== | ==Overview== | ||
Once home of a [[Lance O'Donnell|wealthy socialite]], [[Ivory Tower (location)|Ivory Tower]] was later converted into a “public” park visited only by the upper echelon of New Mombasa society. Intended to be conducive to solitary contemplation and repose, the architecture for this site was fancied by [[War Games]] analysts for its unique verticality and vague symmetry, making it a compelling scenario for close-quarters combat simulations.<ref name="mombasa waypoint"/> | |||

In the middle of Ivory Tower there is an alley that leads to a drainage grate where you will find the [[M41 SPNKR|rocket launcher]] in most game types. This alley leads to a circular area with a palm tree sitting at the base of a set of giant stone steps inlaid with grass. These steps lead up to an elevator and two hallways. One hallway leads to a dark room and the other leads to a lighter room that bears the [[overshield]]. The elevator can either take you to the upper part of the map that has the [[SRS99C-S2 AM sniper rifle|sniper rifle]] or the lower part of the map where you can acquire the [[Type-1 energy sword|energy sword]]. | In the middle of Ivory Tower there is an alley that leads to a drainage grate where you will find the [[M41 SPNKR|rocket launcher]] in most game types.
