Contents
Goal
Your goal is to capture the Control point and seize it for a duration of 3 minutes while stopping the other team from doing the same.
Locations
- The Center Shed - At the center of the map, a bombed-out shed houses the Control point. This building is open at both ends, and most of the roof is missing.
- The Farmhouses - Located directly in front of each team's spawn area, these large houses have two stories with windows and a roof overlooking the center shed.
- Side Sheds - Open at one end, these sheds contain a Medium Health Pickup inside.
Common strategies
- The center shed provides more cover for attackers than defenders. Capturing the point is easiest with support from team members outside the shed.
- Soldiers and Demomen can jump onto the roof of the shed with rockets or stickies and attack from above. It's also possible to lob grenades or syringes in through the roof.
- The peaked roof of the farmhouse can provide cover for Snipers if they stand on the back of the roof and fire over it at the enemy, but this prevents them from firing at the area between the farmhouse and the center shed.
- Snipers like to stay in the upper levels of their team's farmhouses. If you happen to be in the area, take a moment to sweep the upper floor for enemy Snipers.
- Scouts can double-jump to the middle shed and then across to the other team's building. This can be useful if the ground-level area is highly contested.
