The battlefield

Grand Gulf

A long gulf cuts north into the coast. The Blue naval base sits on the western shore of the map and the Red naval base on the eastern; between them lie two shores of towns, a harbour city at the head of the gulf, an airbase behind it and a missile complex under the ridge.

On the ground

Captures from the editor as the map is built. Many buildings are still blockouts; the ground, the roads and the layout are in.

West

Blue Naval Base

A walled compound above its own quay: spawn hall, command building, hospital, supply yard, vehicle depot, helipads and howitzer pits, with the Blue fleet and its carrier offshore.

East

Red Naval Base

The mirror of it on the eastern shore, with the Red fleet offshore. Each base is protected ground: the war is fought over what lies between them.

Sector 3

Northgate Airbase

A runway, a tower and two rows of hangars north of the city, each a strongpoint of its own.

Sector 3X

Northgate Silos

A missile complex dug into the ridge: four silo shafts, a launch control capsule and three floors of chambers behind blast doors, reached by a ramp, an adit and a road tunnel.
