Blood Spray

Everyone starts out in a small, rectangular room filled with TOZTers and 3x canisters. You teleport out from here to a small cylinder, with shelves along the sides... a teleporter at the bottom brings you back to the top. Simple in layout, more weapons than you'll ever need, brightly lit. Expect really, really high carnage rates.

Criss Cross

What it sounds like. An open arena with a raised cross in the center. Ammo and shotguns on the main floor, assault rifle one level up, all the big guns are a little harder to get to... See what you can do about getting the flamethrower with someone on your tail.

Foe Hammer

Shaped like a sledgehammer, with ammo at one head, the hill at the other, and SPNKRs at the bottom of the handle. Small enough that carnage should be extreme. Nice use of alien textures.

Four Dead Kings

A large arena with four hills. The hills are extremely vulnerable, from many sides, but only accessible from one point (each). Nice flow, and pretty to look at, as well. (You'll have to hunt for the teleporters the first time through...)

Incubus v1.6

A small central arena with a shielded hill (user-controllable), and some very easy-to-navigate passages around the outside. Bilaterally symmetrical, which makes it easy to lose your bearings... Very few places to hide, so don't take too long a breather! Update includes a couple of nasty traps for the two remaining safe places on this map...

M2 Suicide Infinity/NorKorh

It had to happen... here are the three Infinity demo levels (and one from Nor'Korh), remade for M2, in the suicide tradition. Some are recognizable, some are not... all yield extremely high death rates.

Meo My!

Two levels. Both are pretty intricate, although the first one has some problems on slower machines, due to its extreme size and openness. (It's a huge fortress, and would fit 20 players comfortably.) The readme is (very) misleading about Meo My!... don't give up on escaping the invincibility chamber. Secrets abound... The second level is well designed for KOH or Ball games. (There's a huge lower pool, which would be hard to fight in, except for the fact that all the SPNKRS are down there...)

PipeLine v1.1

A large central, waterfilled arena with a dry hill is surrounded by a matrix of passageways both above and below the waterline. Access to the hill is pretty nice for a water level. Update tweaks and aligns some textures.

Pud's Pit

A small arena with a sewage-filled pit in the center (hence the name), but most of the action seems to congregate in the side passages, where the weapons are... Drop back into the pit for ammo and a recharge canister. Keep an eye out for secret passages...

Romper Room

A huge, rambling level. There are a few funky textures, and it's really easy to get lost, but with a big enough group, there should be something for everyone. One thing's for sure-you'll never, ever, run out of ammo.

Too Young to Die... v1.1

Original version released in No Parole. This is a multi-level arena, with extremely fast-moving elevators bringing players to all levels. There's a small danger of non-regeneration due to the near-constant motion of the elevators, but otherwise, this is a really fast-paced level with plenty of weapons. Two versions-one with baddies, one without. Update adds new sounds, tweaks object placement.

Wash and Dry

Horrendously annoying water level (although that seems to be the point...) Four areas, separated by ledges... primary mode of transport is the water, which goes up and down a lot (and never when you want it to...).

What Ho! Jeeves

A short (okay, very short) but entertaining solo level, where you're a security officer on a cruise ship with a very proper AI. It won't take you long, but the terms are funny.

Solo Levels

Bob's Pfhort

A two-level solo scenario. The first level is quite playable (assuming you choose the proper direction to navigate the loop... otherwise, it's a bear). The second level is hellish. Lots o' baddies, which would be fine, except for a framerate-sucking HUGE water-filled room that crushed a Q800 on Major Damage... Still, it's worth the effort, because it's just plain fun. The AI is a no-nonsense guy, but if you listen to him, you'll get around...

Darius's NetMapPack

6 maps, mostly variations on Bungie's arena levels (M1 and M2). The biggest influences are Thunderdome, House of Pain, Everyone's Mortal But Me, and Waldo World. Generally nice construction, and plenty of weapons.

Fandango

As the readme says, it's in the Everyone's Mortal genre, except the area surrounding the hill is filled with deep water. The whole map's spread out a bit, since it was designed using the (enclosed) LTI physics model, which adds a bit to your jumping capabilities, among other things. Some very nice sniping positions.

M2 Suicide v18

Three more from the long-quiet suicide master. The first one is extremely aptly named, but the other two are quite fun. Death awaits you...

OU812

A precursor to Good Day 2 Die, this is a pretty fun large map. This one favors the player who can change vertical targets easily... and it helps to know where the access to the secret areas comes from. Plays best with bigger groups, but 3 should have fun, as well.
