What are your favorite locations on maps to fight marines?

Id like to get some ideas of what ideal terrain is for xenos. So please, post your favorite places to ravage, stalk, pounce, boil or hug.
Feel free to talk about tactics and opportunities and be sure to include what caste. If you cant find a picture ill try to find one for you.
With enough information we could use it to compile a guide on xeno-architecture for hive designs.

Carrier, around the FOB.
Tossing huggers into boiler neuro or dropping them in front of barricades is great.

Security on prison station is a great place to be a hunter. Plenty of tucked away vents, various escape routes, lots of good shadows to hide in. I've gotten many a streak of kills in that area.

That area right there plus the hallways north of it is one of my favorite spots too.

Around admin/hospital and southwest of bar is also a fun spot on big red.

Also, the USS Almayer before the ayys steal the dropship and crash. Stalking those halls is something else.

This is pretty interesting so far. I would of thought nested loops would make for the best terrain. But most of these are pretty wide open and have lots of dead ends.

Remember that one tight as fuck entrance to the caves in LV? To the left of cargo. I have captured lots of marines there as praetorian/spitter, that spot is great
