*All in all, the best way to win on this map is to stick together, play like a team, and use as many vehicles as possible. It is also fun to do large jumps off the top of the island and have the tanks below take potshots at you as you fall and die. | *All in all, the best way to win on this map is to stick together, play like a team, and use as many vehicles as possible.

It is able to take out Banshees and Ghosts, especially in Team Games where they are likely to be in dogfights. Also, it can be give cover fire to a teammate fleeing an enemy, although since the Sniper Rifle spawns next to the teleporter, the Shade is of dubious value. | ||
*In Free-For-All slayer, a good tactic is to go through the banshee teleport, grab the Sniper Rifle, and camp near the [[Fuel Rod Gun]] spawning point. It's a good vantage point, and makes picking off enemies relatively simple. If a vehicle shows up, you have the fuel rod to counter it, and you can drop into the cave and behind the rock for cover. | *In Free-For-All slayer, a good tactic is to go through the banshee teleport, grab the Sniper Rifle, and camp near the [[Fuel Rod Gun]] spawning point.

*Often, the drivers of the Scorpion will back into the ocean to prevent being blindsided. But this makes the vehicles very hard to access for teammates if the driver is lost.

*A useful trick for modes with 4 Ghosts spawning per team is to take the enemy Ghost that spawns behind the Banshees and drive it off the cliff. If you successfully land, it is then a fairly simple matter to drive into the base, splattering anyone getting in the way, and take the flag. The Ghost's high speed also makes it the perfect flag transporter. | |||
