    Convoy Chase: your group of intrepid survivors has stumbled across a vehicle depot in the middle of the desert. you are low on supplies and ammo, but you hear over the radio that there is a supply convoy less than a day ahead of you. the only problem is zombies in this area have developed super speed and the ability to sense a beating heart from miles away. your objective is to use the mongeese to eliminate the pursuing zombies so that you do not repay the convoy's inevitable generosity with a high speed zombie rush.

    the emphasis here is on the gametype rather than the maps, but you really need both for the full experience.


    PLEASE STOP POSTING THAT THIS IS UNORIGINAL OR LACKING IN COMPLEXITY OF THE MAP. I KNOW, I WOULD NOT HAVE POSTED THIS IF I HADN"T TESTED IT AND/OR FOUND IT STUPID, BROKEN OR UNBALANCED. TRY IT BEFORE YOU COMMENT PLEASE!!!


    you are given a bunch of mongeese, a shotgun and a pistol. the zombies are unshielded but they can keep pace with a mongoose going at close to top speed.

    the last man standing, after witnessing the ingestion of the brains of his comrades, he goes Rambo; giving up any chance of survival for blind revenge. in the spirit of Ramboism, the LMS can dish out and take massive damage. the only way to kill him is to get 2 sword strikes on him in quick succession. SWARM!!!

    This game becomes exponentially more awesome the more people you have so get like 6 people together before you play.

    this picture illustrates the over all tone of this game.

    the the sandshark arena map is the recomended map for this game because it has been tested ALOT. it is sandtrap cleared of everything that isnt nailed down.

    convoy adds in a great deal of extra junk presumably from a zombie raid on a previous convoy that came through. remember what I said about the zombies being able to keep pace with the mongeese? dont expect to reach top speed too often on this map.

    Allthough not very original, its pretty cool... I dont think theres really anything else to say...

    But isn't a convoy a whole group of vehicles? (And why is one of the tags Rambo? (lol))

    3/5, only because i like it. Nothing new though...

    not to sound mean or anything but this idea is way to overused. Also i cant see anything of a forged map in this post at all. for all i know it could just be default sandtrap. and at forgehub we efocus more on maps rather than gamtypes so if this map is indeed forged than please post a pic of what you actually made and not some guy on a mongoose.

    This idea is'nt very original dude, Go into This link to learn how forge like a pro. 1/5 because the Idea is'nt original and you could have thought of something else rather than that. But since your new, You did post your map right, I don't see a lot of trainees posting their map up to standards so congrats on that dude, +rep for you. Also, try including more than 1 picture of the map, We get to see more of what the map is like.

    The only upside of this from what I can tell, is that people are on a mongoose instead of a warthog. At least that should make it slightly more enjoyable for the zombie side.

    This idea has been done, and unless you have added in something to improve the standard idea of get in a vehicle and ****ing run then I have to say that this map would be exactly the same as all other infection maps on sandtrap. Boring for the zombies. Barely fun for the humans. Over done and minimally forged.

    I find your lack of faith disturbing. Don't knock it till you try it. this game was play tested at a huge lan party I had at my house recently and it stayed fun for hours... so I am pretty sure that it isnt just one man's opinion. infact it is actually more than 20 men's opinions. I wasnt going for originality I was going for fun and I can safely and with no ego say, that this is alot of fun.

    answer to above: there are alot of vehicles. enough for 16 people to have their own. the above pic was taken after most of the other people had been infected.

    like I said in the description, the gametype is what had the most work put into it rather than the map. forgehub says you can post your maps and/OR gametypes it doesnt say post your maps only.

    rambo is a tag because the LMS gets infinite ammo and can deal out and take mad damage... just like rambo.

    wayyyyyy over done. i find it fun to be a human and sometimes fun to be a zombie. i think the best mode for this type of game is giving the zombies overshield and give humans warthogs also, no swords. hammers. makes it way more fun sending a hog full of survivors flying. plus the overshields eliminate camping in the elephant cockpit

    Oh...my...gee...this map is so ****ing fun, but soooooo unoriginal. It takes NO effort to make one of these maps, it takes NO forging skill, it takes about 10 minutes (that includes starting up your 360 and signing in to xbl), I'm going to have to say 1/5 because I can't go lower. I didn't mean to sound mean, but with a post like this, I have to be mean. I don't care if you're new, I don't want to sound mean, but please, look at other posts before you post. Nobody likes it when someone posts the kind of really fun map that takes no effort.
