-There are two respawn rooms; one is near the Flag Room, and the other is near the Balcony. The transparent floor will heal you to the max, repair your armour to 100%, and give you max ammo. The backpack in respawn contains grenades. In the back of the respawn room is a teleporter that leads to the other respawn room. They're very useful for catching up to an enemy with your flag.

 Attackers should focus all of their efforts on hitting the button. They shouldn't attack defenders unless they're in the way. Remember: the button only needs to be touched in order for the gate to go down.

 Defenders will want to prevent attackers from hitting the switch in the first place. Pipe Traps, HWGuys in corners, and Soldiers posted everywhere (especially right in front of the switch) is an effective way to prevent attackers from hitting the switch in the first place. Grenades of all types are effective, as the area is very small, assuring that a target will get hit by a grenade no matter where they are.
-Snipers can be effective on the catwalk overlooking the Lower Corridor. Even if a Sniper doesn't kill a person running thorugh the passage, his laser dot scanning the floor and ground can scare off other attackers, making them run through the Perilous Passage, where your other defenders can slaughter them. If your Sniper manages to make a few kills or tag a few people running through, the more the merrier.

 Defenders should note that attackers like to split up between this area and the Perilous Passage in order to open the gate or grab the flag; make sure there's always at least one person that can get here quickly.

 The Balcony is the main spot for Snipers. It's elevated window makes it easy to duck to avoid rockets and nails, yet still get effective shots on enemies. The nearby respawn room makes it easy to resupply if you take a hit or two, or run out of ammo.

If you're an Engineer, try to have a filled [[Dispenser]] placed near the area that connects the Balcony and Flag Room. An enemy will likely run touch it, giving you a chance to blow it up (and the attacker). If not, occasionally take a glance into the Balcony and see if somebody is coming.

 Attackers should frequently use this passage to get to the flag. Concjumping and similar movement techniques (such as [[Pyro Jump]]ing) should be used to clear the passage before defenders can catch up to you. If somebody tries to attack you, run by them. An extended fight in the Perilous Passage will drain a lot of your armour and health, making it very difficult to grab the flag.

 =Description=
-Blah.
+Openfire takes place in a small field, where Red and Blue have decided to dirty up their new secret bases with a game of CTF. Unlike other CTF maps, a gate blocks the flags. In order to get the gates to open, somebody must run up to a switch in the Laser Control room. The gates will only stay open for 30 seconds, which forces attackers to work together and move quickly in order to capture the flag.
