It's generally wise to have an entire squad on the flag when capturing it, as enemy troops can spawn on 3 sides. The southernmost MEC spawnpoint and closest to the USMC's uncapturable flag, the flag is situated in front of a hotel's front door, and is accessible by ladders on either side, or the most direct and fastest route, the stairs in front. There is one at the gas station, and another near the building at the northwest spawn.The TOW is located at the northwest spawnpoint.There is one LMG at each of the spawn points.As most servers prohibit spawn trapping except for destroying commander assets, there is rarely any action in the area surrounding the actual gas station. Spawning at the two front points, the US team may attack the Hotel on either side, or send team members into the mountains or alley where they can continue on to the critical Suburb or Train Accident, respectively. The starting uncap flag for the USMC, there are three spawn points for it - one at the very south of the map (where most US vehicles are located), and two to the northeast and northwest.
