Team Fortress Classic Hints
How do we protect the upper level for the snipers?
1 of 4: Keeping the snipers relatively protected is important since they are really the ones who will hold down external defenses. They will help prevent enemies from getting in and they will help the internal defenses by telling them who in fact did get in.
2 of 4: Since most players have to either worry about getting the flag or protecting their own, it really doesn't make sense to have another player class protect the snipers.
3 of 4: Instead, have one of the snipers protecting the others by pocketing him just outside the respawn door with his sight set on the doorway on the other end of the upper-level. That way, if anyone tries to get through that door, he can take the shot. If anyone weapon-jumps up on to the roof, he will usually have a shot at them too.
4 of 4: He should take shots at ANYONE who runs through the door, even teammates. Many times you will be lucky and catch a spy. Otherwise, your teammate loses a little armor.
