At first glance you may think that this map seems small, especially for 4 vs 4!; and you'd be right. Let me be clear, . . . It was never the intention of this map design to be roomy or to allow too much breathing space - especially for the seriously competitive player.

Greetings and welcome to my first map post to Forge Hub. I'm looking forward to the feedback this map and it's supported variety of gametypes are likely to stir up, and am willing to compromise with any reasonable improvement suggestions.

Team based games on this map will force you to work as a team if you want to win, don't think for a second that just because you can see the goal that it's going to be an easy jog to it. 1v1 and 2v2 may be what this map looks to be made for, but the real fun is in eight player FFA. That is where the maps namesake is truely rooted.

The layout is inverse symmetrical on a mostly octogonal, level ground. The only obstructions are the upper tunnel entrances and the poles in the center. While there is an upper tunnel in which to move, there are no weapons in there for slayer based gametypes so you may have to come out sometime if you want more ammo.

The ramps aren't the only openings through wich to throw grenades, there are windows on each end and if chucked right there can be few safe places for cover.

Let's take a look around . . .

The Red and Blue sides (east and west respectivley) are identical, with one frag, one sticky . . .

. . . an upper level health pack . . .

. . .and a ground level health pack near the center.

The Green (north) and Orange (south) sides are where the firepower are placed.

The only sightline obstructions on the ground floor are the tunnel entrances and center pole.

I've found that although the overhead tunnel can seem cramped, it can still make for some interesting exchanges and suprises.

So there you have it. The general layout is simple, and yet can provide strategic challanges and advantages.

I'll be patiently awaiting your comments and advice, as well as any suggested changes or improvements.

Thanx for taking the time to walk with me through here. I'll cover more about this map in later discussion.
