Last, Great Britain because stationed at tops off cliffs can be very effective against infantry. France, because placed at choke points can create an almost impregnable defense or attack. Germany, because if your are playing a soviet opponent the TD is effective against the tank rush. Korea, because it is easily to fly them around the map and avoid anti-air.

All of the starting points are located on the outside ring, with the exception of one in the second tier or mountains.

There are three levels of cliffs: the highest level is the outside ring, then the middle ring and then the middle is the lowest part of the map.
