This map is, essentially, a big figure 8 track (note, a digital 8, meaning vehicles must turn 90 degrees to cross straight from one side to the next). The map is extremely open and vehicle-based around its perimeter and center, with close combat and medium-sized rooms everywhere else. It has two [[M12 Warthog|Warthog]]s and [[M274 Mongoose|Mongoose]]s parked outside of both bases. Small rooms connect each base. Around the edge of the map there is a small outdoor road. | This map is, essentially, a big figure 8 track (note, a digital 8, meaning vehicles must turn 90 degrees to cross straight from one side to the next).
