This is another three player arena and its
going to be tough getting the win. The Layout of the map
is more or less straightforward, as long as you keep coming
back to the Courtyard you should be able
to keep your frag count high. One of the biggest problems
I have had on this map was spawning in bad locations or
right under one of dem bastards. Too bad both Daemia and
Hossman are excellent fighters. If you want to have any
chance at winning this one you have to get the rocket launcher
and keep your health up. Looking at the Courtyard
you can see that there is a red armor suit on the second
level. Perhaps it would be good to do a run from the first
Armor Area to the red armor. But that takes
too much time and does not allow you access to the rocket
launcher. The way I prefer is to rocket blast up there.
Yep you heard me, rocket "blast", this is you
basic rocket jump without the jump. It could hurt a little
more, but the benefit is full armor and since there are
also two health spheres in the Courtyard,
its well worth it. Just don't get caught by Daemia or Hossman
or your apt to be machine gunned into humiliation. If you
rocket jump you get excess air time, which can result in
your being rocket blasted down. (them cheating bots can
do the physics damn good!) The Armor Area
is an area to run through as quick as possible, preferably
jumping up and around to the rocket launcher. You want to
grab this item every time you can, since it is about the
only armor the bots go for. They will rocket jump to get
the red suit but only if they are bored. The Plasma Gun
Room is the place I seemed to spawn the most so it helps
to know the fastest way to grab all the items and get back
to the Courtyard. Taking the back route
is normally to be avoided, on the better games I rarely
left the Courtyard. If I did it was short,
usually only going to the first grouping of items.

The rocket launcher is best grabbed by dropping
down from the sides of the upper platform. And this is also
a great advantage for you. If you place yourself accordingly
you can see the bot coming, and since there is more then
an 80% chance that the bot will drop down to get the rocket
launcher, its time to turn this hole into a death trap.
Use splash damage to the extreme and leave nothing behind.
Then grab the newly spawned/dropped rocket launchers and
look for your next opponent. These are "free"
gibs in my opinion, since they are the easiest and most
rewarding. Take as many as possible. Also expect the other
bot to come from the left after the first bot has gone for
the rocket launcher. Though this is not always the case,
it happens a lot.
This is a place to complete and stop for the
day. Reward yourself once you finish this level.
