Ok so a lot of people have been saying how confusing this map is and how they cant understand the signs and bla bla bla. So I am going to try and explain the map to these people and how the map really isn't all that confusing. Because it is a great map that I would love to see put into the rotation.

Each team has two of their own capture points. One behind their spawn which can be heavily guarded and extremely difficult to capture if played out the right way. Then there are two points on opposite ends of the center point, these points would be each teams second point. There are a few ways to get to these points from spawn.

Possible routes from spawn to points (yellow spots are the spawns)

Now I know it isn't much but, here is your map. The top one is the BLU spawn cp and the bottom one is the RED spawn cp. And there is the middle point with the four connected circles.

The secondary capture points is where most of the confusion comes in. Basically BLUs second point is the one with one thunderbolt and REDs second point has two thunderbolts. You will see these signs throughout the map so just remember: BLU - one thunderbolt, RED - two thunderbolts, and the center cp is the four little connected circles. Don't ask me why BLU gets only one thunderbolt while RED gets two because I don't know, I did'nt make the map. The only thing that I can think of is that RED is cooler than BLU.:badgrin:

Here is the center capture point. This is where most of the brain bashing will go down. To the left is a hallway leading to REDs two thunderbolt cp, and to the right under the vents is the same thing leading to BLUs one thunderbolt cp.

In this particular image you are looking at the center point from the front of BLUs base that is the reason why the CAPTURE POINT sign is blue and white. This kind of stuff happens a lot so do not let this confuse you.

Ok I think I covered most of it if you have any questions let me know. And I hope that this will convince you guys a little bit more that this map IS worthy of rotation status.

I do like it, though I think its a bit large... and basically have to have Teleporters if you want to cap quickly... and like Warpath has an instant spawn... and I think the last time I played this map it does not, so it's kinda slow for a big map I think...

and of course the single spawn point kinda sucks for capping the last CP i think.
Spawn camping isn't that big of an issue, but it can easily be done if someone wants to do it.



Overall, I'd say this map's like a 7.5 / 10... needs slightly faster respawn, and a full house for it to be a fun map.
so if you can get more ppl into it Zero, I think it'll be cool.
