    "In this venerable courtyard, only the echoes of gunfire can be heard among the ancient walls"

    2 Players.

    Hey everyone, I rarely post my maps but though this isn't perfect, I thought I'd share it with you. It's a claustrophobic 1 v 1 arena with little time to regroup after you spawn. I wanted to keep the action fast while presenting a visually interesting vestige. Those who have played on it say it is exactly that, so here I am posting it for you. I hope you enjoy it, and appreciate any feedback you might have!

    Equipment List:
    1 x Sniper Rifle
    1 x Shotgun
    2 x Battle Rifle
    1 x Carbine
    2 x Plasma Rifle
    2 x SMG
    2 x Magnum
    1 x Plasma Pistol
    /grenades*
    6 x Plasma Grenades
    2 x Frag Grenades

    *I included the abundance of grenades since you will not be alive very long. So you can use them, but only if you can.

    Now the pics!

    These photos don't really do the map justice, but you can see what it's about. Also, like any of my maps, there are a few hidden weapons and secret areas you can get to, you just have to try hard enough :)

    Enjoy!

    Now, even without playing it, my biggest concern is that although it's a very cool map with an original location, that last picture seems to signify that there is a wall that's missing. Unless you blocked and un-blocked certain guardians (which you could've, but I don't know if you have), then that would allow for people to simply dash out into the dunes.

    @ The Berb, Yeah just about everything that touches the ground is merged. The pics don't do it justice, you're right -_-

    @Panncakez, I built the map right on the line where the guardians detect and kill you. I have a kind of barrier (that you can't see in the picture, I'll upload one detailing this later) which kills you if you linger too far. I'm not saying that it's foolproof, but it worked as far as i could see.


    @ defy, yeah I did! betcha didn't think i would though. Oh and, who are you again? XD I don't know that tag! FORGIVE ME!

    this looks awesome! i have never seen a map like this before. Im thinking that at the back you can get killed by the guardians but you have about 3-5 seconds to get out. Hes probs done it to make the game more exciting...

    Exactly right Elliot. I like being able to toy with death :)

    P.S. I'll upload some more pics since I'm getting some feedback, and I might post something else as well.
