"One of our reconnaissance teams has penetrated the outskirts of Basra city and found our downed aircraft. While there are small groups of opposition forces dotted around the perimeter, we expect reinforcements to be en route as soon as we launch our offensive action to rescue the stricken pilots and secure the city. We need to plan this assault carefully, it isn't going to be easy. It's time to start preparing strategies and running drills for the assault on Basra!

Our reconnaissance team has routed some surveillance photos to us in order that we get a better lay of the land before going Oscar Mike. Study them well, they could be the difference between life and death."

The new map, entitled "Basra", focuses on intense infantry based combat over a sprawling urban environment. Basra allows for close quarter combat through it's numerous confined streets, as well as ranged engagements over multiple elevations thanks to long sight lines that afford fire support from afar. Whether you want to snipe from the multi-storey car park or set loose a soldier stopping salvo with your submachine gun, Basra provides an amazing and dynamic infantry combat experience.

That map is a snipers paradise :) *my recon with m95e is ready for it* but my other soldiers will hate that map i'm sure ÂÂ*:P
map had a lot of bugs in the PTE let's hope they are fixed when the map comes online ÂÂ*:roll:

*In the building when you are RU you can snipe easy but they cannot shoot you, I really loved that bug :p*

i think its both for snipers, heaven and hell, fantastic sight lines, long ranges, but virtually all the spots are horribly open to flank attack

assuming you can get across the mid choke



Thinking about it this would make a great night map, or at least very dark evening
