*The map is a favorite for Team King of the Hill with a moving hill. This gametype pleases people with all preferences. Snipers can pick off and slow the attack of the enemy. People who like close range can charge in with a shotgun and assault rifle.

*An effective [[CTF]] offensive is to have someone drive your team's Scorpion around the bend to a good view point of your enemy's upper [[base]]. Also drive your team's Warthog up to the bend but not around it, in front of the Scorpion. Once in position, have the person in the Scorpion start firing at their upper [[base]] to distract their sniper. The 2 people at your [[base]] then travel through the center to the enemy's side of the center area, and stop. Also have another person use the Ghost and charge the enemy's [[base]]. When they come out to attack the Ghost, have your teams sniper and pick them off. Now the 2 people waiting can go grab the enemy's flag. Here's the part where you need the Warthog. Drive up to pick them up while the sniper, Ghost, Warthog, and Scorpion provide cover. Though elaborate, this maneuver can prove to be quite effective.

*As a warthog driver, avoid driving on the frozen ponds at all costs. The warthog will lose traction, be very difficult to control, and a sitting duck for other vehicles or opponents armed with heavy weapons. Even a skilled sniper can be devastating, first picking off the slow moving driver, then easy shots on the gunner and/or passenger.
