Phoenix Gate Scenario

Scenario Type: Capture the Flag
Size: 12 Vs 12
Time Limit: 15 minutes
Victory Conditions: 500 points

Scoring: 75 points for each flag capture, 2 points per player kill.

Overview

This is another classic battle of Capture the Flag, with each side holding a single flag. You need to grab the enemy’s flag and bring it back to your flag, which must be sitting in its home spot, to earn points. You can gain victory points with player kills, but it takes flag captures to win before the time limit expires. The terrain is set up so the direct route to its flag is down the middle (very risky because everyone can see you and it’s easy for them to engage you). Side routes along the borders offer unique opportunities and challenges

Tip: Don’t be afraid of dying in scenarios. You will, but there’s no penalty if you’re killed by a player.

Intended Mechanics

 

  • Pick up the enemy flag and carry to drop point

Tip: Keep an eye on that flag at all times and drop the enemy flag to the right spot.

Order & Destruction Strategy

The number-one rule: Work together as a team. If you go running off on your own, you simply weaken the group’s strength in numbers.

Group up and move as one at the middle of the map to fight the enemy. Keep an eye on your flag. At this stage there two outcomes

  1. You are winning so you push up to enemy war camp – take flag and 2-3 people carry /escort back to base or
  2. You are loosing and you are the ones inside the war camp

If you are the ones inside the war camp, try and keep the enemy busy and send 2-3 man from the side to either steal their flag if they are not running it and drop it off at the mid point at the bridge or kill their carrier.

If they are moving as one with the flag.. and you cant beat them in combat … oh well.. best of luck on the next one!

Tip: You can drop the flag in the mid point at the bridge for less points.. better from nothing if you are under pressure and risk of dying / losing the flag.

Best Winning Strategy

Move as a group and fight in the middle. Use the bridge / water to your advantage.

Send 1  melee to capture the enemy flag using the side routes (Left / Right)

If they spot them, the enemy group will have to split if not you score points. Use that opportunity when the enemy group splits to kill many and then support your carrier.  Do not panic and split up first.

Melee runner are better as they can use charge and flee to run faster.
