Timeline

Death Echo

Very large, complex map. Read Me has Spoiler/type info with total map layout. KOTH area, basement, ledges, sewage paths, stairs. Armory, Tower, elevators, etc. Supports Total Carnage, 6-8 players. No rechargers, a few Bob's. Moves fast but really spread out. Looks good, however, with nice attention to detail.

Deep Distance

If you've been on a search for TI Maps you may have seen this one. It's Terrific! Started as a solo map & evolved into a Net Map (for unknown reasons?). But it is great fun solo. Exploding Bob's everywhere, can you go the Distance? Has everything TI, lighting, chants, textures. Two 2x's. Great fun, big enough to support 8 players, maybe more. Think tag. Vast areas, stairway symmetry, small halls, sewage paths, transporter to off-map room for goodies. An area that could possibly support KOTH. You should have this in your TI Map collection, whatever the purpose.

Destination: Unknown

14 levels seven of which are Net levels. On level one, "When monsters are the Dreams", we had trouble with a bit of crashing, however level title is significant. Going on all ok.

Devil's Plaything

Large level area for tag but with impediments in the way of freestanding walls, all over. Reminds us of a level where one has to negotiate to somewhere else, but here, that's it, there is nowhere else. The lava ceiling kinda threw us. Thoughtfully includes Marathon Icons in package. We selected double 00 shotgun shells for this game.

Discotheque v2.5

A simple arena with funky strobe-like lighting. Should keep you guessing where that next target is...

Dome Sweet Dome

Read Me is important here. Large Arena with off shoots for ammo, weapons; supports KOTH, quantity of players as it is a large area. Offshoots, using quick as lightning elevators, lead to rooms w/transporters. Transporters lead to back hallways full of goodies (Blam!). Very clever design. Anybody camping out in a room is fair game, camping out indeed, during net play! Interesting layout, interesting ideas.

Dreadmore

Well this one will drive you crazy, keep that mojo going, frustrate you, excite you, make you curse the author, praise the author. More fun than a barrel of whacked out monkeys. Term picts are gorgeous, as is layout. A really great map maker. The Read Me alone is worth the download with its referrals to secrets etc. There are some problems in this 5 level game, mostly too tight, dead ends (although author says no) & too many Compilers that can't be annihilated in levels 2-3. Get caught between one of 'em and a wall and sayonara. Save often.

Egypt

Biggest damn net map you ever saw! Author says tested with two, good for 8 but Holy Mackerel!, there may be room for 10-15+! Multiple very large squares (playing fields) with pillars & various impediments, connected by a variety of ways; stairs, passageways, up/down & all around. Huge rooms with KOTH type possibilities, Ball is here as well. Lava pit is deadly, hate that! 2x-3x's lying about. And whacko Bobs for solo hero-types. For diehard straight arena players this may be a bit too much. Certainly a lot of thought & time went into this complex map.

Evil-Brancore Fortress

This map cracked up this reviewer so bad we doubt if we can be coherent in our description. It does contain aliens, who remain fairly well hidden.

Evil-Everything must Go! v1.0

Simple arena play, author says 4+ players. Ledges here & there & everywhere, good sniper spots. No particular defensive area but lots of room to maneuver, extra wide halls on backside of arena.
