If you take a long hard look at the screeny you can get the gist of it.
However some specifics:
Put the TF one length away from the tram, and all seiges should reach nicely assuming they are on the wall closes to the hive.
Watch for lerks, the vents were reworked to allow a alien friendly system that isn't along they painfully long tram tunnel, so be sure to watch for flanks.
If they aliens start with tram you can relocate to lower junct and seige at the very begining, just make sure to have 1 marine capping other nodes, and run the tech tree as lerks will pester soon enough.

This is gona be great. Once again proves that odd strategies might work
Well, at least some noob comms might have benefited from this.
Edit:
Relocations blow.
As for relocations in general, it depends on your adversary. I'd never do it in a scrim, I'd happily do it for the crack in a public match though.

It's incredibly old. I remember it being the first thing we figured out and practiced in my 1.01-1.04 clan on bast... sort of the siege in the old engine vent, when the MS siege was considered illegal. Mmm, tripwire mines, small tunnel and no wallwalk. Mmmm.

Do you remember building a base in airlock? You could siege a hive and RT cap one RT, be in the center of map thereby having a vital chokepoint always under control... I guess that's why they "fixed" it. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad-fix.gif" />
Get two people in the double doors at main aft, do this a couple of times to make sure that nearly everyone leaves. Rejoin and kill marine start because 1-2 pubbers who can't aim are no match for skulkbite.
