Seawall Battery back door

Maybe I just joined the battle too late (don't think I did) but I was barely
in the game when I heard that the back door was breached. Is there a way to
blow the back door?

On servers running ETPro this can be done but a lot of them have it
disabled.

reckon.. its easy enough for allies to get in there when they can't
blow the door! much too easy if they can,

hey can you build the door again when it's blown?

Battery is a rubbish map when you can't blow the back door. Any
vaguely organised Axis team can win Battery just by having a covert
ops who is awake (to blow the ramp) and by making sure nobody goes on
the beach or out the back door (to make sure they don't get a
uniform).

At least when you can blow the back door there is a decent fight on
two fronts (the back bunker becomes crucial instead of pointless) and
the Allies can win through skill rather than by relying on a mistake
by the Axis team.

good theory, but i don't think i've ever played that map when some
doofus axis doesn't jump onto the beach and try to kill the allies in
their beach spawn (giving them a uni) or runs out the back to fight
the allies coming up from the rear (giving them a uni)

I think it is possible for a well organised Allied team to win even
against a good Axis team. More often than not a decent Axis team will
hold out but if air strikes, mortars and smoke cannisters are used
sensibly by the attacking allies they can usually get through. Even
the most determined Axis team can't prevent the odd team mate being
blasted onto the beach by a mortar or air strike.

I agree it is fairer and more fun this way.

but in these situations you can watch for your axis teammates bodies
flying onto the beach and try to gib them if u can. i'm careful to
watch for this whenever im in the front bunker as axis, even if it
means watsting a rocket just to gib a dead body.

Even if an allies covert gets a uniform, its way easy for Axis to hold that
back door even if allies has multiple guys trying to get in through the back
door.

If they know it's a high priority. The problem is most battery players
don't realize it's important to keep uniforms out of the Allies' hands
on that map, and in they don't there's a huge threat against them the
back way.
