    Cavernous:
    An underground war fueled by wealth

    The Story:
    Around the late 1800s, gold was becoming ubiquitous throughout California. Not only did people want it, they were willing to risk there lives for it.

    There has been stories told of an underground war, fueled be the lust for gold, oil, and most of all, wealth. This battle went on for years and years. Stories say it was between two mine corporations, greedy to get there hands on the oil and gold that sat around half a mile under there feet.

    After a while they did strike gold, and they did find oil, but they wanted more. So, they began to mine on the other companies land, which then resulted in the huge rivalry. Over the years, the rivalry became stronger.
    Too strong.

    Links And About the map:

    The map is set up for all team based games. It plays great with all the normal settings, but i have effected the game-play with my own game-types.

    looks sweet, very original. I havent seen someone make a map using just the foundry bases. I liked the story for this. Good job, merging interlocking and such look great. I'll dl and have a look.
    Is this what you were doing when you were banned?

    Hey. i didnt think you were posting this til tomorrow. o well, glad to see it now. definitely a 5/5, you guys have to DL. The action shots were all together when i looked and made the post very wide, but maybe its just me. You struck gold with this map, lol. I love how its so strategic, but you included spelunkers which is complete mayhem and fun for everyone!




    I know, lol

    Great map.
    As you know i played this already and it is awesome
    The map does a fantastic job of supporting almost all gametypes.
    The bases are very well made and CTF works perfectly without any spawn problems
    The defining feature though, is of course the good use of the tunnel area of foundry

    it makes it very hard to see the whole of the post with my screen reso atm im in certainly not changing it to read your map, I havent read the description as Im not sitting here scrolling left and right for 3 days but from your screens its very imaginitive I like the idea of boxxing in from the other side nicely layed out but imo the two bases look a little wear and tear

    good work, making it look like it's in a cave. i would try to make more stuff in the open space though. you could try to create better ambience to make it feel more like a cave. but whatever, supporting all gametypes is a biggie. great map still.

    VERY ORIGINAL. I really haven't seen any maps that use that back tunnel as the map. That is a sign of a true forger to take on something that challenging. Great jorb!
