Unlike other maps in the update, this map has the unique mechanic in which the VIP has only one life, and him getting killed once will result in RED team's victory. BLU team will have to safely escort him to his car within the time limit, which may result in costly sacrifices that the [[Civilian]] is willing to make.

The map is divided into four small sections going from BLU side to RED side. Outside BLU spawn is a horizontal slice of rail track, leading into another slice of rail inside a warehouse.

VIP's wellbeing is of utmost importance in this map, and constant watch over him and everything around is recommended. [[Spy]] is a deadly threat that can be the determining factor of the game, thus having a [[Pyro]] nearby constantly checking for spies is useful. Keeping civilian out of sightlines and the frontlines, while taking down the RED team's defences will ensure BLU team progressing towards the objective.
