Significant changes from [[Battle Creek]] include, breakable glass roofs on the bases and ramps instead of ladders leading to the [[SRS99C-S2 AM|Sniper Rifle]] and [[M6C|Magnum]], which replaces the second Sniper Rifle. Two bases lie on opposite sides of this small map, separated by a small stream. Above the stream a giant rock walkway leads to a [[M19 SSM|Rocket Launcher]]. On the left side of each base a path leads to the upper portion of the map. On one side the path leads to a small cave housing a Sniper Rifle (Blue side), on the other side this path leads to another small cave which houses a Magnum (Red side). Upon exiting the cave with the Magnum a small ledge is visible which gives you access to the Rocket Launcher. The bases on this map consist of multiple entrance points. Each has an underground entrance out front and on the left sides that connect underground and lead up to the hallway that is accessed by the main front entrance. All hallways eventually lead to the main room which, depending on the game | Significant changes from [[Battle Creek]] include, breakable glass roofs on the bases and ramps instead of ladders leading to the [[SRS99C-S2 AM|Sniper Rifle]] and [[M6C|Magnum]], which replaces the second Sniper Rifle.

All hallways eventually lead to the main room which, depending on the game; will house either the bomb planting site or the flag. Both bases have two way [[teleporters]] at their rear. At both sides of the bases the roof can be accessed by either the rocks that are sitting there or by the stonewalls. Two glass windows are used to gain access to the base from the roof. One window is above a hallway near the lower entrance and the other is above the main room. | ||

There is one way to get out of the map, although it does no good. This requires two players, one with two [[Plasma Grenades]] and a [[Plasma Pistol]]. Position the second player on the left side of Red base (Not the side with Needlers) and place him in a corner between the ruin wall and the Rock wall. Charge the Plasma Pistol and release it. When the red bar (Under the Plasma Pistol) discharges half way, press LT as fast as you can. This should launch two Plasma Grenades at the other person. The first one will kill the player | There is one way to get out of the map, although it does no good. This requires two players, one with two [[Plasma Grenades]] and a [[Plasma Pistol]].

The first one will kill the player; the second will launch him through the wall. This works best in Split-Screen [[Multiplayer]]. | ||

The most popular spot and the absolute stupidest place to go is a tunnel on the left wall if you are looking at red base. There are a few Easter eggs here but there all pretty boring. You can snipe from here but you'll get killed by a rocket. There is a small cave on the end of the river that you can hide from and snipe out of but that is very temporary. if you manage to get on the tree you can snipe off there but its only good if you are willing to get spotted by everyone on the map. | |||
