    Originally I was planning on building a mock up of Blood Drive from Gears of War 2. I made about half of one side before I caught glimpse of stuff I liked. Then I just started planning out what I could do to make this map fun and worth replaying. The end result is this, a map that does look like a mirror image and still has two bases.

    The Red base is for the Supremes and its the side that resembles Blood Drive. The Blue base is for the Rebels. I decided these names when the stair way's interlocking on the Rebel side looked like crap yet still functioned smoothly.

    I am currently trying to think up a game variant that does these names justice too. Pretty much the layout is Red has more human weapons and the Spartan Laser to make the name Supreme. While Rebel side has the Rockets and primarily Carbine.

    *If you played Blood Drive on GOW2 let me know if that look likes a good resemblance of one side.*


    Sorry I only have one Red Base photo... My Live was messing up on me today.

    Now Butcher this or Praise it.

    I'm still going to download and review this map but from the pics it looks like it has some solid forging. Interlocking looks smooth and the layouts looks ok, but like i said "from what i can see".


    *edit - I finally got around to forging through your map and for the most part i like it. It flows pretty well with the cannon mans and i like how they toss you from one to another and then to your landing. But it seems like you placed all the power items on the map, 2 snipers, a laser, needler, maulers, power drains, a few regenerators, a flare, etc. as well as i can pick up the invis that was merged into the corner wall on the blue base.
    Regardless of the power weps i do like the layout though, it does have good potential for some great gameplay you just need to make a V2 balancing out the weapons and equipment on the map, and maybe even try a few more forging techniques to take this map to a greater level.

    Updated rating 3.9/5 until the map is more balanced.

    The two pics of the blue base are identical...
    Hearing the weapons described, it sounds a lot like a sprokets game. Long range, lot of deaths, lots of chaos, etc. The map overall looks very clean. But with the weapons and the cover, I think the teams will just stay in their bases randomly firin their lazors (Or rockets). And that'll get boring quickly. You didn't show any pictures of the middle, so I can't comment on it. But it should provide plenty of cover to encourage the teams to move around and push towards the other base.

    No they aren't. One is showing the top and the other is showing the bottom.

    The map looks really good in my opinion. I forgot what Blood Drive looks like though lol. You look like you've got a good handle on how to interlock. Nice job! keep forging 5/5
