Operation Ironclad is a map set in Madagascar. It is fought between the United Kingdom and Vichy France.
Description[]
This is a large map with seven control points: six of them are under Vichy France's control, and one is neutral.
The British have an Attacker-class escort carrier, a Dido-class cruiser, a Flower-class corvette, and a Landing Craft Mechanized to begin the assault. The French have a number of tanks, stationary weapons, and aircraft for defense.
Whichever side holds five or more control points will incur a ticket bleed to the other side.
There are a number of civilian vehicles in the map, namely coupes, Autocar Dispatch Model SA trucks, and wooden boats, which can help players to navigate in long distances.
It is also worth noting that no parachutes are available for bailed out pilots in this map.
Trivia[]
- A Ko-hyoteki-class submarine can be found and used in the map, which represents Japanese midget submarines that took part in attacks on Madagascar.
- There are two Easter eggs in this map: One inside a hut surrounded by a ring of huts, and a hidden image that can only be seen underwater.
