*A good strategy is to wait until about 20 or less seconds is left in the oppenents score zone and to go inside with another team member and designate one person to remove the defenses while the other removes and throws the flag out of the score zone
 
*A effective defense is to have 1 person with armour lock to stay back and protect the collected flags

==Trivia==
====Collecting Power Seeds====
*The only known maps that support this gametype are Powerhouse, Swordbase and Zealot
At the start of the game, a group of power seeds (nine by default) spawn at a neutral area between the two bases. Players from both teams must compete to bring the power seeds back to their bases, where there is a station for players to deposit power seeds. Players can steal power seeds from the opposing team's station, but there is a lengthy interaction time (7 seconds by default) to steal a power seed from a station. Players in the opposing team are also notified of any power seeds being stolen from the station.
*Stockpile has been labled as the Stepson or Spiritual Sucessor to Capture the Flag and Territories
 
While carrying a power seed, a player cannot fire their weapons or sprint, but they can throw the power seed. Players can move power seeds on the ground using the [[Repulsor]] or pick one up from afar using the [[Grappleshot]]. Furthermore, two power seeds can be attached to the back of the [[M15 Razorback]]. Any power seeds that have fallen off the map or have been untouched for too long would return to it initial spawn location.
 
====Scoring====
Upon depositing five power seeds, the power seeds in the station disappear, "powering up" the base and scoring a point the team. Additional power seeds (six by default) then spawn at another neutral area on the map, allowing both teams to compete for more power seeds.
 
====Victory Condition====
By default, Stockpile games are 15 minutes long, and the team with the most points at the end wins. If there is a tie, the game enters overtime, and the team that first scores the next point wins the game.

Points are not awarded instantly when the flag carrier drops the flag on the capture points; there is a timed countdown of sixty seconds on each capture point and successfully holding the capture point as well as the flag after the countdown will award the winning team points.The team that scores 10 flags first or the most flags in the 10 minute time limit wins.[1][2]

Players from both teams must compete to bring the power seeds back to their bases, where there is a station for players to deposit power seeds. Players can steal power seeds from the opposing team's station, but there is a lengthy interaction time (7 seconds by default) to steal a power seed from a station. Players in the opposing team are also notified of any power seeds being stolen from the station.

While carrying a power seed, a player cannot fire their weapons or sprint, but they can throw the power seed. Players can move power seeds on the ground using the Repulsor or pick one up from afar using the Grappleshot. Furthermore, two power seeds can be attached to the back of the M15 Razorback. Any power seeds that have fallen off the map or have been untouched for too long would return to it initial spawn location.

Upon depositing five power seeds, the power seeds in the station disappear, "powering up" the base and scoring a point the team. Additional power seeds (six by default) then spawn at another neutral area on the map, allowing both teams to compete for more power seeds.
