Small but well-formed is how I'd describe this base style map. The two raised flag bases face each other across a long hall that forms the central atrium, protected only by glass partitions. Four passageways run between the bases (which are reached by bounce pads), two at either end of the long central atrium.

Gameplay is intense even in 4-vs-4. Given that both the RL and YA spawn on the raised flag base platforms, flicking the bouncing attackers off the platforms as they come up is fairly straightforward, but the fact that there are gaps at the bottoms of the glass partitions means defenders can fire on each other easily across the central atrium.

All the weapons (except the BFG) are here, as well as a regen spawning in the middle of the central atrium. The textures are mostly id originals, with the occasional modification, and strong team colouring. The bots handle the level OK, though they avoid the outermost passageways between the bases. Needless to say, the small size of this map means there's nowhere to hide.

I'd recommend this map for 4-vs-4 LAN or server play, but it's also worth it if your stuck with bots. A nice, fun little level in a small download.

Tigs notes: A great, fun and well finished level. Perfect for small (2-4 player) CTF matches. Well worth grabbing.

I played this map with bots for a test run and I liked it a lot. I play instagib only and the server that I admin is a faster game than normal. *Evil Gemini* seems to work well for this style of play, especially since small CTF maps tend be what my friends desire. I'm going to put it on the server and see what they think of it. Thanks to the Mr. Lake.

Thanks so much guys! I'm really glad you all enjoy it.

I'm sad that I won't have time to do many more maps because of work, but trust me, next year you'll be playing a game that's worth the wait.

(Hehe... "Lakie")

If you have ever seen the Don Hertzfield animated short "Rejected", then you know the scene where two stick figures scream at each other while one's eye-socket pumps large quantities of blood all over the face of the other. Sadly, that was the inspiration of this map...so glad to see it paid off. :)

Thank you for all the compliments. This is currently my favorite map to play, and it's great to see other people enjoy it too. So thank you for downloading it and giving it a chance!

I'm not much of a CTF player myself but I liked the sound of this one. Haveing the flags so close together is a novel idea and it really works well here. The defenders job is just as hard as the attackers. Absolutely bags of fun to play. Grab it now :)

unique! i enjoy the different type of strategy you must use because the flags are so close together and not easily guarded!

i bet this would make a very good tourney map too....
