Download Coventry HD Video Clip of Coventry - Be sure to click the HD button after pressing play YouTube - Coventry My starting concept for the map was to try and create a large Sandbox map that had a similar feel as Headlong from H2. I wanted to create a very large and imposing base that had to be scaled and cleared. I started the map in the base's stairwell which actually does have a similar look to Headlong, but from there I branched out and tried to make something original that lent itself to recreating those epic Headlong base charges. Coventry was constructed on the main(middle) floor of Sandbox. It is an asymmetric map that was designed with one sided gametypes in mind. The attackers spawn on one sided of the map near the com tower and the defenders spawn inside a massive "base" structure. The top of the base is open and four stories high. Ways up include a three story windowed and enclosed stair well, three tube elevators(each going to a different floor), and an elevated man cannon platform that allows risk taking attackers to launch themselves just over the defensive walls. The cover approaching the base varies and includes a com tower and monitoring station(attacker spawn), The base breaching man cannon tower, and a shielded river path among others. The base towers over the landscape, so be sure to keep an eye out above you as you move in. Gametypes: 1. Slayer/Team Slayer 2. One Flag 3. One Bomb 4. KOTH 5. Oddball 6. VIP 7. Territories 8. Infection Weapons: 1. 10 BR's 2. 2 Brute Shots 3. 2 Sniper Rifles 4. 1 Mauler 5. 2 Needlers 6. 1 Shotgun Equipment: 1. 1 Power Drains 2. 2 Regenerators 3. 6 Plasma Grenades 4. 2 Bubble Shields 5. 1 Flare Please enjoy Coventry.

Wow, this is amazing. I think this should be featured, but thats just me... I dont really see anything to improve. I love your use of tin cups because it look great what you did with them. All the interlocking looks perfect and it looks great for assualt. 10/10 for me and Im going to play it once I make room. Not now im sleepy...
1 mauler and 1 shotgun is not the way to go, my friend. Remove teh shotgunz nao. You always manage to come up with such amazing structures for your maps. All of your maps have a similar theme: Ancient Futuristic. At least in my eyes. That huge building is stunning and the structure in the 7th picture made my jaw drop. Seriously. Every single one of your maps does not disappoint mostly in aesthetic values. Great job.
Love the aesthetic design on this great map and its a really good fresh idea the it seems others have not capitalised on as much most are just slayer gametypes in the crypt with no origionality. Very origional. Great map. 10/10!
You had me at the first screenshot. Downloaded. The overview looks fantastic, I'm sure this'll be a map I'll enjoy.
Good to see something a little different here. This map has it all: outstanding gameplay, great aesthetics, and a HUGE play area. All the different elevations really add a unique quality to this map that I haven't really seen utilized in most maps. It has a very Headlong-ish feel to it. The big base is just awesome, so many ways to get in and so many ways to defend makes it ideal for 1 sided objective games. It also is great for TS and KOTH. Awesome, awesome job on this map, Maki, 10/10. Had a great time in those games yesterday, bro. Even though we got absolutely slaughtered on that territories game, lol.
Crazy man. I love all these structures I hav never seen before. This is probibly the best asymetrical map I have seen on sandbox. The whole layout of the map is genius. The cover of the map looks very good. I also like how you made the bases, but my favorite asethetic part of the map is the tin cup interlocked into the circle.
Wow i think this map is amazing, it has great layout, looks like it will play really fun ... but i have to ask IS THE NAME BY ANY CHANCE NAMED AFTER 'COVENTRY' NEAR BIRMINGHAM IN ENGLAND BECAUSE I LIVE NEAR THERE
Coventry Action Yeah, we did get our asses kicked, but I was very happy with the way the game played. Territories, One Bomb, and One Flag were awesome. There's definitely a learning curve on the map just because the base is pretty intricate, but after a couple of matches it seems like people learn their way around. Thanks for testing it with me. Looking forward to your amazing Gemini remake.....clocks ticking for the contest. Nope it's named after Coventry, Vermont. Seeing that it's and east coast city, though, I'm sure that early American settlers just the ripped the name of from you guys. I did choose the name because it had and English feel to it.

if this map doesnt make feature i will be honestly suprised everything thing looks amazingly interlocked i will get some of my friends to play and give you feed back later so far its a 5/5 for me
Bloody brilliant, from the pictures. Alot of things I really haven't seen before on here, and alot of things what'll probably get used more now. You haz made arts.
You know what i love about your maps? there either really original, our have some kind of gimmick. I really needed to see a map after the dozens of repetitive sandbox maps ive seen in these past weeks. This is a beutifull map, i really like how you use the tin cups. I wish there was more variety in the weapons though. Some spikers and a rocket would have been nice. I think i would rather have a gravity hammer then a shotgun to
Another great example of how asymmetrical maps > symmetrical maps. I love that huge base, and I also like that you managed to keep the map balanced. That is the hardest part of an asymmetric map. I think the layout is incredible, and the Man Cannon is win. The only things I don't like about it are the random floating Sheild Doors and the Sheild Door at the entrance of the tunnel. The tunnel Sheild Door will only promote camping. Rating: Aesthetics: 5/5 Quality: 5/5 Gameplay: N/A Layout: 4.5/5 Overall: N/A (I will update my review once I get some games on here!)
I live in Birmingham WOOT! I have to say, fantastic looking map with some great eye candy, I was closey looking into every picture to try and see what objects you used and how you used them as you have created soem interesting structures and scenery. I think this map deserves a look through and maybe a permanent place on my Hard drive. *Downloads* I will be back to tell you about gameplay if I can get a good amount of people on this.
You N E V E R fail to impress me. I don't know how you do it, but you do it. This is another one of your amazing and artistic forge creations out there. The artistic and aesthetic design that you implement into all of your maps is beautiful and unique to a high standard of quality. This hopefully gets featured some time, because I can just see it being featured some time soon. I (of course) will download this fine work of art. A definite 5/5.
Oh My God. I have never seen a map this good. Perfect interlocking, amazing map design, and overall epicness. 100000000000/10 and FEECHURE NAO!!!!!!
this is what i like about your maps they all seem unique and very fun to play on i cant wait to play on this map with u when i get on x-box live ,eventually i will give the map a 5 out of 5
