*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. | *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]].

*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. | *As a warthog driver, avoid driving on the frozen ponds at all costs.

*A good strategy during a game where sniping weapons such as the sniper rifle and the pistol are only allowed is have 2 team members in a ghosts and a standard or rocket warthog and to have 2 to 4 members of your team at the ledge which is facing the enemys base . The ghosts and the warthog will provide suppressive fire at the two front doors and the snipers on the ledge can stop any enemies fron climbing to the top of the base and using the portal on the roof. Right now your enemy should be distracted by your allies, during this time use the portal on the ledge to get into the enemy base along with your sniper allies to establish control of the roof. Now you can easy bombard the enemy with grenades from the roof and easily steal the flag as the enemy should be in panic. This will only work if sniping weapons are available and warthogs and ghosts are available. If there are any heavy weapons available than this strategy will be upset. | |||
