Bristling with heavy spikes and a brooding sky this is a great RA3 map with consistent styling, good lighting and texturing although there are some slight texturing problems on curves. The layout shows a good understanding of just what RA3 is about. The three Rocket Arena levels are good for 1on1, great for 2on2, and there is a Clan Arena of the same quality included. The r_speeds are very border line on most of the arenas so some may have minor frame rate problems. Clip brushes on some of the wall supports would have been good.

Grab it and find a server running this map! (Requires the RA3 mod)

I like RA3, I like good maps, such as yours!

It's an 8 for me, since some of the corridors in the clan arena are a bit thight, too tight and there are some texturing problems, like the z-buffer conflicts on the towers. However, soild job and a really ggod addition to ra3!

Man. What's with the lack of updates around here lately? Tig?

Nice map btw Charon. I dug the tunnels that had the moving scale like texture. Almost like being inside a snake or something. :)

Hi, I saw your map, and I think that the map environment is okay, but you shouldn't use too much same textures like that gray texture.

I can't say anything else but it's all just nice work.

Haven't played haven't tested it.. but referring to this ONE picture I'll give you an 8.

Well this is a nice map, but:

- textures could be a little more expressive, kinda like everyone with dark hair no variiety

- cool gameplay, ought to convert for Team deathmatch

- I didn't have any trouble with r_speeds or fps 933 w/ GeForce DDR

- pretty good work I think, but who am I.

Rah!

I really like these maps. Absolutely beautiful and a really cool feel. I really like the layout. I must confess I'm not a big fan of the RA mod, but I like playing the mod on these maps. They are smaller and that means the action is close up. I dig it. Hate those "over in the next valley rail king maps" that are so prevalent on mose RA3 servers. Very nice job Charon.

ALS, you've got to be kidding. spectral tower has amazing gameplay. it gets played over and over on my server. just awesome.

The look is great. Ive had good games in the 1v1's and the CA. My only complaint with this map is that there arent location entities or whatever you need so that you can tell your team where you are. Or was that changed?

This map is very nice, but lacks of good gameplay!

None of the arenas are inspiring at all. You don’t get that drive to keep up playing in them. The author has spent too much time on details instead of good gameplay!

I’ve been following the ra3 custom maps and so far only 2maps have got the chance to stay on my HD. SgtGhost’s "Home base of the assassins" and Firestarter "Frag like an Egyptian"! You’ll find awesome gameplay in both of them!

Glad to see the site getting up some good RA3 maps.

This one is very nice. The only thing that is a negative to me is that the CA map is a bit too hard to navigate quickly once it gets to the end, unlike some of the other big maps like MAP1 and MAP4.

Overall, a great map, though, with a really moody feel.

This is still my favorite RA3 Map other than the excellent first map by firestarter. The Clan Arena is just massive and is great for gameplay and if you can use the rail well enough, you 0wnz. I wish that more servers would play custom maps, the ones that came with the mod tire very quickly. This is a great map, I also recommend the new map by firestarter, frag like an egyption. Get this map now.
