Eder Dam (Multiplayer)

Eder Dam is a playable Map in Online Multiplayer games for Call of Duty 3, based on the site of the actual Eder Dam in Kellerwald, Germany.

It is one of the more popular Maps for Online Multiplayer games on the Playstation 2, along with Les Ormes and, to a lesser extent, Rouen.

Players may operate jeeps, as either driver, passenger or gunner. The driver may not use any weapons, but he can run over the enemy, causing instant death. The passenger may use any weapons he is carrying, albeit with a limited firing arc. The gunner uses the jeep's turreted .50 cal. machinegun, a devastating weapon with excellent range and firepower.

The jeeps can be destroyed by incoming fire, causing them to explode, killing the crew immediately. Any other personnel nearby may also be killed and/or wounded by the explosion. For this reason, jeeps can sometimes be used in a "suicide attack" on a highly-concentrated group of enemies; they will often fire at the incoming vehicle, which then explodes at close range.

There are several structures that can be used for cover, including a small bunker complex and a two-story building, but much of the action generally centers on the partially-destroyed bridge. Players can fight not only on top of the bridge, but inside of it as well, in a maintenance shaft.
