More Blood Gulch antics
BiBoFieTo sent in information about using jeeps as flag defense on Blood Gulch. Using some of the techniques described recently, or a combination of rocket launchers and grenades (if other vehicles aren't available as ramps), you put a Warthog on the roof of your base... then drive it down onto the flag. (Alternatively, you can block the lower entrances to the base by pulling it around the corner once it's inside - you still have to watch for folks climbing over (or dropping down from above), but the chain guns might help...) He sent in digital camera pics, but they weren't much different from what's been seen. He also passed along a pair of images showing a little-known sniper location:
From the blue base it looks like a steep trangular face of the cliff (bloodgulchsniperbottom.jpg). Simply walk up and snipe (bloodgulchsniper.jpg).
This is a different location than the sniper spot mentioned in the recent Multiplayer Guide update at Bungie's Truth and Reconciliation site - that one is behind the red base, in the shadows, and has cover to hide behind. BiBo's is at about 2 o'clock (if you're IN the blue base, looking towards the red base), and is wide open - but you've got a nice field of fire.
