April 2011: A salvage yard in the middle of a slum flooded by a broken sewer main forms the backdrop to this classic meat-grinder. A mound of burning tires brackets one side while the other is dominated by a poorly-illuminated warehouse full of explosive chemicals. Evidence of a failed UN mission is hidden throughout the area. On this map battle is channeled into a labyrinthine junkyard overlooked by a handful of critical vantage-points. The fighting over these strategic locations tends to get pretty intense with a lot of tight corners and blind spots.
