[edit] Dalian Plant
- Location: Dalian, Manchuria, China, Asia
- Setting: Coastal
- Teams: Rapid Deployment forces, USMC versus Second Army, PLA
United States Rapid Deployment forces are advancing to capture the Dalian Plant nuclear facility and force disruptions to the electrical grid in northern China. Elements of the Second Army of the People’s Republic of China have moved forward to serve as an improvised defensive force. This location is of vital strategic importance to both sides, for a major reduction of the generating capacity of the People's Liberation Army forces would allow rapid consolidation of United States units dispersed throughout this vast region.
[edit] Daqing Oilfields
American forces striking south are now poised to seize this crucial logistic component in China’s ongoing war effort, seeking to both divert petroleum resources while simultaneously hindering People's Liberation Army mechanized efforts in this sector. The stakes are high in this head-on collision between advancing United States brigades and the defending Chinese forces, with both sides advised to cautiously advance through this volatile landscape.
[edit] Dragon Valley
- Location: Minshan Mountain Range, Huanglong, China, Asia
- Setting: Autumn/Fall, River valley with step canyon walls.
- Teams: USMC versus PLA
Ancient legends of this "fairyland on Earth" tell of a yellow dragon that helped a king channel flood waters into the sea. Currently, American military forces are converging upon this idyllic valley to secure a foothold in the Minshan mountain range. Elements of the United States Marines are on the offensive in this sector, while the forces of the People’s Republic of China are called upon to defend ancient ancestral lands, in what promises to be a bitter engagement.
[edit] FuShe Pass
- Location: Manchuria, China, Asia
- Setting: northeastern highland
- Teams: USMC versus PLA
China’s rich mining areas in the northeastern highland have become contested by rapidly deploying American and Chinese forces. The narrow canyons carved into this region channel both forces into inevitable head-on confrontations as each seeks to secure the prized uranium mines with their advancing forces. In the context of this double assault, success will favor the bold, given the constrained nature of this rugged battlefield.
[edit] Gulf of Oman
- Location: Gulf of Oman, Persian Gulf Coast, Middle East
- Setting: Coastal
- Teams: Marine Expeditionary Unit, USMC versus MEC
A United States Marine Corps Marine Expeditionary Unit has landed on this Persian Gulf beach during the night in the hopes of quickly seizing the nearby Middle Eastern Coalition airbase. The stakes are high for both sides. The Marines face possibly being driven into the sea and destroyed. The Middle Eastern Coalition forces could lose a key airbase and open the door for United States forces to take strategic oilfields. Both sides have been using the morning to prepare for a final assault.
[edit] Kubra Dam
- Location: Unknown riverbed, Saudi Arabia, Middle East
- Setting: Summer, Canyon
- Teams: Active Component brigades, USMC versus MEC
Active Component brigades of the US Marines are deploying toward a key dam site in the Saudi desert, intent upon control of this strategic location. To counter the threat, MEC forces are advancing their own mobile brigades to blunt the US spearhead. This rough desert terrain contains a mix of terrain types, requiring the utmost in tactical flexibility by both US and MEC soldiers. The ultimate objective of both sides in this battle is to gain control of the entire Kubra Dam sector.This map is not available for single-player.
[edit] Mashtuur City
- Location: Near the Persian Gulf, Iran, Middle East
- Setting: Urban
- Teams: USMC versus MEC
Leading elements of the United States ground force must capture Mashtuur City, a primary Middle East axis of advance. In response, Middle Eastern Coalition units are rushing forward to hold the city at all costs. In this double assault upon a key urban asset, all elements of modern warfare are likely to be deployed, attempting to secure vital Control Points that dot the city. Victory will go to the side that controls the majority of Mashtuur when hostilities cease. This map is not available for single-player.
[edit] Operation Clean Sweep
- Location: entrance to the Persian Gulf
- Setting: Archipelago
- Teams: Rapid Deployment force, USMC vs MEC
This vital entrance to the Persian Gulf is held by local Middle Eastern Coalition forces who have established a strong defensive presence on the scattered islands of the waterway. For the United States Rapid Deployment force to clear the waterway they must first deploy air assets to disable a key Middle Eastern Coalition power station, after which the US force must enter the channel and capture the islands defended by these determined Middle Eastern Coalition fighters.
[edit] Road to Jalalabad
- Location: Jalalabad, Afghanistan
- Setting: Desert/Urban
- Teams: USMC vs MEC
The American war machine has thundered over to the eastern border of Afghanistan in its continued battle against the MEC. Jalalabad dominates the entrances to the Laghman and Kunar valleys, and is the first stop for men and supplies streaming across the Pakistani border into Afghanistan. It’s a crucial training and logistical outpost of the MEC forces, who are holed up in the heart of the city awaiting an impending US onslaught with bated breath. This city is a strategic capture point and must be taken at any cost!
[edit] Sharqi Peninsula
- Location: Peninsula on the Persian Gulf
- Setting: Coastal, Urban
- Teams: Rapid Deployment forces, USMC vs MEC
This vital position on the Persian Gulf possesses a television station with a powerful transmitter, allowing it to aid propaganda support for the ongoing Middle Eastern Coalition campaign. United States Rapid Deployment forces have captured this coastal position and now face a determined counterattack by converging Middle Eastern Coalition forces. This lazy seaside resort of villas, markets and beach houses is about to become a modern battlefield as United States forces attempt to hold on to their newly-captured communications prize.
[edit] Songhua Stalemate
- Location: Near Songhua, Manchuria, China, Asia
- Setting: Autumn/Fall, Marsh
- Teams: Active Component brigades, USMC vs PLA
Newly formed Active Component brigades of the United States Marines advance from the Russian plains into the territories of the People’s Republic of China where rapidly deployed Chinese forces mass to counter the assault. The stalemated situation along the Songhua River has deteriorated into reciprocal assaults by both sides, each seeking to capture this vital transportation artery. Stakes are high in this double assault that involves control of a main gateway to Southern Manchuria.
[edit] Strike at Karkand
- Location: Karkand, Middle East
- Setting: Summer, Urban
- Teams: USMC versus MEC
Control of the industrial facility and harbor at Karkand motivate this assault by United States forces, where they find Middle Eastern Coalition forces marshalling to defend the industrial city and determined to meet this attack with stiff resistance. Karkand bares a strong resemblance to the real-life city of Baghdad, and the terrain surrounding Karkand sufficiently opens to allow for sweeping fields of fire but the open ground increases the danger posed by anti-vehicle missiles and sniping. It is thus vital for both sides to secure firebases in Karkand’s sheltered city center.
[edit] Wake Island 2007
- Location: Wake Island, North Pacific Ocean
- Setting: Coastal
- Teams: USMC versus PLA
In a surprise move, forces of the People’s Liberation Army have attacked and captured Wake Island in a bid to threaten United States lines of supply. United States Marine Corps forces have been short-stopped from their deployment in Manchuria to respond to this new threat. The airbase on Wake Island is the lynchpin of the Chinese air threat; however, it is highly susceptible to ground attack from either the northern or southern approaches of the island.
[edit] Zatar Wetlands
- Location: Red Sea, Yemen, Middle East
- Setting: Summer, Plains
- Teams: USMC versus MEC
The Zatar Wetlands along the Red Sea coastline possess vital natural gas resources, but create a difficult battlefield for United States and Middle Eastern Coalition forces. Small tributaries break the landscape into isolated islands whose soggy marshes inhibit heavy vehicles. As American forces advance, Middle Eastern Coalition forces possess an initial advantage in the air. Control of an abandoned airfield is crucial in the battle, after which supply line protection will become an additional consideration.

[edit] Devil's Perch
- Location: Coast of Lebanon
- Setting: Nighttime, uphill
- Teams: USN versus MEC Special Forces
Located off the coast of Lebanon, the Devil's Perch was once a sanitarium but has since been abandoned. MEC Special Forces have moved in and are using it as an intelligence base to gather information on nearby European countries. Having made this discovery, the US is sending in the Navy SEALs under the cover of night to clear out the MEC threat. The battle will be swift and fierce, but the team that can perform expertly on rugged terrain and use the dark to their advantage will be victorious.
[edit] Ghost Town
- Location: Caspian Sea
- Setting: Urban
- Teams: Russian Spetsnaz versus British SAS
An entire Russian light mechanized company was recently wiped out while passing through this deserted ghost town on the Caspian Coast, leaving smoking wrecks littering the empty streets. Fearful that sensitive material may be uncovered within the wreckage, Spetsnaz agents have been sent to secure the area. Mindful of the Russian concerns, the British have secretly deployed the SAS to uncover the Russian secrets before the Spetsnaz can arrive...
[edit] Iron Gator
- Location: American amphibious assault ship USS Essex
- Setting: Indoors/ Deck of Ship
- Teams: USN versus Special Forces, MEC
MEC Special Forces have launched an attack on the USS Essex amphibious assault ship. Their intelligence was impeccable, allowing them to coordinate their assault with only a skeleton crew of US Navy SEALs onboard. Even so, the SEALs are well equipped, and prepared to put up a fierce fight in defense of their ship, affectionately referred to as "The Iron Gator". This close quarters fight inside the halls of the carrier will be won by the team working as coordinated squads and practicing superior infantry tactics.
[edit] Leviathan
- Location: Persian Gulf
- Setting: Nighttime, coastal base
- Teams: USN versus MEC Special Forces
American nuclear submarines are lying peacefully in their pens, undergoing repairs at a naval base in the Persian Gulf. Unknown to the elite Navy SEALs guarding the facility, MEC Special Forces are about to begin a nighttime raid to destroy the submarines. Should they succeed, the nuclear catastrophe could mark the beginning of the end for US forces in the Middle East.
[edit] Mass Destruction
- Location: Southern Russia
- Setting: Abandoned industrial area
- Teams: Russian Spetsnaz versus Rebels
The Spetsnaz have recently discovered activity around an abandoned factory in southern Russia. Reconnaissance teams have discovered that Rebels have brought the factory back online with the intent to develop chemical weapons. The Rebels must be removed, and any found materials returned to Mother Russia for further investigation!
[edit] Night Flight
- Location: Syria
- Setting: Nighttime, abandoned airport
- Teams: British SAS versus Insurgents
Insurgents have secretly occupied a decommissioned airport in Syria. After receiving their first shipment of supplies by cargo plane, they are in the process of bringing the airport back online. The British have sent in an SAS team in the dead of night to clear the Insurgent threat before the airstrip is fully operational. Taking advantage of their nighttime training, the SAS approach the Insurgent positions undetected.
[edit] Surge
- Location: Kazakhstan
- Setting: Abandoned missile complex
- Teams: Russian Spetsnaz versus Rebels
Local Rebels have reactivated an abandoned missile launch site in Kazakhstan and plan to launch a missile they have managed to piece together through acquisitions on the black market. The Spetsnaz are moving in to sabotage the launch site and clear out the insurgency.
[edit] Warlord
- Location: Fallujah, Iraq
- Setting: Urban
- Teams: British SAS versus Insurgents
An Insurgent warlord has been commissioning attacks against British forces in the area with tremendous success, using local civilians as a shield against retribution. His reign of terror is about to be challenged. The SAS have been called in to execute a surgical strike on the Warlord's compound and surrounding Insurgent strongholds. Navigating perilous streets and alleys, the SAS must push towards the palace, but the Insurgents have the area well-guarded and won't give it up!
[edit] Euro Force maps
[edit] Great Wall
- Location: China
- Setting: Autumn/Fall, Great Wall of China
- Teams: European Union versus PLA
A newly negotiated peace with Russia has allowed the European Union to launch an attack into mainland China from the north. The EU forces hope to breach the Great Wall of China and establish a base for future operations before continuing south to the coast, but their supply lines are dangerously thin. If the Chinese forces can head off the assault and hold them back long enough, the EU will have no choice but to retreat back into Russia. It's vital for them to link up with American forces attacking from the coast, or a sustained assault on China will be impossible!
[edit] Operation Smoke Screen
- Location: Middle East
- Setting: Desert
- Teams: European Union versus MEC
War continues to rage for the precious oil in the Middle East. The EU has come to aid their allies, confronting the MEC head-on in one of the most brutal battles of the war. Multiple assults on both fronts have pushed the armies back to their bases, decimating the middle ground and leaving the oil field a smoking ruin. Even though the oil reserves have been destroyed, what remains beneath the scorched desert sand makes this a battleground worth fighting for.
[edit] Taraba Quarry
- Location: Middle East
- Setting: River
- Teams: European Union versus MEC
The EU forces are en route to reinforce the American division that has been cut off from the front lines. The MEC have moved to intercept them, and both armies are about to meet at the Tabara Quarry, the only crossing point of the Tabara River this side of the Caspian Sea. If the MEC can hold their side of the river, the Americans will be cut off and surrounded. The EU must break through the enemy lines before the Americans are overrun.
[edit] Armored Fury maps
[edit] Midnight Sun
- Location: Alaskan border, United States, North America
- Setting: TBA
- Teams: USMC versus PLA
The Chinese have made landfall on American soil, securing the Alaskan Port of Valdez and the oil that flows in from the Alaskan pipeline. The victory was quick, with most American forces preoccupied with MEC forces in the South. The Chinese have begun pushing upriver, skirmishing with the outnumbered but determined American soldiers, intent on making the Chinese pay for every inch of American soil. US Reinforcements have arrived, and the battle for the land of the midnight sun is about to begin.
[edit] Operation Harvest
- Location: Pennsylvania, United States, North America
- Setting: Plains
- Teams: USMC versus MEC
Units of the MEC Second Armored have fought their way from a beachhead landing in the Delaware Bay to here in the Pennsylvania Dutch farmland of Lancaster County. This bold push is to cut off American units moving south to reinforce Washington D.C., a city under siege by MEC forces. This agriculturally rich area of American culture is about to erupt, as battle hardened units of America’s Armored and Cavalry Divisions muster to stop the MEC Second Armored advance head on.
[edit] Operation Road Rage
- Location: United States, North America
- Setting: Freeway
- Teams: USMC versus MEC
The MEC forces have made landfall on the Eastern Coast of the United States, and are preparing to push inland. Caught by surprise, the US Marines are deploying nearby, hastily preparing a base of operations to stop the MEC advance. The key objective for both armies is a highway junction in the middle of the battlefield that grants access to nearly every key military target in the area. Whoever controls this overpass controls most of the Eastern Seaboard.
