Does anyone know if there are any map specific guides?
Obviously, while it isn't recommended to use power weapons against weaker opponents like grunts and jackals, I have found that on Alpha Site, due to it's small area, there are often plenty of opportunities when using power weapons on weaker opponents potentially be beneficial, or have no negative affect anyway.
Due to a seeming abundance of Fuel Rod Guns, wielded primarily by Spec-Ops Grunts, along with Brute Chieftains, often you can afford to use some ammo to kill a few opponents, and collect more ammo from dropped Fuel Rods to restock your ammo anyway.
However, for using power weapons in general, trying to use them on a maximum number of opponents in one shot will obviously yield the greatest advantage. For example, if you have a Sniper Rifle, and there's several brutes grouped up, try to take your shot only when there are at least two Brutes lined up in your line of fire, to inflict higher amounts of damage at no extra cost to yourself. There are times when I have found myself using power weapons to kill individual enemies, even weak ones, which is overall just a waste. After all, if a weaker weapon can be as effective with the same number of shots, use the weaker weapon.
