Mashtuur City 32-Player Map - displaying named capture points
[edit]
Map info
This is probably the second best infantry map. Reasonably small, plenty of close combat fighting, great fun.
Items to note:
- The central point, the Mosque, seems to often be the most contested. One important location to note is the building slightly to the south east, with stairs leading up from the back. It is an excellent place to both defend and attack the Mosque.
- The north-western point is not so easy to attack. It has a similar building to the Mosque, which squad leaders can climb up and camp, but the difference is that enemies will spawn in the building itself, so you will often find yourself fending off defenders at the flag and defenders behind you in the building.
- It's worth noting that almost every building in the main, central portion of this map has a ladder leading to its roof. If you move about as an infantryman, then try to sprint whenever you're crossing open ground, or you're likely to get fired on by rooftop snipers. Some of the ladders are behind wooden fences, simply throw a 'nade at them and hey presto, a new ladder to climb.
- The southern spawn points supply tanks for US/MEC
- This is where the famous Blackhawk whoring came to exist. a lot of players would reccomend attempting to shoot the wheels, but its just plain stupid. Try aiming for the head of the pilot with a grenade launcher. Fire that grenade off, and goodbye pilot
