For Multiplayer, you need one info_player_start (gold), and at least one each of the info_player_allied (blue) and info_player_axis (pink) spawn points. You can also put in a few info_player_deathmatch (green) for freeforall games. The allied and axis points work in both Team Deathmatch and Objective games.

Singleplayer only needs the one info_player_start spawn point.

As long as you have to recompile anyway, you might as well add a func_crate. Create a brush and give it crate or wood textures. Then, with it highlighted, press key N. Find "func_crate" on the list and double click it. Hit N again to close the window. Now the crate will break apart when shot or blown up.
