Toy Box Created by MADMAN Redux [br] Note: I posted this in the Casual forum last week, and I didn't get any feedback on it. After some consideration, I thought this map would be more appropriate for this forum. Please excuse the cross post. I'm new here and won't do it again. [br] Supported Gametypes: Team Slayer; Symmetrical and Neutral Objective; FFA [br] Map Description This is essentially a base-to-base map. Each team has a small base with the main feature being a gun turret that looks over the Toy Box from a fence box. Now, the Toy Box is the center of the map and the most dangerous place to be. However, getting in and out alive will reward you with a coveted weapon that may not help you while in the Toy Box, but it will help you within each base. [br] _________________________________________________ [br] This is an overview of the map from the blue base. It shows the Toy Box down low. In the center is the funnel and the sniper perch, which I'll get to in a minute.

And you can see a walkway which leads to the mancannon. [img width=800 height=600]http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj107/MADMAN_Redux/ViewRed.jpg[/img] [br] Heading off the mancannon will shoot you to the funnel where the laser resides. The laser is very important to this game because it is one of the few weapons that consistently kills through fences, which if you've been paying attention, is a large part of what the bases are made out of. It is essential to taking out the other teams gun turret. Just make sure there isn't someone already there... [img width=800 height=600]http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj107/MADMAN_Redux/LaserAim.jpg[/img] [br] ...unless he isn't much of a threat with the laser. [img width=800 height=600]http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj107/MADMAN_Redux/LaserMiss.jpg[/img] [br] Down in the Toy Box, you'll have all kinds of problems with gun turrets and opponents tossing grenades at the fusion coils you are likely standing next to. This is one way to enable you to move. The fire grenade, which spawns inside the Toy Box, won't kill the turret. The fence box is enough protection. It will, however... [img width=800 height=600]http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj107/MADMAN_Redux/FireinFlight.jpg[/img] [br] ...blind him well enough that you should be able to move to grab that fusion cannon or flame thrower. [img width=800 height=600]http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj107/MADMAN_Redux/Firecover.jpg[/img] [br] Each base has a nice little back door covered with pallets. Inside this box, the gravity hammer spawns, and I put it there for one reason... [img width=800 height=600]http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj107/MADMAN_Redux/Lockedin.jpg[/img] [br] ...So we could all yell "surprise!" as we bust out of the back of the base to descend upon an oncoming warthog. This back door is also very useful if you happen to grab the flag and have a teammate waiting out back for you with the hog. [img width=800 height=600]http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj107/MADMAN_Redux/Breakout.jpg[/img] [br] This is probably my favorite aspect of this map. The main entrance of each base is under a gravity lift. I didn't know, however, the lift would suck me to the ceiling if I jump up underneath it. This means you can be a human booby trap. Jump up, raise your legs, and wait for someone to run in. Of course, you're also an immovable meat pie waiting to happen, so kill that person quick. It takes a few seconds to float out of the pocket.

Thanks for the comment. I think I've made sneaking into the base a bit of a problem, so you could consider lasering/sniping him from the funnel. Of course, the needler in the Toy Box is a good option, too, but in 4v4, you might not have enough time to fire off enough needles before someone explodes you.
