Map Overview | |
“ | The second of our Two Cities finds the mercs defending the Medic's vaguely European hometown of Rottenburg — a sprawling village famous for its centuries-old traditions of 1) chasing the next in the resident lineage of mad doctors out of town with torches and pitchforks whenever they swapped out too many super-charged baboon hearts, and 2) never having been attacked by an army of robots.
Traditions will fall, as will Rottenburg itself if the mercs can't defend its twisting cobblestone streets and iconic towers from Gray Mann's robot onslaught.

Trivia
- Rottenburg is given to be the Medic's hometown, while his official profile also states that he was raised in Stuttgart, Germany. There are several similarly named places in Germany; a few are within or near Stuttgart:
- Rotenberg is an old, small village actually within Stuttgart.
- Rottenburg am Neckar is a city 38 km (24 m) southeast of and geopolitically linked with Stuttgart.
- Rothenburg ob der Tauber (literally "Red Fortress") is a city 95 km (59 m) northeast of Stuttgart, famous for its roles as a film location for a number of movie and as a model for a number of videogames. The buildings in the Rottenburg map and in this Bavarian Rothenburg have remarkable similarity in the stone color and in the general architecture.
- Rottenburg an der Laaber is a town 209km (130 m) east of Stuttgart, much closer to Munich.
- Mann vs. Machine: The Sound of Medicine takes place in a modified version of Rottenburg.
- In the Operating theater seen from the spawn room facing the bombpoint, a skeleton arm in the far left corner and a cropped picture of the Anatomy of a Heavy Weapons Guy poster in the center of the room can be seen.
- Behind the front tower, a dark area under a roof contains a crate, with Mad Milk bottles, syringes, and a Syringe Gun lying on it, hinting at the Mad Milk Syringes upgrade for the Medic.
