In the 'swamp thing' (Basara) map I put doubled flags worth 500 points at the entrance to the maze I so labourously created in the swamp. It looks completely impassable but there is a maze of hidden paths thru the swamp and I was leaving a clue. Not sure if that worked or not. Nobody in their right mind fights a battle in a swamp, which might have been why the Mullahs and Saddam fought there.

Actually I'd say a situation like that is a very good use of objective flags. Since it was a very limited pathing area this helps the AI and indicates the importance of controlling that path.
