Battlefield 3 Premium eGuide Battlefields Tank Superiority

Death Valley

Superiority Flag

In this epic tank battle the flag is in the center of the valley beneath the railway bridge. The US team deploys from the logging camp on the north side of the map while the RU team deploys from the communication station to the south. Each team has access to the same number of tanks and tank destroyers, making it a fair race to the flag. The faster tank destroyers should lead the way while the tanks bring up the rear. But not all vehicles should rush toward the flag. The flag sits in a bowl-like depression surrounded by higher terrain to the east and west. Once the flag is captured, consider backing off and defending the valley from the eastern and western flanks. Avoid driving onto the railway bridge as it offers little room to maneuver and makes your vehicle easy to spot and target. Since this battle occurs at night, consider equipping thermal optics to help you spot enemy vehicles and infantry moving through the valley. Amid the chaos of the battle, engineers can make themselves useful by targeting enemy vehicles with Javelins. Recon troops can also lend a hand by planting SOFLAMs around the valley’s perimeter, ideal for laser-designating targets for laser-guided munitions.
