills. The laark also respawns on the smaller roof right next to the tall one, grab it, and you can take out they're whole group on the other side of the map
P.S. Im not suggesting you become a laark whore

I'm pretty sure thats all, I'll go do a quick check now

But hopefully the information was helpful to you.
