Counter-Terrorists
The water and secondary bombsite are difficult to reach, but there are several ways to reach them. An audacious person can jump down from the suspension bridge and make his way from there. Only do this if you are quick to the bridge (before any terrorists arrive). It might make more sense to jump into the water from the primary bombsite. This may be less risky, but be careful of any other terrorists near the double doors. If you're in the water and you take fire, move to the left and hide behind a gap for cover. The stairs are another possibility, but do not take any chances by wandering there alone! So quickly jump into the water whenever you get the chance to. The stairs by the primary bombsite is an excellent place for cover and to pick off any terrorists coming to plant the bomb.

For a CT, the AWM is one of the best weapons when attacking from the suspension bridge. You have great cover behind the boxes or the wall and you have a great view to attack the terrorists from above. Remember to guard or have someone else guard the stairs that lead up from the water, on you're right. If you do not guard it, you will take attacks from there. For good cover, hide behind the back box. There you have a good escape route and enough cover not to be blown away. If you cannot buy a long-range rifle or AWM, take a good handgun of sub-machine gun and locate yourself in the corner of the loft. In this corner, you'll have maximum coverage and you can attack any terrorists coming from the opposite side.

The double doors area is another focus of the map. This is the hardest choke-point to beat.
The double doors and primary bombsite are mandatory to cover from any terrorists. 75% of the time the bomb is placed by the primary bombsite, so watch out for terrorists there. I would suggest moving along the topside and the other pair of wooden doors to reach the primary bombsite. You can also take the route from the secondary bombsite and up the stairs and wait there for any terrorists making there way to the double doors or primary bombsite. It is easier to take a position at the primary bombsite because terrorists rarely creep from behind. At the primary bombsite take a good position with a good cover and a good view to guard the double doors. To weaken terrorists, throw a grenade by the double doors if there is a sudden rush.

Frag Hints
» As a terrorist, jump into the water and run up the stairs for many frags. Here you can sit and wait while looking at all of the paths and attack from the rear. An alternative is to rush across the suspension bridge to the primary bombsite the long way via the CT base. However, this alternative can be dangerous and is not suggested. Be sure to watch your flanks whenever you go out in the open near the primary bombsite quad.

» As a CT, get a quick-firing rifle and try to surprise your opponents from the rear. This is best performed by jumping in the water directly from the bridge and wading to the terrorist base. It would make sense to rush up the stairs immediately if your opponents are fast. However, the terrorists take their time so I recommend taking the route through the T base and clear the area by flanking.

Sniping/Camping Locations
» The T/CT loft makes a nice place to camp or snipe. If you want to snipe, I suggest you take cover behind one of the boxes or a corner at the back. There you have an escape route and it is harder for the opposing team to pick you off. If you want to camp, take a corner by the entrance and surprise any rushing T/CTs.

Though this hiding spot is predictable, it may catch a few people off guard.
» If you are a terrorist, you can make a nice position in the big box. In the big box you can wait (a while) for any CTs coming from the water to the terrorist base. This box provides both good cover and a nice hiding place if you are a terrorist. I suggest you either buy a quick-firing gun like a MP5 Navy or an AK-47.

» You can get a good sniping position if you are a good rusher. With your knife make your way to the primary bombsite to the two boxes in the right hand corner. Take out your Scout or AWM and snipe off any terrorists coming from the double doors.
