===What is competitive TF2===
* 6v6 is 2 scouts, 2 soldiers, 1 demoman, 1 medic
** <imagery/videos of each?>

* logistics
** map types
***(the Push/KOTH/AD pages better explain what the common strategies for each mode are)
** types of scoring

* how to think about the game
** advantages/disadvantages
** decision making
** <insert framed quotes from the many forum posts that have been written on this topic>
*** perhaps see [http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=37375 bowt] or [http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=50876 yuki]

<pre>maybe thinking about the game can be moved to under a 
[[metagame]] page, so we can keep this section brief? -maxim</pre>
