In The Black maps

All In The Black Battlespaces — Mars, Asteroid Belt, Saturn, Titan & Enceladus

Tactics, cover guides and ship picks for every In The Black map in the May 2026 EA build.

Mars Orbital In The Black battlespace

Mars Orbital

Open-space BloodSport arena above Mars. No cover, long sightlines — railguns dominate. Light hulls must keep moving.

Avoid linear vectors. Always have a roll bias.
Hyperion Mk 3 rules from 8–12 km.
Pegasus drones get picked off here — leave them at home.

Asteroid Belt In The Black battlespace

Asteroid Belt

Dense rock field. Short sightlines, lots of cover. Best map for lights and ECM Pegasus.

Drift cold-thrust between rocks to break missile lock.
Kolibri Axe is the dominant pick here.
Heavy railguns waste their range — bring plasma instead.

Saturn Rings In The Black battlespace

Saturn Rings

Hazardous debris field with frequent micro-meteor showers. Visibility drops to 4 km in storm cycles.

Always carry Long AAM with passive seekers.
Avoid Mk 4 Hyperion — heat sinks struggle in storms.
Reus Comet is the most balanced pick here.

Titan Battlespace In The Black battlespace

Titan Battlespace

Low-orbit battlespace over Titan with persistent atmospheric drag debuffs. The only map where flight assist is mandatory.

Flight assist ON; drag will pull you off vector.
Pegasus Spooky drone carrier is unusually strong.
Cannon-heavy builds outperform laser builds here.

Enceladus In The Black battlespace

Enceladus

Ice geyser battlespace. Plumes briefly mask sensor signature — perfect for ECM Pegasus and stealth approach.

Time your approach through active plumes for 30% sensor reduction.
Hyperion is exposed without a Pegasus escort.
Best Recon contract map.
