1.Setup a level 3 sentry at B
2.Cap point and head toward E through the tunnel near C.
3.Setup sentry,dispenser and teleporter at the bottom and when they enemy tries to block the capture they die!
Probably my most effective strategy on Steel that wins 70% of the time on a pub.

As long as there isnt anyone at B to being with. It only takes a single guy to throw this entire strategy off. I always build a sentry at B, both on offense and defense. I like defeating this strategy Its worth trying, even if just for a quick cap a B.

While an engineer can't normally jump to the final point, by building a dispenser and jumping from the top, they should be able to make it. Covered by a sentry...

I'm talking about setting up a sentry in the little tunnel near C so that it is covering E.
It can and will kill anyone trying to block the capture.

Perhaps we're talking at cross-purposes!

The final capture point at Steel can't be reached by any class except for soldier, medic, demoman and scout, because the jump is too large for anyone else. (In fact, it's very, very hard for medic...)

One nice way to instant-win Steel is to send one of those classes to cap the final point; but a defender or two will usually stop them.

Now, a sentry near E is very effective to block anyone from defending the final point. But now you're talking two teammmates - a scout and an engineer.

Wouldn't it be nice if the engy could cap the point all by himself? I wonder how he could jump to it...

Makes sense now?
