Note: It is recommended to read the main Applejack article first to become familiar with the names of key map locations used in this article.

General Strategy (All Classes)

Offense

  • The pathway to either team's Waste Area is a great way to attack the intelligence, before traversing through the Intelligence Yard's windows, as this area is often less defended than the other entrances.

Defense

  • Keep an eye on the Intelligence Yard windows, using the compression blast to repel Scouts and other fast-moving attackers attempting to infiltrate these routes.

Defense

  • Placing a Sentry Gun near the Waste Area can shut down any opportunities for Scout and other attackers from exploiting the route.
  • Placing a Sentry Gun on top of the storage building in the Main Battlements, because of its open nature, means that it will be destroyed easily by peeking Heavies, Soldiers, and Demomen.

General

  • Standing on top of the storage building in the Main Battlements to camp is ill-advised, as more mobile classes like Scout, Soldier and Demoman can easily attack you.

General

  • After a failed attack on the intelligence, the Intelligence Yard is a good place to retreat using the Cloak and Dagger if possible.
