    Map Description

    Hey, this is my first completed map submitted to FH. My first map at attempting interlocking was a larger version of this one, but it failed. After some practice, I decided to give it another go, and came out with this. The G-S13, is a tribute to a multiplayer map of one of my favorite original Xbox games, Star Wars: Republic Commando. I can't find the disk
    but to my knowledge the map was named G-13. Although the multiplayer never caught on or was that great, this map was amazing, in the sense, that (in comparison to my map) instead of having "Man Cannons", the space in between was near-zero gravity, so if you jumped, you floated up and just basically floated around. My friend and I loved to jump by eachother with shotguns, and shoot the other in mid-air, and watch their body slowly drift away.

    Well obviously I couldn't recreate that, and the map was actually much larger, and I can't find any reference pictures, but I placed weapons in similar and original places, from the actual map, from Maulers, to Battle Rifles This map took some time to make, mostly to keep people from getting out, and for one of my first attempts at geo-merging and interlocking, it was hard to make things near perfect, but this is what I got, and am glad with the results.

    ___FINAL______________________________________________________

    The map is mainly 2-8 players, though 6 seems like the fairest number. It's a small map, with several unique geographical structures. Cover is abundant, but you can never be fully protected. Featuring mostly close-to medium range weapons, strategy as a team is key, or movement on your
    feet when alone. Due to it's small nature, going from side to side doesn't take too long, but the "Man Cannons" can get you from side to side almost instantly, but also are narrow in their path. It's all about keeping you're side protected, while pushing the enemy toward you.

    So, keep you're guard up, and have fun. Please, leave a review below, it would be much appreciated. If you wish to play with me, send me a friend request, my GT is xX5w33ny70ddXx

    Very nice map, I agree that the man cannons are the distinguishable items on this map and they make game play really interesting. Good job with this map

    Thanks ^^

    Well, I think the most bumpy stuff is the geo-merged boxes, and those were a *****. The "Shove it down with another box" technique never works for me, the boxes disappear into the ground, so I had to use the door method, but it's hard to keep that stuff even. Thanks anyways.

    Yes! Someone else who knows it! Sadly, I feel like I did that great map shame, but then again, what could I do? =/

    Haha, thank you.

    Ya, those cannons were one of the first things I did on this map after getting the boxes all set. And that X was hard to pull off, but I think it looked good.

    I like the pic.
    Yay =D Another download.


    Thanks for all the great reviews so far, keep them coming, and I have another idea on the way, but before I get immersed in that, feel free to Inv. me to play.
