Hey everyone. TrivialProdigy here with another remake, this time, as the title suggests, it's Timberland. Why Timberland? Because it hasn't been done yet and I wanted a challenge, to put it shortly.

I decided to build this map in Alaska for two reasons: It has the highest population density of trees, and because much of the terrain is similar to that of the original Timberland. Most of the map is comprised of Forge World's natural cover, with a few rocks here and there and some sweet classic-looking bases.

You may be wondering why there is a sniper tower and a Shade turret on the map. Let me briefly explain. Because of the location I had to build the map in, blue base has an inherent height advantage over the red team. To counterbalance this, I decided to give red team a small Covenant sniper tower. The Shade, at least at first, was meant to balance the sniper tower a bit. The area it was in was relatively unused; originally, the third active camo in the original map would have spawned there. I thought the Shade was a better choice: It gives a nice vantage point without being too overpowering, and it's easily visible from other points on the map.

There are no Armor Abilities that I would not recommend. The Jet Pack isn't a problem because there are soft kill barriers above the bases, preventing camping up there. Neither the Shade nor the rocket warthogs have proven any issues, nor has the existence of three powerups. Please enjoy this map. It plays best with CTF, Assault and Slayer variants, but should support others as well. Thanks for checking out the map!

Plays best with teams of 6 or less.

Defending the flag

Silly blue, that's not how you hold a flag.

Home stretch...
