Klondike – Take Over the North in Grand Battles

If you think winter is the time to retreat indoors with the heat cranked up, get ready for the Tier X action on Klondike. It gets real hot on this new winter map when two teams lock horns in Grand Battles. Excited? Let’s explore it together and learn how to snipe, splatter, and slay opponents battling in the deceptively serene North American wilderness!

Summary

• Setting: North America
• Sizes: 1.4×1.4km
• Mode: Grand Battles (Standard and Encounter formats—be sure to pick “Grand Battle,” “Standard” and “Encounter” in the game settings to get matched in both)
• Objectives: Capture the base (the enemy base for Standard mode, or a neutral one for Encounter), or destroy all enemy vehicles

Welcome to Klondike

Inspired by the adventure writing of Jack London, Klondike brings tank battles to North America, where dirty streets and crusty clapboard buildings of a mining settlement tell the story of the Gold Rush. Don’t be distracted by the tranquility of the cold weather, though. Lone cabins, snow-sprinkled hill roads, and dusty riverbanks will reverberate with the sounds of battle when a firefight is in full turmoil.

Routes & Positions

Teams start in the southwestern and northeastern corners of the map, with three spawn points each, and three routes leading to enemy territory. Head north to a small mining town and attack the river bridge in the center, or venture into the abandoned settlement on an island to the south.

Whichever direction you defend or attack, stay focused on points of interest located in no man’s land between the two camps. Expect to battle hard for these areas: claiming them provides a tactical advantage over nearby land. Once you have control over points of interest, move on to capture the enemy’s defensive positions.
