    Eve of Destruction 0.3 Changes

    NEW:

    MAPS:
    • Brown Water Navy
    NVA vs Special Forces. Time: Evening. Head-On map, capture 4 flags to reduce your opponents tickets.

    • Operation Hastings
    Head-On map. Huge Battle with Blackbird, tanks, choppers and jets. And Hanoi Hanah.

    • Operation Linebacker
    Objectives map - USA must destroy SA-2 Missile bases and a factory before time runs out.

    • Run Through The Jungle
    Objectives map. USA must destroy five AA guns before time runs out. SPECIAL: US APCs are mobile spawnpoints.

    • Truong Son Chasm
    Head-On map. ARVN vs VC. Infantry fight map with new army.

    • We were Soldiers once
    map depicting the events on Nov 14th 1965, when 450 U.S. soldiers were dropped into a small clearing in the Ia Drang Valley. They were surrounded by 2,000 North Vietnamese soldiers.

    This is a Hybrid Objectives map - The US team needs the LZ and one point to reduce tickets gradually, the NVA needs to defend all flags.

    SPECIAL: US does not have a base to spawn, instead the hueys serve as mobile spawnpoints. These Hueys cannot be used by the Vietminh and do not explode when left alone. If the US loses LZ X-Ray AND all the Hueys, the battle will be over for them - USA cannot spawn on the two middle controlpoints. If the NVA captures either perimeter point, they'll gain an additional spawnpoint closer to the LZ.
