I agree with most of the comments here. Good looking (though kinda monotone) vaguely gothic map with some verticality and very well-interconnected areas. The only problem, and it's a big one, is in 1v1 the entire round revolves around getting the MH and defending that center intersection where it appears.

I can't help but feel that that gameplay would be improved if it was a RA instead, or if it was a YA, and the YAs were replaced with green ones. That would encourage skirmishes elsewhere in the map.

If you're into gothic maps this one is a keeper. The only thing preventing this from being flawless are the bots not utilizing the entire map but they still function well regardless. Love it!

@Whatscheiser : You are correct. Installing this map will change the visuals on other maps for that light model. Feel welcome to submit a patch.

This map is incredible, super well executed... one problem I have noticed (and it could just be due to the amount of mods I've got in baseq3) it seems like the gratelamp textures included with this map breaks the texture transparency for that model. I had to create a patch for this level in my baseq3 folder that supplants it with the greatelamp textures included with the High Quality Quake mod.
{EDIT}
Actually I just noticed, you can see what I am referring to in the level shot here.

because of the design and construction this plays just as well in vq3 as cpma. there is only one important cpm route that vq3 misses out on: the stair jump to the ya in the lg room (but you could still use plasma to get to it). the greys work extremely well for player sighting however stumbling upon those bounce pads can be annoying. The one straight up to the gl level from the bottom of the map is soooo high; aesthetically it's a little odd and sometimes useful but maybe not so necessary. On the plus side: lots of opportunities for lightning to rail kills. Maybe the stairs could have been trimmed for alternative routing to avoid the bounce pads. But I don't think any of this really hurts the game play. dAde often uses rather strange combinations of weapons on his maps; it is good to see everything is used here. Really love the weapon spread.

When I saw the thumbnail I thought the author made the picture gray scale.

runs very smooth on my pc, and it's a different approach with the lack of color but it might have been better with more ambient sounds and if the bots didn't congregate mostly in that bottom room above the plasma gun. overall I enjoyed the map. :D

I really want to give a good review, but the r_speeds are so drastically high on my pc that I couldn't really get into it. From looking at it though....looks kickass=>

I really enjoyed this map. Great layout, item placement and something a little different with the visuals. I do think the lighting could have been better and bot-play could have have been improved but thats about all. Excellent map for a LAN.
