Guide to playing in 爱丁堡 effectively
About 爱丁堡
Overview:爱丁堡 is a moderately small sized 地图, dominated by a large castle-type structure which is very similar to the one in 科隆. It was introduced relatively recently, named after the capital of Scotland, 爱丁堡, which is famous for its castles. This 地图 isn’t seen at 高等级, although it is a popular Save the Gold 地图.

死亡混战/团队对战
Close Quarters Combat
The open area below the castle parts of the 地图 provide a great battleground for close ranged combat. This, combined with several 道具 drop areas which are placed before and upon entering ensures intense squabbles for territory at all times.
A strong medium 底盘 along with a 炮塔 such as 冰风暴, 火焰炮 or 离子炮 will work very well, and access to extra 道具 will 帮助 you to survive for longer periods. Since 爱丁堡 is reasonably cozy, heavier 底盘 can also be used effectively, although travelling up the ramps up and around the castle can be time consuming. This strategy works better if you have a weapon that can defend yourself instead of bringing the fighttoyour opponents, such as 火龙珠, 轰天炮 or 滑膛炮.
“Camping”
In 死亡混战 and 团队对战, there are a couple of decent camping areas. The small but long 大小 of the 地图 means you will need to be either very defensive or fast enough to dodge attacks. Long ranged combatants love to take advantage of the hallways through the castle, so if you choose the latter route, be sure to look before you leap.
The main area to 黑色营地 is around the walkways around the top of the castle. You will have the advantage of the higher ground if you choose to sit around the ramps, allowing you to fire down on your 红队 as they try to advance. A mid-ranged weapon such as 轰天炮, 离子炮 or 火龙珠 along with a medium or heavy 底盘 is recommended. This will 允许 you to attack your 红队 from a 射程, while still being able to put up a decent defence against short ranged 炮塔.
The use of 地雷 is highly recommended as it will 允许 you to slow down or even completely 禁止红队 who are trying to travel up the ramps and walkways towards you. Remember to evenly spread out your 地雷, though. This will make it harder for a horde of 坦克 to get through at once. A neat trick is to intermittently 宇宙 the 地雷 along the lengths of the ramp;

Defence
When it comes to defending, both the red and blue 团队’s sides are basically identical in structure, leading strategies to be likewise identical. There are only 2 paths that attackers can use to get to both the red and blue 团队’s 旗子, so 守卫者 will need to sit around the middle of the base to be able to 控制 both access points. A couple of buildings provide decent cover in each base, and the ramp up onto the castle provides a good spot to pop up and 射击 across to the 其他 side of the castle, as well as 禁止 incoming attackers. This spot is best suited for a 高-powered 射程 weapon, but 激光炮's 高伤害 in conjunction with its lack of a need to stand still to fire make it the top choice for this spot.
地雷 are also very useful when it comes to stopping an attack effort. Use them on the ramp down from the castle and under the archway that leads out from within the castle. This will slow down and critically injure or destroy attackers, if not immediately destroying them.
Attack
There are two main routes of attack to the enemy’s 旗子 in 爱丁堡.
The first route is along the top of the castle and through one of the 3 paths. You will end up very close to the 旗子. However, this a commonly used path, therefore making it a predictable plan of attack. There will often be 守卫者 waiting near the ramp, as well as 地雷 laid out.
The second route is around the bottom of the castle and out through the archway at ground 等级. This is a more effective path, as 守卫者 will often be around the corner waiting for 红队 to come down the ramp, just out of sight. However, you may still come across the 其他团队’s attackers after they respawn and proceed to head through the castle back to your side. There is also a 高几率 of 地雷 being laid in this area.
Regardless of your attack strategy, a light 底盘 is essential for a fast getaway, along with access to 道具 to aid survival. It may be wise to have a heavier 底盘 nearby to 通行证 the 旗子 to, since quick 底盘 tend to be targeted more in an offensive situation.
控制点
爱丁堡控制点 has three 控制点. Points B and C are located in the 2 middle areas, while point A is located right in the center of the 地图, on the middle path of the castle. At the beginning of the 战斗, points B and C will most likely go to their respective 团队's side. The real 战斗 takes place around point A, where 战争 of attrition generally take place.
The tactics for close quarters combat mentioned under 死亡混战/团队对战 will apply here for the 战斗 to capture point A. Short 射程炮塔 are important, along with medium or heavy 底盘 to aid survivability. 道具 are highly useful here and a couple of 磁力炮 that know how to play can often be the difference between winning and losing.
