In this badlands battlefield, four foes will duel for control over a vault of minerals and gas in the center of the board. In addition to the four starting locations and the main stockpile, there are four ancillary expansion sites, two accessible only by bridges, the other two atop mountainous precipices. Every location on the map is wide open to attack and there are few--if any--bottlenecks, discouraging players from walling up choke-points.
