I've only gotten this map twice, both times at the west spawn. No idea what to do here. I went north both times, and both times ran into a pack of reds on the ridge by the mountain.

What tank are you in? From what I've seen, the heavies go to the corner at the South of the map, mediums and TD's play in the middle and mediums, fast TD's and lights head North. I've only had it once when I was in my Obj 704, I followed the heavies towards the corner but stopped at the gap between the base and the heavy corner to stop the Reds flanking our heavies.

The north part of the map can be a nightmare for Russian/Chinese tanks as it's a hilled area that for reasons TDs love going to. This environment is where quite a bit of brawling comes in and shots from nowhere. Probably because of dem bushes. The middle/south area is a another brawling area that is flat and suits tanks with all around good armour and guns. That's all I know so far as I've only got the map 3 times.

First time I was in my T34. second time was in my Fatton. Seems to me that the north favors the East spawn. I'll have to try the south next time.

It seems to me like you can't Afjord to lose the North/Middle area, while you can lose the lower area and still pull out of it.

Heavies tend to fight south. Mediums and lights head north TDs go either way.

I've gotten this map quite a few times. The first 2 were pretty good battles, but it has devolved into both teams lemming training the north and slugging it out in the A8, B7 area. This site seems to favor the east though because they have the high ground are better able to go hull down and ridge fight.

I don't see many people do it but you can actually go mid and cut up through the field spawning on the eastern side.
Also for those who don't know the small pond area is traversable. You can go down the bumpy hill and across into the town that way or vice versa. Good little route for alight or medium to flank and catch people off guard.

Getting behind the rock above that pond is great to hit reds in the town or on the road!!

I have had the map several times. I try to go north and contest the ridge. I had a game last night where most of my team went north so I turned and headed south and played defensively, seeing how we only had 3 tanks in the south. It is hard at this point to say what strategy works best, at least it is for me. I like the map as it has a reasonable blend of terrain, unlike maps like Dragon Ridge and Sacred Valley

Both flag capture circles have overwatch areas for ambush that make destruction strategy key. There is a potato identification area on the peninsula.

I've gotten this map a handful of times, and every won every match. I always spawn east, and immediately head up that mountain. Me and the few that follow stomp the few reds show up. From there, you just kill the base kempers and pincer to your hearts content. I'm sure this will eventually stop being so effective as people learn the map, but I'm really enjoying it for now.
