Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

Sidewinder-
The player with the best defense will have to gaurd your flag. I recommend that the other player picks up a shotgun and Plasma Rifle. Load up into a Ghost, and head for the enemy base. If needed, drive the Ghost right into the base, if not, go trigger happy with your weapons. Snag the flag, and get out ASAP. Head back to base for a flag capture. Repeat until your enemies get smart enough. If you want a beefed up defense, steal the enemy's tank and use it to push your tank on top of the base (the on top of the doorway). Turn the tank so that the guns will be facing the wall (Sniper defense). Rotate the guns so that they face the other way and start firing.

Blood Gulch-
Park one of your ghosts in the back doorway of your base. Park the Warthog in the front doorway. Now, have one player get on the chaingun, or get on top of the base with a sniper rifle. The other player takes the remaining Ghost and assaults the enemy, going trigger happy with the shotgun/pistol/assault rifle/plasma rifle. Try and get their tank away from them.

Battle Creek-
Go gun crazy. It's a small map, so you should be able to catch up to you opponent before they get a flag capture. Watch the sides of your base and teleporter as well.

in sidewinder change your armor color too white and get a sniper and get near one of the bases but dont get in it get in the cliff closest and in battle creek stay underground but get in a position where your opponent cant really see you but if they come down there have a pistol and make sure you got plasma grenades

BG CTF: If you're on the blue team, drive your hog off the cliff next to red base for a suprise attack. If the opposing force is at mid-field while you're on the cliff, you have a good chance of not being seen. If you land the hog, drive and park right in front of the backdoor. Let your team mop up any enemies still at the base, then drive away with the flag. Drive over the enemie's porter while on your way to see if you can hit any players that pop out. Even if you don't get any, keep going. Park the driver's seat parallel to the entrance, so you can be right in the base when exiting, and score!

Have him guard mid-field, while you get the flag. Or vice versa, just pick the best mid-fielder of you two.

Well, there's a problem. Train him, and train him well! If he can't guard, then he can get the flag.

Ignore this neanderthal-istic troll. He knows nothing.

Put him in a vehicle and make it seem like he's going in for a flag capture. Grab an active camo and steal their flag while they go after your friend.

i was thinking more along the lines of creeping through the caves while he tries to get the rocketlauncher in a mad dash (always leads to death)

Mmm...a decoy...sounds fiendishly clever! Just use my strategy while your teammate is distracting them and score!
