8p_Dead_Woods

After I received orders from high command to capture the lumberyard, my men began to establish forward positions. I don’t understand why high command thinks this old abandoned pile of wood is strategically valuable. This sector seems like the perfect place to get ambushed and cut off by the enemy. However, another thought worries me even more. From the moment I set foot on these grounds, a strange feeling crept through my veins. I took in the surroundings; the forest seemed dark, deeply cold, deprived of life. Who knows what truly dwells beyond the forest. I only hope that we make it out of these dead woods alive.

Dead Woods is an eight player map that consists of a small lumberyard surrounded by cliffs and forest. Each base area has a line of sturdy defenses. Next to the base area, there are two fortified munition points. A small lumberyard is situated at the centre of the map, and two main roads run through it. The lumberyard is separated from dense forest by elevated cliffs on the right and left sides.

From a gameplay perspective, Dead Woods encourages thorough strategic planning and aggressive action on the map. Although the player has strong base defenses, the important capture points are further into the map, so the player can’t play too passively. The lumberyard is the most operationally important area of the map, as it holds the maps’s two victory points and the only fuel point. However, the surrounding forest areas give a passage to flank and surround the lumberyard. Vehicles are vulnerable in the dense forest, as they must follow narrow trails. Infantry can move freely through the woods, in the cover of the trees.

I hope you enjoy my second ever map,
