Template:Maps In 2016, the Italian space research station in Matera was completely rebuilt to be the primary construction, launch, and recovery site for the European Federation Space Authority.

Assault & Conquest missions

Matera is an air force base with a long runway running diagonally across the center. Three uplinks to the west of the runway are somewhat isolated from the rest. A flanking strategy works well on this map for either side. Secure the uplink near your deployment zone (either Foxtrot or Whiskey) then pick up the three along the western side in a row: Alpha, Bravo, and Delta. During assault missions, be ready for some fast and hard combat right along the runway, which runs from one deployment zone to the other.

Sierra is right in the middle of the base complex, where it is easily defended by garrisoned infantry in the tower or other nearby buildings.

Send riflemen to one end of the row of western uplinks, then just continue down the row. Your riflemen can take care of any other infantry in the area - especially if you have upgraded them with snipers.

Since the runway is wide open, a lot of vehicle combat takes place right along it. Keep your gunships, tanks, and transports together for combined arms support.

Call in air strikes to attack hostile units. If you have level 3 air support, one air strike will destroy most hostile units, even if they are at full strength. They can even shoot down gunships!
