    Welcome to the map preview of my competitive map.
    Hamalia
    I have been working day and night on this map, running through several test over and over again. And now after a week of Forging, I am finally ready to present my new map, Hamalia, (That's right, I made that name up!) In the process I've created a new way to do Invasion, of which I will explain later.

    For now let's get an overall look and feel of what this map looks like.
    From the start you'll notice the giant UFO in center of the map. Hamalia was inspired by Wizard and Derelict, except there's no chance of camping next to the teleporter this time.

    Before I head over to Bub, to see what he thinks of the map. Here's a list of things you'll need to know about the map before we get started.

    Max players count.
    2-10 players

    Weapon List:
    1xGrenade Launcher-120 seconds
    1xEnergy Sword-Doesn't spawn at the start-180 seconds
    2xDMRs-45 seconds
    2xNeedle Rifles-45 seconds
    2xNeedlers-60 seconds
    2xPlasma Rifle-60 seconds
    4xPlasma Pistols-30 seconds
    4xAsault Rifles-30 seconds
    8xFrag Grenades-10 seconds
    8xPlasma Grenades-10seconds

    Powerup List:
    1xOvershield-Again doesn't spawn at the start-180 seconds

    Supported Game types:
    All of them, including Invasion and Invasion Slayer. (Invasion Salyer is crazy on this map)

    Warning:
    Very close combat here, so be prepared to get pummeled a lot.

    That was quick, let's head over to Bub, as he takes his first look at Hamalia.


    From the start of the round, Bub could see that there were many paths that he could take. Sadly, Bub said that he couldn't find the one that took him to the bathroom. (Here's a hint Bub, there isn't one.)

    [​IMG]

    Bub, also found this secret underpass, of which he stated was a great place for him to hide in whenever he had to cry over the ending of Skyline. Can you find Bub?

    [​IMG]

    From his crying place, Bub can jump down into the basement where he can find a Health Pack. Bub said that he could use this health pack whenever his Older Evil Twin Brother Bob would beat him up for lunch money.

    [​IMG]

    Back unto the middle floor. Bub decides to check out one of the bases that were on the map; he thought they were very pretty. Note: If you jump on top the building, you'll get a return to battlefield or die message.

    [​IMG]

    Bub said that the inside of the bases was very soothing, so soothing, Bub could do pilates in it. This form is the Armadillo.

    [​IMG]

    After some pilates Bub noticed the grenades in the corner of the room. Bub said that he could juggle these grenades to impress female jugglers.

    [​IMG]

    Back into the basement, Bub notices the Energy Sword at the bottom. He's always wanted one ever since he was a little Bub. But Momma Bub wouldn't let him.

    [​IMG]

    Bub takes a second to look awesome for all of the female jugglers in the world!
    (Sorry, Bub their not impressed.)

    [​IMG]

    Bub finally salvages enough time to use one of the grave lifts. Of which he said is a great way to escape his Older Evil Twin Brother Bob.

    [​IMG]

    On the top floor, Bub found a Grenade Launcher. Bub, says that it's what every kid wants underneath their Christmas Tree these days!

    [​IMG]

    Well, that's it for the basic layout of the map. Bub wishes you a Merry Christmas. He thinks you've been naughty this year.

    [​IMG]

    Okay, I promised you guys I would explain how Invasion will work on a small, competive map.
    I think the best way to describe how it'll work, is to show you what the final phase will look in two individual games.

    Round 1:
    Here I am blowing up the objective with a bomb.
    PS: Things didn't go well for me.

    [​IMG]

    Round 2:
    Now I'm taking over the objective as an elite while looking awesome!

    [​IMG]

    Do you follow me? Invasion is what you want it to be. You can blow up all of the objectives, take them over with your teammates, or bring the core home over and over again.
    This is a craze that I hope will pass on to other maps.

    I hope you enjoyed this preview, and please tell me if you have any concerns about the map. Any comments will be appreciated. Thank you and good night.


    And you thought he couldn't juggle.
    (They're still not impressed Bub.)

    Dizzyman,

    The map looks dangerous. It looks as though attacks can come from any direction. Here's hoping that it plays well *cheers*. And Dude, I gotta say that I love Bub. Nice to meet you Bub.

    Love the side story, Bub i love you. The map looks really good but very hectic with all the possible angles. Small invasion does sound good, as getting loads of players is quite hard cause of blackops.
