So first things first, I want to give a huge shoutout to everyone that was involved in the nearly month long testing of the map and game type. Thanks to you all, both have grown tremendously and I cannot thank you enough.

I'll be adding a ton of information to this posting and as such, I'll be splitting it into the two parts listed below:

Raid Mechanics and Walk-through
