Ubicaciones

• Patio del cuarto de regeneración: Un área abierta situada justo fuera de la base.
• Edificio de transición: Después del Patio de la base viene el Edificio de transición, el cual es una estructura simple con dos entradas y dos salidas que conducen al campo de batalla.
• Valle: Está entre el Edificio de transición y la Casa hay un Valle, un pasadizo angosto hecho de tierra. Botiquines de salud y cajas de municiones medianos se pueden encontrar ahí.
• Casa: Directo al otro lado del punto de control se encuentra la Casa, una gran estructura de dos pisos que ofrece una gran vista y mucha munición.
• Flancos: Los Flancos son dos edificios que se encuentran a ambos lados del punto de control, intercalando el objetivo entre ellos. Tienen un botiquín mediano de salud.
• Túneles: Un conjunto de dos túneles subterráneos que conecta los Flancos con la Casa.
• Plataforma: Opuesto a los Flancos hay una estructura elevada que tiene una vista general hacia el punto de control.
