Eastern Europe
Contents
Overview
Eastern Europe is a ground forces map available in all modes. It was added in Update 1.45 "Steel Generals".
The map is based around a (fictional) Eastern European town. The town (and indeed the map as a whole) is split by a river which runs across the map, just south of the middle. The town consists mostly of two story buildings, with reasonably wide streets. There are a total of six bridges (within the town area) linking the north and south of the map. The bridges on the outside of the town are furthest from the likely combat zone, however they can leave the player more exposed than some of the other bridges, so the likely position of enemy tanks should be considered when choosing a crossing. In the center of the south part of the town there is a slightly more open area, with a few buildings and defenses facing towards the north, this area often acts as a capture point.
The north part of the town is slightly less dense, with more open areas. The north provides a good way of outflanking players in the south, however players in the south can easily return fire if you get caught in the open. North of the town is a fuel depot, on top of a hill, players are open to enemy fire while approaching the depot, but once there it provides a commanding view of the map, allowing you too shoot at tanks in the north and south of the town, as well as the open area to the south of the town.
South of the town is an open area with trees and hills to provide cover. Players can use this area to get shots into the sides of their enemies, and ambush players on their way from their spawn. East of the eastern spawn point there is a large hill which tank destroyers and other vehicles can use to engage players in the south and north of the map at long range.
The full tank map is 4km x 4km, the air battles area is 65km x 65km.

Break
It is not clear if the Break variant of Easter Europe still appears in random battles. |
One capture point will be in the south west of the northern half of the town, and another will be in the north east of the town, where the river splits. When captured they will unlock a capture point in the west (opposite the southern hill of the island) and in the east (opposite the northern hill of the island), respectively. When captured these points unlock the final capture zones, located in the north of the northern half of the town, and the west of the southern half, respectively.
The layout is the same in AB, RB and SB.
