    Rue De Elba

    By xSharpshooter94 (Design) & Turbo Gerbil (formatting)

    Elba:

    1: residence of Napoléon Bonaparte after his first abdication May 14, 1814 to February 26, 1815

    2: a place or state of exile

    Sharpshooter here, with my never released map. This map was made by me and !Nikheizen(turbo) and was only released for a matter of minutes. But ive decided to release the map for the public. It is alright, nothing special but It is my best work so far. It is called Rue De Elba. It is a large semi-symmetrical map for 2-10 players. In this my best map to date I decided to take the “DTL way of forging”. This means that you build a great aesthetic piece and then build a map around it. So for this map I made a Giant semi-arch. Turbo and I decided that the high-ground was too much of an advantage so we decided to cut your access to the top part of the arch. Another main part of this map is the mancannons. This map uses the entire of Foundry (not including the back hallways) and to better move the players around I included 4 different mancannons to help you move around the map. Both spawns have cannons that launch you across the map to the other side of your side. The other cannon on your side launches you over the arch (pillar) to the opponents’ side. This map has a lot of aesthetic pieces, including several interlocked and geo-merged boxes at angles that look cool and adds a different aspect of game play. Speaking of aesthetics, I would like to give credit to Tex for a fence wall, mancannon combo that I took from a “project” map. The game play is always fast paced and fun. Although the map is formatted for all competitive gametypes, the most fun besides slayer, is one-flag and territories and I highly suggest that you get at least one game of each sometime in the future, if you don’t you will deprive yourself of a great experience.s/

    Okay thanks for the comment and random blurb
    That is exactly what i was going for and the whole idea behind this is that if you figure out the mancannons you will own this mapo\
    Thank you and thats insanes favorite too, the mancannon cannon

    Overall:5/5
    Interlocking:5/5
    Geo Merging:5/5

    looks like a good map. the interlocking is good and there is suffent cover for a territories game but parts look kinda sloppy and fixing them would help
