Map Introduction
Nexus Dam (Also known as Friendship Dam) was a “friendly collaboration” between one of two rivaling global powers and a developing country. Meant to provide electricity via modern power station to a brand-new town, the place is now a peaceful climate research centre amongst old caves that used to harbour insurgents – and just one good hit at a dam could start a catastrophe. There are plenty of high spots for long-range snipers as well as hiding places for heavier armored tanks to take those marksmen down. Dominate the high ground or crush still while rumbling through riverbed valleys and ramming snipers off the cliffs!
Terrain Features
Mostly rocky mountain terrain with a mix of a small town and village on one side with the dam and power plant occupying the other side.
Vision Control
Several elevated positions allow strong vision control over key pathways and objectives.
Map Flow
Open corridor style with three main paths providing ample cover for attacking/defending.
Map Feature 4
Details about this key map feature are coming soon. We’ll explain its tactical importance and how controlling it can influence the flow of battle.
Map Overview
Your typical battle will have you attacking/defending the middle of the map around points B and C while protecting the point closest to your spawn (Spawn 1: Point E, Spawn 2: Point D). Point A happens to be one of several useful overwatch positions but is not regularly attacked.
Pro Tip
Point A/Power plant is a point that many often forget about and has been the reason for loosing battles. It is best to keep an eye on it incase you notice an opening.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which spawn position has an advantage?
Based on personal experience, the north spawn (spawn 2) has a slight advantage in capturing point C due to the design of the hill. South Spawn (spawn 1) has the advantage in capturing point A due to pathing and cover. North spawn has a disadvantage as the nearby tunnel can be easily blocked. This disadvantage diminishes at higher skill levels as players know how to counter it.
How should I approach this map as a Marksman?
For Marksman, it is best to use your advantage in sniping. Some common positions are those with big sightlines behind the frontline.
