*The best place to stay in for this map is the central structure. Even though the player would have the higher ground as well as back up, there are four openings for the Covenant: the west ramp, the east ramp, the man cannon, and the tunnel leading to the upper deck. One might need to patrol around, but four could cover all entrances. | *The best place to stay in for this map is the central structure.

*Unlike most Firefight levels, | *Unlike most Firefight levels, there are five [[health pack]]s in the entire map and their locations are quite separated around the map. One is right next to the ammunition crate on the "Upper Deck", another is in the tunnel leading to "Upper Deck", the third one is on a wall directly ahead of the initial spawn area, one next to some green lights batons on the "Field", and the last one is in "Station 2 Interior". Having [[Drop shield]] as the [[armor abilities|armor ability]] would be a good idea. | ||
*The ODSTs are not invincible, and will die from too much fire. If you want them to be more contributive in defending the area, give them better weapons.

*The Warthog is useful in this large map, but don't drive into the tight spaces. Grenades and heavy weapons will destroy this useful asset if the Covenant are given the opportunity. Also watch out for the [[Sangheili]] and [[Jiralhanae]], since they can board and kill the ODST manning the turret. | *The Warthog is useful in this large map, but don't drive into the tight spaces.
