It is a sort of circular map, with a multitude of [[Teleporters]], tunnels and passages.

The most notable feature of the map is the central section of elevated tunnels. There are two entrances to this complex, one by a teleporter and one by an inclined ramp. The strategic value lies in the two exit points which allow a player to drop unexpectedly from the ceiling through a wide hole into the enemy section of the base. Since this is strictly a one-way vector of attack and jumping down this hole usually entails grabbing an [[active camouflage|Active camouflage]] or [[Overshield]] power-up, defenders are forced to keep an eye to the ceiling.

Likewise, it is not known where they would have found the equipment necessary, or the time to do this.
