    My third map updated to forge hub, Aqueduct is, you guessed it, another team slayer and multi-flag map! These are always my favorite type to make, so expect a lot of them, alright? Anyways, Aqueduct is a U-shaped map designed for 2 flag but prepared for many gametypes. The bases are at the tips of the U, making a risk v. reward scenario for flag captures. Going straight across is quickest, but there is little cover and you risk being hit by a sword slice. Going further around can gain you the shotgun or the G-launcher, but long distances and focus rifle fire can be a problem as well. There are 3 floors on the map (The bases are 2 stories) and most can be reached via man cannon or occasional ramps.
    Weapons include: 1 Shotgun- 1 spare clip-central on second story
    1 Focus Rifle-central on third story
    1 Grenade Launcher-central near curve of U
    1 Sword- central near bases
    2 Spikers-2 spare clips
    4 DMR's
    2 Assault Rifles
    2 Needle Rifles
    1 Plasma Pistol- central near bases on third story
    2 Mongooses- by bases (May remove these if make capture too easy)
    several frags and plasma grenades
    Also, for Jetpackers, the level is surrounded by kill barriers, and the top and the piece that stops the grav lift have kill zones on them. The water also stops grenades from bouncing, making some areas easy to place 'nades.

    Now go back up and actually read the description!

    Remember, most of my maps have not been well tested and need some adjustments. If you like testing maps or custom games, or you know someone who does, please contact me about testing or send me a friend request on Live!
    And take a look at those mongooses, I am seriously considering changing them.
    Edit: Mongooses are gone for good, multi-flag flags are now near the upside down braces on the side walkways along with a new structure, focus rifle is moved back a little, and 1 flag flag is now on the platform near the grenade launcher (new pictures coming soon). Thanks to Bones for the reviews on all of my maps, they really helped!
