So, the Big map and Mini-Map use different compass directions, apparently. This is a problem.

[[File:Sinai_Desert_Conquest_Pre-Alpha.png|thumb|200px]]
As most objectives are situated north of the railway and proximal to the town, combat on [[Conquest]] is concentrated in this zone and is varied, consisting of close and medium range infantry actions, in addition to armored combat permitted by the wide streets. On the outskirts of the town, however, are objectives that are comparatively remote, requiring vehicles to travel to in good time, and much more open, leaving troops vulnerable to sniper attack from the surrounding cliffs, as long as the weather permits. South of the railway, a single objective is positioned far out into the desert. This isolated expanse, mostly inhospitable to the infantry, is prime battleground for the extensive [[Cavalry|cavalry]], tank and aircraft available to each army.

Sitting at the base of the central village hill, the Train Station is the mid point in the railway that spans the map. At this point on the line, the railway splits to form a siding, where two cargo railcars are parked. Although easily blasted apart by shellfire, these containers are the only obstruction in a highly open capture radius, which extends to the platform to the north, a short distance into the desert of the south, and encompasses the track in-between--all of these areas are mostly devoid of cover.

+
A QF 2-Pounder AA gun is emplaced within a ring of sandbags on the south side of the track, parallel to the platform. A number of Maxim Guns are installed inside the cargo carriages found stationary in the siding. Two functional FK-96 field guns are found next to either end of the train cars pointed east and west, respectively.

The Ammunition Depot is located in a gorge within the rocky crags of the north-east side of the map. Surrounded from all sides by steep cliff faces, there are limited entryways into the capture zone.

, such as in the north-east and south-west, however an arched rock formation to the south produces a natural ramp for infantry to reach the top of the cliffs, and thus cover the objective from above. At ground level, the flag sits in a supply trench covered with camouflage netting, which provides decent directional cover, as do the many boulders that litter the desert floor

Sentry elite class Battle Pickup is found in the trench at this objective, in addition to an FK-96 emplaced on a rocky outcrop across the clearing north of the flag itself.
