Map History
Sidi Power Plant was taken into service toward the end of the first century of
the second millennium. At its time it was considered an experimental power plant
as efficient as a nuclear plant, but much more friendly to the environment. With
the oncoming ice, Sidi Power Plant remains one of the largest functional power
sources in northern Africa. As such, it is regarded as a highly appealing asset
for both PAC and EU forces.
Vehicles
The map is vehicle-based and holds all vehicles from the game. Air transport
vehicles and heavy attack vehicles spawn at the rim bases with the exception of
Battle Walkers, which spawn on each side of the river. The center island spawns
the map’s only Air Attack vehicle.
