Left side has better set up area and quicker route to gambit. Left side also has access to gambit in a locked Turbolift. Very long lines of sight on this map. Have to shoot through multiple doors, but it has been known happen. Doors play an important role on this map. Map should play at an average speed. "play 6 rounds."

Perhaps I should use different colors for each side but I think the idea is there. The south west corner of the landing pad and behind the low cover crates are typical approaches to gambit for right side. I think a super stealth squad would have a decent chance on this map, also anyone wanting to play door games. The maintenance tunnels can be good if they offer a direct route to enemy commanders. Otherwise they are a waste of time.

The right side is so horrible that nobody will ever take it so you need to have a squad plays well from the right side. I almost never see this map used anymore. The damming thing about it is not how open the right side is but how hard it is to get into gambit from the right side. There is only one square outside of the main building that is in gambit. And it is Horribly exposed. All the safe squares of the right side of gambit are actually easier to get to from the left side. Even with super stealth I think a squad would struggle on the right side of this map due to 10 point gambit. You essentially will have to concede gambit first round and then have a way to go dig them out of gambit.
