*A good way to capture the flag or plant a bomb, is to grab a Warthog or a Hornet with two other friends. Make sure someone has a shotgun. Drive or fly to the invisibility an have one grab it too, then head for the enemies teleporter to their base. Park the Warthog or Hornet inside the small teleporter room for a quick getaway latter and grab the rocket launcher. With these weapons grabbing the flag or bombing the base should be easy. Go back though the portal with the flag, get into the getaway vehicle, and go to your base's teleporter room to score quickly (or to grab the bomb again), repeat for as may times as you can get away with it. | *A good way to capture the flag or plant a bomb, is to grab a Warthog or a Hornet with two other friends.

*An unknown but effective sniping spot is next to the trees on the other side of the Ghost, you can snipe anyone that takes the man cannon to get the [[TR/9 trip mine|trip mine]], Ghost or Laser. | *An unknown but effective sniping spot is next to the trees on the other side of the Ghost, you can snipe anyone that takes the man cannon to get the [[TR/9 trip mine|trip mine]], Ghost or Laser. | ||
*The toned-down Hornet is not a very good offensive platform on its own, quickly being dealt with by other vehicles like Banshee or Warthog turrets.

Use it to quickly transport teammates or quickly defend your base. If you do want to assault the opposing team's base, have a teammate use the [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]] for ground control. Your enemy will have to decide which target to focus on first, allowing the other to effectively take the threat out. A Scorpion can make short work of a Hornet. | ||
*Although the Hornet has been toned-down, it can still be invaluable in CTF and [[Assault]] games as the transport for the Objective carriers, because it is actually faster than the Standard Hornet. As such, use the Hornet as a support vehicle; provide some firepower support on enemies and try to keep the vehicle alive. | *Although the Hornet has been toned-down, it can still be invaluable in CTF and [[Assault]] games as the transport for the Objective carriers, because it is actually faster than the Standard Hornet.

*A fun and bold tactic is to charge up the man cannon with the fully armed warthog to splatter and shoot anyone defending to death, the passenger can grab the flag and you can easily escape by hitting the reverse. | *A fun and bold tactic is to charge up the man cannon with the fully armed warthog to splatter and shoot anyone defending to death, the passenger can grab the flag and you can easily escape by hitting the reverse. | ||
*You can slip a trip mine under enemy vehicles. In objective-based games such as Capture The Flag and Assault the enemy will no doubt grab a vehicle. You can take advantage of this to wipe out multiple players. Another tactic is when you see enemies charging towards your base to grab the Flag or plant a bomb, plant the trip mine at that spot. The mine will either wipe out an enemy or two's shields entirely or may kill them. | *You can slip a trip mine under enemy vehicles.

*The man cannons are useful as an attack strategy, instead of a movement one. Throwing [[grenade]]s into the cannon can toss them halfway past the map, or throwing them into the cannons near the bases is a good base assault tactic. [[M9 fragmentation grenade|frag grenades]] work the best, then [[Type-2 spike grenade|spike grenades]], and then [[Orgudam Workshop firebomb|incendiary grenades]], although the latter has to be edited onto the map with Forge. [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|Plasma grenades]] are the least effective due to their low area of effect. Trip mines are best there as if you are fighting someone on the man cannon, and have a trip mine in the base, you can force them into the cannon, and then toss a grenade into the cannon. This has a good chance of an easy kill. | *The man cannons are useful as an attack strategy, instead of a movement one.
