Description:

Crossing the Rhine:
A 4 player map: This map takes an old concept an puts a new twist on it. This map
is simply a single bridge crossing a river, but the bridge in this map is bigger than
any other maps bridge and is also indestructible. This is a narrow map with almost all
control points on the bridge. There is some city and industrial zone to protect the
main bases.
