On top of the bases are several fortifications along with [[Mongooses]] and a single Machine Gun Turret behind sandbags. These serve to discourage attackers along with the presence of the Spartan Laser.

There is also an [[Active Camo]] power-up near both bases, next to each team's [[Rocket Launcher]], and when used effectively one can get into a base, take everyone out and get the objective in or out. Note that the rockets have been reduced to one magazine in order to make the map more balanced. The two bases each contain [[Battle Rifles]], an [[SMG]], grenades, a [[Brute Shot]], a [[Mauler]], an [[Assault Rifle]], a [[Magnum]], and a [[Shotgun]]. There are also two [[Needlers]] near the [[Bubble Shield]] (one for each missile silo) and a few [[Spikers]] scattered around the map.
