Timeline

Spider Web v1.0.1

A central arena surrounded by two interlinked, enclosed corridors in a 'spiders web' design. There are no doors or platforms to get in the way here, so the action can get pretty fast and furious. This one is big enough to support 8 players, but the ammo would be a little light for the trigger happy. M2 compatible for KotH and EMfH games.

Stone Forest

A medium sized circular arena, covered with a regular grid of tall pillars (the stone forest). The center of the arena contains a shallow water filled trough forming the hill with shield rechargers on either side. Suicide rates are bound to be high. Watch for the teleporters to get a better vantage point over the arena.

The Pain Years v1.0

A circular arena with lots of shallow staircases in rings around it. Decent flow.

The Pfhor Stages of Death

A grid of narrow corridors with a crusher room in each corner that is pressure operated, or can be locked down on your opponents. A slightly 5D space corridor leads out from the grid to a medium sized arena that forms the hill and initially holds some of the heavier weaponary.

The Waters of Fortune?

A large, castle-like structure, overlooking and surrounded by a water filled moat. The large arena inside the castle has a central pool that leads outside through underwater tunnels, and four towers rising up from the moat area provide passageways back inside. The mono, sand-colored texturing can make it difficult to judge distances, although there's a lot of lighting/shadow detail, which helps out. A second copy of the map is set up with portions of the lighting changing from daylight to night time over a period of minutes, leading to different styles of play. There's a couple of larg...

Zig Eddy Maps

Three levels, all pretty large. The texture choices might give you a headache after a while, and small groups would have trouble staying busy, but for bigger groups, these can be fun. The third one, especially, shows some real promise. (Anyone who'd take the time to write "Kill" in scenery has way too much time on their hands...)

"Forth, Standoffish"

Package includes two films both of which show solo play against Rocket Bob's. KOTH play with a very difficult Hill to defend. Will support two players, crowded at 6.

Dispatch Map

Four map levels here; one solo, two net (sort of) and one novelty. This is from/is the original Dispatch scenario (#1) for solo play called Up Periscope. Pattern Buffer in a Net game? Next level (cmd/cntrl) opens to a Tau Cetu intro screen and it's a map you've seen but now called Speed Bump, amount of ammo suggests net play. Level three (cmd/cntrl) is Bob's Screen Saver, just let it run, don't play. Pretty amusing. Up Periscope (4) is a shortened version of longer Up Periscope, but in water medium with Troopers & PB

Evil: Polygonal Carnage

Polygons is right! Many many many, tied together in water medium. Slim ammo, freestanding islands to defend as perhaps little bitty KOTHs type play.

Foxbase Alpha

Two Maps, TI application rules! Read Me has to be converted, it's a dialog in movie format; but what a Read Me! Everything here, explicit instructions. Twenty minutes play recommended with players/teams only way to go. Towers/Castles with jails and various entrys, switches to lock in/lock out opponents, raise/lower a drawbridge. Beautiful layout, leaping to ledges allowed! Winding paths puts one in harms way from any Team's sniper who has the 'base'. 1x here, 2x there. Advantage; more ammo in certain areas. Infinity map, exactamundo layout, textures only difference. Appeared in m...
