Island Capture - Small
One of the widest maps in the game, Volcano sized small is rarely played today because it is overshadowed by the new Carrier DLC maps. It remains an interesting map, however, with lots of base firepower and lots of troop transports. This can make for exciting landing support bouts: the four supply bases on this map are easy to get a hold of, but tough to take, thanks to the massive shoreguns (labelled "battery" in-game) each base has. You'll need as much firepower as you can muster to take the enemy's supply bases. Keep in mind that the only airfield on this map is the southern middle base, so you may want to pick a seabourne unlock.

Island Capture - Medium
Medium Volcano is a lot like Dreadnought, but the secondary bases that players obtain have submarines. These help against battleships from the centre island, and can help stall them long enough for your team to mass a counterattack. Players will definitely want the centre island, but be aware that it is nested in a volcanic caldera, and will have to go around it in order to get to the fight.

This map is filled with multiple glitches, including the following:
 * The G5N Liz and the Ohka Carrier appear as unlocks, but no Headquarters can spawn them.
 * An embarrassing typo states "HQ 19" instead of "HQ 09"
 * All the supply bases are improperly labelled Headquarters on the Tactical Map.

Note that HQs 2 to 5 are actually supply bases, and do not spawn any units.

Island Capture - Large
Large is exactly what it says on the tin - extremely large. Unlike most maps, however, the centre island is not as important as it is in other maps. This is because battleships and troop transports are the only things it can spawn. This is the only base where you can spawn battleships, so players may want to opt out of battleships and focus on heavy cruiser upgrades. The outer bases can spawn patrol boats and submarines, which will be perfect to use against battleships spawned from the centre base. The southernmost base contains the only airfield on this map aside from the ones at the players' start positions. Whoever controls the southern airfield will be able to project air power almost mapwide. The bases in the corners are good fallback positions or a place to amass a strike force to take the middle islands.

Airfields behave somewhat differently on this map; unlike every other airfield, airfields on this map can be destroyed with a burst of machine gun fire. As with the previous incarnation of Volcano, the supply bases are erroneously marked as Headquarters.

Note: Headquarters 2, 3, 5, 6, 12, 13, 16, and 17 are actually supply bases and do not spawn units.
