==Trivia==
*An easter egg can be activated on this map which shows a [[sandworm]] devouring a mining platform in the distance. This is a reference to the 1965 novel [[Wikipedia:Dune (novel)|Dune]]. To trigger the easter egg, the protruding platform in the center pit of the map must be broken (such as by a ground pound). This will raise two explosive cores from their cowlings on the perimeter of the map. Destroy both of these cores and watch the mining platform by the sunset.
