Kharg Docks

**Kharg Docks** is one of the four new maps included in Call Of Duty All Out War: Aftermath. The map is inspired by the real-life Kharg Island (or Khark, depending on the romanization). At roughly eight square miles (approximately 20 square kilometers), the island contains an airfield, a paved circuit serving the northern region, and the KHEMCO oil facility in the south. A wildlife refuge is located on an island roughly two miles to the northeast. It is one of the largest maps of the game.

## Design

Kharg Docks takes place inside Kharg Island around a docks and Mountain Range. There are several long deserts making this map perfect for vehicular combat, while featuring close quarters combat around the Construction Site and Offices. This is one of the only maps in the Aftermath DLC featuring jets in Conquest modes. A huge body of water on the east side ventures out into a riverway going from the C Flag to B Flag, making RHIBs a preferred method of travel as each flag has a body of water close by.

## Conquest

This map has four flags in normal Conquest, while featuring an extra one in Conquest Large.

### Equipment

 Emplacement(s) | Centurion C-RAM

 Emplacement(s) | 1 Pantsir-S1

### Deployments

The USMC spawn at the beachhead near a highway. The RGF spawn near a docks on the end of the Mountain Range.

#### Gas Station

The station can be captured from inside the building and much of the surface surrounding. The station is one of few buildings that can be completely toppled. The terrain shields this area from much of the mountain range, although a separate crevasse (and the communications towers at Army Base) has clear view. This is the closest flag to the United States deployment making it the easiest accessible flag to them.

When captured, a Dirt Bike, and Growler ITV or VDV Buggy spawns.

#### Army Base

This flag is set more inland than others. The nearby structures also give plenty of view. It can be captured anywhere inside the basic area of the base. There is even a communications tower that you can either access by ladder, or by utilizing a helicopter or jet as a taxi to land here. It provides easy sniper support for the Gas Station. A slope leading down to the river has a docking area with a RHIB.

When captured, a pair of Dirt Bikes spawn in the army base, as well as a RHIB to the northeast.

#### Canal

The AC-130 spawns here, making it very important to get. It is the main flag that RHIBs can access from the waterways just north. And it resides just east from the Construction Site. The bridge overhead can be blown up, causing waterways to be blocked, it shares this feature with the Delta flag in Fire Run. There are multiple small buildings as you go through the canal that defenders of this objective can hide in as they defend. A river heading north leads up to the Army Base objective, and makes the RHIB spawning here a clear transport to get to the mountain range.

When captured, the AC-130 is available alongside a RHIB.

#### Construction Site

The focus around this flag would be infantry battle, as there are many buildings and niches that vehicles cannot access, from which infantry can cover the flag effectively. The crane is here, providing a classic sniping spot. However, climbing it leaves players vulnerable to incoming enemy fire. At the top, it does not provide a good view of the whole map, rather, just the open canal area and clusters of buildings. Player may go to the top of the unfinished buildings by the use of aircraft or Radio Beacon. This spot tends to be more favored because it can have a higher or lower elevation than the crane and is harder to reach.

When captured, a pair of Dirt Bikes spawn, as well as a RHIB.

#### Docks

*[Conquest Large]* The Docks are only present as a capture point in Conquest Large. Here, objective E houses various containers, pipes, construction materials, docks, and a few .50 Cal emplacements in wooden towers, which can be destroyed quickly by explosives. A building, is here alongside some containers which can be used for cover. Other than that, this flag is exposed to watercraft. Just like the Gas Station (objective A).

When captured, a Dirt Bike, and Growler ITV or VDV Buggy spawns.

## Rush

Rush has the USMC leading an assault into Kharg Island to eliminate a RGF threat in the area. It sees the USMC fight from the Docks to the Army Base.

### Stage 1

The first stage sees the USMC launch an amphibious assault on the Docks. (Objective E on Conquest Large.) The RGF spawn at the Construction Site, and the M-COMs are both located close to the shore in a Shipping Area. Vehicles issued to the USMC branching off of their carrier consist of 3 LAV-25s, 1 AAV-7A1 AMTRAC, 1 RCB, multiple RHIBs, and a AH-1Z Viper. The defenders are given 2 T-90As and an assortment of Anti-Air/Anti-Tank equipment located roughly upshore from the Docking Area.

### Stage 2

The following stage sees the RGF Forces pushed slightly to the east towards the complex of Offices and the centralized Construction Site. The RGF now spawn on the other side of the canal, while the M-COMs are both located around the Construction Site. One at the Crane, and another inside the unfinished Warehouse. The USMC now retain a forward spawn point at the docks, which issues them 2 M1 Abrams, and 2 Growler ITVs. In addition to these, the RCB, the RHIBs and the AH-17 Viper still remain. The defenders remain with their tanks.

### Stage 3

The final stage is a lengthy one. All the way back at the Army Base, is where the RGF will attempt to hold their ground for the last push. The RGF now spawn in the area around the Army Base, while the USMC spawn at the Canals. M-COM Locations are both in the northern wing of the Army Base. The final vehicles issued to the USMC are as follows; 3 M1 Abrams, 4 Growler ITVs, 2 RHIBs, a UH-1Y Venom and a AH-1Z Venom. The defenders have 2 T-90As and a 9K22 Tunguska.
