Games are played on gaming locations named maps. Maps vary in size, design, terrain, location, weather and land leveling. Each map offers different tactics to different tanks. Use these tactics to your advantage and you will master the battlefields. However, in the special section, most were only released for a limited time so tactics won't be included in those certain maps. Most of the others will have tactics, and these tactics, if used effectively, shall help you win games and get kills. Although higher random games will see almost all maps in rotation, there are special cases, particularly for low tiers and other game modes.
The article describes these in more detail. A large abbey and town fill the centre of the map with three roads allowing passage from the north and south, and includes an elevated firing position in the abbey's courtyard at the highest point on the hill. West of the town is an elongated hill with several positions allowing fire down into the town.
Further west, and past the hill, is a valley offering significant protection against artillery fire. East of the town lies a curved cliff road which affords shielding from most tank and artillery fire, but forces attackers to travel in a single path. The central town is a rather contested hotpoint so expect a majority of both players to clash between the buildings. The hills and surrounding forests however can make ideal ambushing grounds for TDs or SPGs to conceal themselves. Starting in the north and south, both teams are connected through a valley on the extreme west of the map. Large boulders offer cover south of the valley, and a small town provides cover to the north.
The eastern portion of the map is elevated, with two large jutting hills providing cover from enemy fire. Both sides start at either end of a large plateau with a lighthouse propped on top of a small hill. The small valley to the west is a bottleneck and should be expecting Heavy Tanks to contest. The cliffs provided a superior vantage point to harrass the skirmish below but run the risk of artillery, whom can sit back and nail targets in the open. The same as Prokhorovka but with a more war-torn appearance. Fighters fly overhead and there are sound effects for machine gun fire.The hill is a good place for heavies, and once it has been taken control of, a very good sniping position.
Scouts end up having a standoff in the centre of the field, and there is a 'magical bush' along the long road that many find effective for passive scouting. Medium tanks and tank destroyers can do well on the road, and if it is encounter, then beware the cap circle. The map is a combination of open spaces and irregular terrain. Meandering narrow streets of the seaport on the flank can be surprisingly advantageous.
Sloping hills covered with bushes offer excellent ambush opportunities. This is a hard map, and can be quite boring too. A lot of light and fast medium tanks head into the central ridge of the map and have a standoff, while some heavies head to the town and others head around to a small gully that runs along the edge of the map. Other mediums and especially TDs head here too, and they can do very well.
Huge mountains and narrow valleys offer great advantages in a battle. You can engage in a fire duel across the gulf or enter a close quarter battle at the nearest port town or flank and capture enemy base. This is a tricky map to play, and there are two main combat zones. A huge hill in the north ends of being a vital strategic point, if you do not successfully protect or take this then you will lose, there is no question of it. The other main point of combat is down the other side of the map, where heavies slug it out for a while. Swamps, rocks, and cliffs determine major avenues of approach on this map.
This map, with sparse protection and no buildings, gives the combat advantage to artillery. Concentrate your attacks along the path of your main advance, while conducting delaying and defensive actions along the rest of your front lines. This is a bit of a strange map, and can be hard to play, especially for beginners. There is one main piece of advice to give, however. Unless you are a fast scout and you know what you are doing, or it is late game and your team has secured the area, DO NOT cross the central swamp area.
It is a death trap, particularly for slow-moving or low-tiered tanks. An isolated mountain valley on one flank and city blocks on the other allow you to employ either urban or rural tactics. The large valley offers the sole contest point as either side struggle through the bottleneck. A small mountain trail winds along, next to the water side but offer little to no cover from snipers attacking from the town on the other side.
Lights can use the town to dart around enemy survelliance but run the risk of being shotgunned by cunning SPGs using it to conceal themselves from enemy fire. In the centre of the map there is a large bog lake.
A railway bridge and a fording side on the one flank allow to defend the area using scarce forces, and to concentrate main forces on the other flank. This is a hard map, as victory depends on whether your team secured both flanks, or alternatively, secured one while holding off the enemy on the other. Which side to go on is entirely choice, and you see tanks of all kinds going into the city and the bridge.
This is a good fun map, but it can be frustrating, especially if you are slow moving. Initial staging areas are separated by a wide open field, ideal for artillery and defensive operations. Make use of flanking maneuvers and natural defenses like woods, hills, and farmhouses, as these can be decisive. Another option is a well-coordinated high-speed combined arms attack across the field which could bring victory, but at the risk of a bloody loss. Colloquially also known as 'Campinovka' for the tendency of most players to just sit behind cover on their side of the starting field and snipe each other. A flat hilltop in the center of this map provides the obvious central point of contest on this map. Nestled in the canyon northeast of the hill is the small village of Pagorki; offering a tempting route with plenty of cover, but one that is exposed if the enemy controls the hill.
West of the hill, surrounded by shallow water, is a small island which offers good cover while providing a large fire zone. While the island is protected from the hill, it is, for the most part, vulnerable to flanking attacks or fire from multiple angles. The island cover is solid, but not particularly large. Watch for the plateau, to the north of the map, which is often offering a good vantage point for TDs and Artillery; Especially being a viewpoint over the battlefield around it. A large map with many turns and rough ground. The bridge near the center features natural choke points on both sides, and provides a good sniping position against opponents in the north passes if held.
There are small positions for artillery near the bases, though artillery may have difficulty due to the terrain. Heavies generally choose the side that has a more open view of the shallow lake, and not many people end up going down the other side, so it has some flanking opportunities. The bridge is an area to be wary of, not just because of other tanks, but because of the fact that it is so easy to kill yourself by accidentally driving off it. A small town dominates the centre of the map, with a large forest providing concealment in the east and high ground to the west. The forest provides effective concealment, but lacks cover from fire; whereas the town has plentiful cover, but lacks concealment. Murovanka is a hard map to play, and quite unpredictable. If it is Encounter, then there will be chaos around the capture circle, but otherwise the fighting is even on both sides.
In a lower team game I have seen successful flanking maneuvers by fast scouts, who can cause chaos at the back. A French map introduced to random battles in patch 9.16. The map features a large, open area in the north with bushes located near the endpoints of the central buildings, a bush-covered hill on either side, and a small mound at the center of the far north end. Several avenues on either side of the map lead down to the center of the map, which does not have much in the way of cover, but can allow for spotting & sniping down said avenues if used correctly. The south end of the map consists of a city area (again, with avenues leading to the center) and a smaller, semi-open area with several buildings and rubble mounds for cover, a bridge, and two different levels of terrain elevation (as a result of the bridge and its' ending points) around the south end. A rolling area, dominated by a couple of hills. The village of Redshire gives places to hide from hill to its northeast.
Artillery will play a powerful role on this map. At the beginning of the game, many light tanks will rush the central capture circle (in encounter). This should be stopped as soon as possible, as it can create some serious problems later. Many mediums and some heavies head to the castle, this can be a crucial control point but generally ends up as a stalemate.
The other side of the map is generally dominated by heavies, and is also crucial. This map is quite hard to play, but it can be very fun. Concentric city streets, along with dense forests and bushes in the overgrown park allow for hidden maneuvers and redeployment of your troops.
Although artillery fire is of limited use in the city, the debris provides effective cover for your troops. Many lights and mediums head to the tiny town on the main road, this is generally a standoff until the late-game. Heavies of course go to battle in the city, and this is the deciding factor of the battle. If you ca get some tanks around the back side of the church then you can create alot of chaos. This coastal area is bounded by ocean and mountains.
A railroad crosses the territory from north to south. Small hills on the western flank are favorable for a swift attack. A straight road connecting the bases passes through a small town, which often becomes a contested piece of terrain. There is also a low ground beside the town, witch could use for flanking the west and the middle. The bases are protected by the hills from direct attacks. However, the flanks of the bases are insecure and must be protected.
A wonderful map combining the best of both worlds. The west side is open fields with little cover, excellent for quick flanks around the side for those looking for an early victory. To the east, the town offers concealment and cover for those brave enough to enter its confines. Most of the fighting will happen in the town. Unless you are a light tank or know you are not going to be spotted DO NOT go out into the central field. Also, DO NOT go down the strip behind the city, there will be death on swift wings waiting for you there.
Successful manouvers have been made over the hills on the north of the map, and these can be very game-changing if successful. Overall, this is a fun map that if you play well you can really play well. A seemingly endless open expanse of fields and hills, scattered through this farmland-esque map.

Open fields, varying ditches, and small hills and rises litter this map, allowing for some prime spots to lay ambushes. Long, open fields are great for those who prefer long-distance combat, with little cover available to your target. Just remember; This works both ways. This map generally ends with one team taking one flank, and one taking the other.
It is important that both are taken. No matter how tempting it is, DO NOT go down the central road until the late game, it is guaranteed suicide. A mountain in the east offers the possibility of dominating from the high ground, while the central part of the map offers a wide range of tactical advantages. The village in the west could offer some linear combat for heavy tanks. Heavy tanks generally end up around a large rocky hill to the west, fighting along a gully there. The bridge in the middle can be good place for lightning maneuvers into the enemy base, but these should be done with caution. The other main point of conflict is the hill in the East, where many tanks go and fight around a couple of small rocks.
This can be a very dangerous place for people who are not aware of what is going on around them. The map has many, many sniping positions that can be used well, and Spgs generally hang out at the back. This is a very good and fun map, but it can be challenging too.
A wonderfully lush area, Westfield features forests, fields, farmland, and multiple villages throughout the map. Included is a large war-damaged bridge crossing the eastern valley. Plentiful ridges give ambush positions along nearly every route, and large fields can leave a tank vulnerable when moving between positions. It is not recommended to go down the central valley unless you are a scout or it is the very late game, as it is a pretty useless area. Heavy tanks, Strong Mediums and some Tank Destroyers en up fighting on the hills next to the small town. Fast mediums and Fast Tank Destroyers can have a good game by going over to the other side of the valley, although they amy need scouts over here to perform well.
The Bridge on center of this map is connected until 6.4 patch. This map depicts an industrial city devastated by war. A railway embankment divides the map in two, making it possible to concentrate forces for an attack or counterattack. The railway lines at one end of the map tend to have a lot of camping TDs, exercise caution when taking this route. A lot of heavy tank conflicts happen at the railway bridge at the other end, this usually takes the form of a stalemate until someone has the courage to push forwards.
The railway line at the center of the map is a very long standoff, occasionally tanks poke over the top and try to hit something, unless the enemy team is distracted or fairly incompetent then this is a bad strategy. This is a very bad map for SPGs, as there are a lot of buildings in the way of shots. A large river splits this map in half, with three bridges acting as choke points between the halves. A small town surrounds the center bridge, while the north and south bridges have fewer buildings providing cover. A large castle overlooks the west half of the map on a large hilltop, offering cover and supporting fire positions. Hills overlook the city in the east, with sufficient vegetation to provide some concealment for tanks.
This map is notorious for having a lot of people drowned themselves while tried to crossing the river. A large valley filled with rocks, vegetation, and a small village surrounding a dried out river bed separate the two teams. The large hills on either side of the valley offer many firing positions, and very little cover in the valley will protect a large tank completely against all positions. Regardless of approach, attackers will face a long climb into the enemy's camp, and effective use of the cover en route is essential.
The northern approach offers plentiful protection to attack either hill, but the southern approach makes up for lack of protection with shorter distances and better concealment. A mostly open map offering little concealment, but providing plentiful cover due to the large number of sand dunes. Three small villages provide temporary cover at best, but are easily destroyed, so they must be used cautiously.
Each flag is well protected with a ridge offering defenders cover, concealment, and excellent firing positions. Plentiful cover allows an excellent arena for run and gun tactics while offering many routes for tanks to engage the enemy and make use of their mobility.
Grand Battle Maps. Nebelburg is a 1.4x1.4km summer map with mixed terrain and designed specifically for Grand Battles. It offers enough space for all 60 players to maneuver.
The middle area, dominated by a hill, is well suited for scouts. Heavy hitters and TDs can use the buildings and streets of the town in the west to their advantage, especially in close combat. Hilly areas in the east lend ample tactical opportunities to medium tanks and others that perform well on uneven terrain, thanks to solid gun depression and turret armor.
For the 2016 April Fools game mode, a game type called Moon Mayhem was released. This allowed players to use the IS 8-Ball tank to do battle on the face of the Moon. The map consisted of craters and explosive barrels with six lava pits to drown in on each corner and right and left sides of the map. During the match random events would occur such as a 'Meteor shower' that if caught in could kill a tank instantly. Other events would be a 'Bounce' event hurling players into the air and a 'Impulse' that sent players flying in a random direction.
A more or less unique map in that the teams do not start near the flags, Komarin offers multiple tactical options. The teams start in the north and south, divided by rivers offering three routes. The rivers itself are mostly impassable.
The middle bridge is also only accessible once a heavy tank clears the obstacles by driving over them or if someone clears them with HE ammo. The center route is a large, elevated, and wooded island connected by bridge to the south, and offers firing positions to nearly the entire map, but at the cost of being exposed if spotted.
A small village on both the west and east side of the map offer attackers valuable cover en route to the flag, but leave any tank passing the village exposed to covered and concealed defenders once they leave the village. This map was removed from game in patch 9.8 for the second time since it's creation. The setting is an industrial area of a port city. Teams begin the battle surrounded by factory buildings, warehouses, and docks. An open space in the center of the map consists of a hilly, open area and railroad tracks. Train cars can provide cover during combat. The most direct route to the enemy base is along the two highway bridges above the railway tracks.
Common tactics on this map might include ambush and firing from defilade positions. Surprise attacks to the enemy's rear can break a deadlock.
This map was completely removed in patch 8.11. Flank routes offer great opportunities for surprise attacks and diversionary operations. A mire in the centre is not only an obstacle, but also an important tactical location. There is a large rock formation to the North of the map, which creates opportunities for fast medium tank combat.
Tank destroyers either follow the mediums or he heavies, or they camp around the swamp, waiting for faster tanks that either attempt to cross the swamp or try to flank around the northern rock formation. Spg's can generally be found along the beaches of the boardwalks. Heavy tanks generally head into the small town in the south. Unless it is late game or very early, DO NOT cross the central swamp, you will die.
