    Palisade is a symmetrical rectangular map with an elevated center ring around the main combat area and hallways that suround it that connect the four towers in each corner. Most action is drawn into the center ring which stays hectic durring gameplay, the towers and hallways offer players a chance to flank around where the traffic is not as busy. Slayer and CTF are recommended, KOTH and Oddball are also avaiblible.

    I don't understand how the last to pictures of this map fit in. I would also recommend that you hide the fact that they are building peices. Anotop that, they look a bit sloppy, especially in comparison to the first two images. I don't know if I've played this one though, so that's all I can say for the moment. It looks interesting, but those last two images don't even look like the same map.

    The Red and Blue Towers are in the 'Corners' of the map, if you look at the inspiration they would be in the room closest to the camera and then in the opposite corner. The Green and Yellow Towers are in the other corner rooms. And ya, your right I got a bit lazy when I was adding to this map and kinda just plopped those down, I've been concidering rebuilding those bases when I get the time...

    I love Palisade, It's insane! YOURE insane! Non-stop balls-to-the-wall action that only stops when the game ends.

    When we played this on tuesday i had a great deal of fun. The two outstanding issues for me were, 1)during the game of oddball the ball kept getting atuck in the towers cos either it was the only safe place to take it or it occasionally rolled underneath the ramped section. But for those things i like how this plays. It IS frantic but there are spaces to regroup and reload if you know your way around.
    Did you give anymore thought to building your own bases at red and blue? Slightly simplified but still retaining the same qualities; you have to travel upwards some to score, and expose yourself twice with the flag. Can i monkey around with it and see if i have any ideas?

    Yeah, I'll make sure to cover those spots where the oddball kept getting stuck under the towers for now, until I get around to rebuilding those bases. I have some ideas for them just haven't had the time to get to it recently. I have two other new maps I have been slowly getting ready to test... I have a hard time "finishing" maps before inspiration hit me for something new...

    Thanks for offering, but I'll get to creating something for them eventually. But I have never Co-forged a map before, It might be interesting to try sometime with an idea from scratch...
