    Get The Pool Fix now! (Fixed minor soft kill overlap on tower.)


    For this map I wanted to make a large open air stadium that uses different tiers for different types of combat. As you move up they shift from close-range, to mid-range, to long. They can also all spill over into each other, and as everyone knows, you will usually want to have the high ground.

    A unique element of this map is the SkyBox. The box is filled with 2swords, 2fuel rods, and multiple over-shields. However, it is also completely rigged up demolition style. Each of the 4 rooms in the box have a large angled window looking out over one of the 4 wall towers.
    In the corner of each room there is a teleporter. The teleporter will transport the player to the back of whichever tower they are looking at. They will be able to first survey the scene, and then when the timing is right attack from behind with overpowered weapons and an over-shield.
    It seems like a huge advantage, however, there is also a grenade launcher placed on top of every tower. From the right range, with the right angle (not very difficult) an undetonated grenade round shot into the lift will blow the whole box to hell.
    The time it takes to move from looking out of the skybox window over into the teleporter is about the same as the time it takes for a fired grenade to hit the lift... So there could be some interesting Will Smyth Independence Day type scenarios taking place.

    As for how the rest of the map plays, I will leave that up to you to find out.
