    This map is good for team slayer, team assault or CTF. A long, high bridge connects two bases at either end with a very tall tower in the middle. There's also an under-bridge area with walkways and man cannons. The level is fairly decent sized both horizontally and vertically with multiple areas to skirmish.

    What happens when you fall off? Do you have a kill barrier, or is there a tele?

    Pretty freaking cool. Aesthetics especially. One thing I'm worried about is the bridge; there doesn't seem to be much cover...

    I'll dl. Will see it by myself and perhaps give some more comment.

    I just downloaded and went around. I didnt stay long but what i saw was good. I like the pathways under the bridge. The tower is very impressive. I suggest anyone who hasnt should download this.

    Very nice aesthetics for a competitive map. The tower looks pretty intruiging, and I'll have to dl this and check it out.

    One thing, is the bridge at an angle? Because usually that would give the people on the high ground a smaller advantage over the other team.

    I do like how there are both high and low play areas to this map.

    looks pretty nice, keep it up!

    Thanks, and if anyone comes across any glitchy things or problems areas please let me know. I'll try to answer some of the questions:

    The tower is playable. You can access about 2/3 of it's height by walkways and platforms, and there is a man cannon tunnel that shoots straight up one side to the top.

    The bridge is not at an angle so neither base sits higher than the other, though there is a definite high ground advantage from the top of the tower, and there's a spartan laser up there.

    If you fall off the bridge, the ground is a hard kill area. The areas behind the two bases are soft kill areas, but for the most part they are walled off anyway.

    There's not a ton of cover on the main bridge so that its easily drivable if you want to use the vehicles, but I did add the long glass tunnels for some top and side cover. If you're primarily on foot it may be safer to take the under bridge routes.

    Doesn't look much like narrows, imo. I'm downloading right now cause it looks good.
