The Grounds

Overview:The Grounds is a medium sized asymmetrical map that can be used for almost any gametype. The map itself plays around one central building with basically two levels-the lower level and the roof. The building also has some sweet windows looking to the outer ring. Also, the map has an outer ring that is similar to the way Rats Nest has an outer ring. There is one centrally located ghost along with two mongeese, one on each side. There are two areas that i'll be talking about, the blue side and the red side. Also, located in the lower level of the building is the rocket launcher. The Ghost is easily overpowered by the Rocket Launcher and can also be jacked fairly easily by each team. Both sides take the same amount of time to get to the rocket. Along with the rocket, the only other power weapons are two shotguns and a sniper. The shotguns are located at each base next to the mongeese. There are multiple ways in and out of the main building, the roof and the ground. The roof there are two ramps that lead to the roof mainly accessible by the blue side. For the red side, on the other hand, there is a little bridge over the ring around the map from where you can jump to three columns sticking out of the side of the building. For the lower area, there is a bridge on the blue side that is made of fins that connects the ring surrounding the map to it. Also, beneath the red light there is a large entrance and where the ghost spawns is an open area to play. The top level also holds the overshield and the sniper. You must jump on the little blocks to grab it. Almost all gametypes work, but my favorite would have to be king of the hill. King of the Hill with like ten people gets really chaotic and fun. I also enjoy FFA and CTF a lot. The map is set up for everything though.
