SAND STRIKE 

Once a thriving metropolis, Ashara now stands as a vast, deserted city half-buried in sand. Crumbling skyscrapers and wide, desolate streets offer tactical cover for defenders and saboteurs alike, while scattered weapon caches beckon those bold enough to brave the open. The relentless desert sun and the omnipresent threat of enemy ambushes make survival a constant challenge.

Eastward, the desert erosion stops abruptly at an artificial greenbelt—overgrown, abandoned parks and gardens from the old world. Wildflowers, tall grasses, and crumbling fountains meet spreading sand, blending hope with decay.

The Forgotten Gardens

West of Ashara rises a broken plateau: steep cliffs, jagged stones, and ancient pathways snaked with hardy weeds. Dangerous wildlife and labyrinthine canyons make this a locale for only the bravest explorers.

The Shattered Mesa

In the scorched heart of the planet’s last desert frontier, factions rise from the ashes of a shattered civilization. You are a rogue operative caught between warring clans, black-market warlords, and a mysterious tech syndicate buried beneath the sand.
