Gulf of Oman
A USMC Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) has landed on this Persian Gulf beach during the night in the hopes of quickly seizing the nearby MEC airbase.
The stakes are high for both sides. The Marines face possibly being driven into the sea and destroyed. The MEC forces could lose a key airbase and open the door for US forces to take strategic oilfields. Both sides have been using the morning to prepare for a final assault.
General Tactics
The map released with the demo of BF2, this map is a fantastic example of the Battlefield experience incorporating planes, choppers, tanks, and infantry combat.
