Stockpile

"Fight over the tight interiors and long roads of a rural Soviet town."

- Stockpile's map description

 is a multiplayer map released in the Escalation DLC for Call of Duty: Black Ops.

The map takes place in a suburban village in Russia that includes a stockpile of arms inside one of the buildings.

The map also features a building in the center of the map with two large steel doors that can be opened and closed with switches located next to them on both the inside and outside of the building. When using the switch, a siren sounds and alerts the building's occupants. This building is usually where most of the fighting occurs, and it contains the "B" flag in Domination as well as a bomb site in Demolition and Search and Destroy.

Tactics

 * It is recommended to enter the main building by using the windows because players sometimes wait for enemy players at the destroyed entrances.
 * Players will often rush to the main building and close the doors to create a fortress. Try to get to the main building first and defend it.
 * The player should make sure to be aware of their surroundings while in the main building, as many players will flank and come from behind.
 * It is a good strategy, and often a humourous one, to close and wait behind the garage doors and knife anybody unwary enough to enter through them. You also get a warning that someone is coming because if you close the doors, you will see and hear them opening.

Trivia

 * This is the only map in which there is a new death icon added.
 * The garage doors on the main building can and will crush anyone who is in the way of it's closing. If someone is crushed by the doors, the door will pause briefly, and then continue to close.
 * There is a picture of this map on Convoy.
 * The death icon for getting killed by the garage doors is the same as getting run over by a tank in World at War, or by being killed a Care Package in Modern Warfare 2.
 * Just touching the doors while they are going up or down will kill the player instantly.
 * The Player can open the gates from both inside and outside
