    This is a 2Vs2 or FFA map in the shape of a cross with a large obstacle in the middle. It is quite a small map that can be quite tactical.

    Players:

    2-4

    Weapons:

    8xBR
    1xMauler
    1xSniper
    2xSMG
    2xSpiker
    4xPlasma Grenades
    4xStickies
    1xBubble Shield
    1xPower Drain

    Gametypes:

    Slayer
    Hill
    CTF

    I have only set up the 3 game modes so far, 2v2 King of the hill or crazy king seem to work best. I think oddball might work well but I havn't tried it yet.

    Pictures

    Cheers,

    It seems as if you could grenade jump out of the map but maybe not. This map does look fun, but maybe a picture of the map, like an overview would be helpful. Nice post.

    Now your pictures work and the map looks pretty good. The first shot was a decent overview but It is still a little confusing as to what the map looks like. maybe go onto powerpoint, draw your map, save it as a picture, and embed it here.

    Looking at the pictures i can tell that there is some merging and geomerging. However the double boxes that stick out detract from an other wise clean map. This also seems like it is escapable so please make the walls higher. I'm not sure where all the weapons you stated spwn either and so i can't tell if this is balanced. If you want you could post a weapons map. I am just being picky about maps because I am in europe and can only download a certain number of maps.

    Great job though. 8/10

    The pictures don't really explain the map well as you can't see what's around the corner but it looks like it could host a good game. It looks like some cover (E.g. barriers, crates or signs) may improve gameplay.

    Thanks for the comments I will change those boxes quite soon, because I agree they stick out and it is unsightly but the angle they are at was good for grenades, cheers guys, will post a new version tonight or tomorrow

    It looks pretty good. It could be bigger, but it's fine as is for lone wolves. 4/5

    Looks good but a bit cramped, although not many power weapons to take advantage of that so 3/5 (4/5 if you fix the boundaries since it looks like you can jump out as stated before).
