The entire ruined site was massive — about the size of a small village, stretching several miles in every direction.
To keep things fair, each Squad was allowed to choose their own entry point into the ruins. Squad 27, for example, decided to enter from Northern Gate Twelve.
This was done so that every team had an equal chance to reach the center.
If all the Squads had been forced to enter from the same spot, they would've started fighting right away — and the whole point of 'capture the flag' would've gone out the window.
By spreading everyone out, every Squad was given time and space to move, plan, and try to win without getting caught in a battle the second they stepped into the ruins.
By now, several Squads had begun their carefully timed formations.
Some were moving as coordinated triangles, others as stealth-focused pairs, some even perched on rooftops to scout the path ahead.
But then came the first boom!
