* Notes *

This started as a small map that I was making to play on a LAN.
It turned out a little on the large size for one on one play.
It still works for one on one with my playing style...
Although it's called a tourney map there are three bots in the arena file.
There is good reason for this if you play against one bot you will soon rule the map as bots are still a lot on the dumb side.
Thus three are needed to give you a surprise and challenge.
