[Xiomera]

For all those participating in the battle of Zapotlán: Please review the map below. It shows the city, as well as the areas currently under Imperial control, and allied control, as of October 2nd. Allied forces would be in control of most of the city at this point, but would be facing increasingly challenging urban combat the closer they advance into the city center.



Reference key: Circles represent the original landing zones. Squares represent naval force deployments. After the first day of fighting, Imperial naval forces at Zapotlán would have been destroyed and no longer a factor. Allied forces would also be in control of the Zapotlán naval base.

Green = Kerlian forces
Orange = Milintican and other volunteers
Black = Xiomeran loyalist forces
Purple = Eirian forces
Blue = Legionite forces
Red = Xiomeran Imperial forces

Troop movements: Allied forces are moving in a pincer formation from west and east into the city center. Remaining Imperial defenders are in the city center, around the Zapotlán airport, and in the two large parks south and east of the city. Xochiuhue's forces are attempting to reinforce the Zapotlán defenses by means of the six major highways from the south and east.

Important locations:

Fort Ucahuac: medium-sized Army base near the city center, still under Imperial control
Fort Coatepetl: large Army base and Zapotlán defense HQ, still under Imperial control
Shoreline Defense Command: medium-sized joint Navy/Army base and linchpin of Zapotlán coastal defenses, still under Imperial control
Huaxtihe Air Base: Air Force base defending Zapotlán, currently under control of allied forces
Cuautepan Defense Islands: two fortified islands off the coast, currently under control of allied forces
Zapotlán West and East Regional Parks: two large wooded areas, currently heavily fortified by defending Imperial troops
Intra-Xiomera Canal: a major waterway connecting the Tenebric Ocean to the South Xiomeran Sea; vital shipping link and transit point
