As it seems to be difficult concept to grasp, i thought i write few guidelines you should follow.

1. 750 points for enemy and you will lose. You will not make more money by losing even if you kill many mechs, so stop hunting the irrelevant mech and cap if it is necessary. This is especially true if you are fast mech.

2. If enemy has flags, he will get points.

3. If enemy has 500 points to your 300-400 points and 3 flags, he has big advantage, you should be capping at this point.

4. If last 1-2 mechs that enemy has are jenner, raven, spider or cicada, cap or defend cap if enemy has 500 points or more.

5. if you are fast mech and your team is losing cap more than 300 points, your job is not hunt mechs anymore, you go cap something. Preferably something that isn't near any of your other slower mechs

6. If someone in your team says that we need to cap, it is usually for good reason. Check points 1-5. of this list and work accordingly.

Also, if for some reason you are unable to capture a base while standing near it, you're not alone.

Spider is capping your base. Look closely. Can you spot the spider?

Depends on how many CBills the spider wants me to spot him :D
