Mashtuur City

"Leading elements of the US ground force must capture Mashtuur City, a primary Middle East axis of advance. In response, MEC units are rushing forward to hold the city at all costs. In this double assault upon a key urban asset, all elements of modern warfare are likely to be deployed, attempting to secure vital CPs that dot the city. Victory will go to the side that controls the majority of Mashtuur when hostilities cease."

Mashtuur City is a multiplayer map that is featured in Battlefield 2 and Battlefield Play4Free that takes place in a city and its boundaries and outskirts. The map is essentially the same in both games.

Flags

Both sides start out with two flags. The USMC team will have the advantage as 2 out of 3 of the idle flags are close to them, while the MEC has to travel farther to capture those 2 flags. However, the westernmost idle flag, although farther than the one in between the front-most outposts, can be captured easily.

• "Mashtuur" in Arabic (مشطور) means "split" or "divided".
