How cs_italy plays
cs_italy is a Hostage Rescue map. CTs push into the hostage rooms, use +use to collect each hostage, and lead them to the rescue point. Terrorists defend the hostages and lock down the approaches. Rescuing all hostages wins the round for the CTs.

Tips for cs_italy
The market and the wine cellar are two entirely different games: open and long above, blind and close below. CTs who split between them get picked apart one at a time. As a T, the hostage room has one door and a window — respect the window, it is where most rescues die.
