For historical information, Wikipedia has an article on Battle of Bir Hakeim.

Bir Hakeim is a map set around the eponymous fort in Libya. It is fought between Free France and Italy.

Description[]

The Italians start off with two uncapturable bases to the south-west and north-west, whereas the French control the central position of the map.

The Italian side has access to a large number of tanks, supported by APCs and aircraft. The French have a large number of anti-tank guns, complemented by a smaller number of artillery pieces, tanks, and aircraft.

The Conquest mode and Co-op mode have different setups:

Conquest mode[]

The French have four control points, all of which are close to each other. The central control point is worth more than the three other control points combined, which makes it the main objective for the Italians to capture in order to stop the ticket bleed.

Co-op mode[]

There is only one French control point to capture at the centre of the fort. The French side must hold this control point at all costs, as it also serves as their sole spawn point in the map.

Trivia[]

  • The map is ported and modified from an older map of the same name, which is part of the "All Roads Lead to Rome" map pack by zara5ustra for Battlefield 1942: The Road to Rome.
