Hey there, Hubbers of the Forge! It's been a while, but don't worry, I'm still doing forge things and all that stuff. This time around I'm here to show you a co-forge with the dearest Mr. O-Fone.

Convergence began in the most spontanious of ways. I saw the Dust-Up announcement thread and decided I'd like to try to make something new for it (Opal and Jade were old projects of mine at the time and I wanted to put something completely different from them in it as well). However, to make something new, I knew that I wanted to stray outside of my normal comfort zone, and so I made a post on the first announcement thread asking if anyone wanted to co-forge with me for this. Luckily for me, the great Dax responded immediately with a few words of affirmation.

Now, this was the first time either Audience or myself tried our hand at forging a map with someone else. So with both of us being co-forge virgins, you can only imagine how anxious we were about how it would turn out.

We began by looking at old projects of mine. Thankfully, since I save most of mine and make so many things (due to this concept where I am terrible at forging I've made in my mind), we had a lot to look at. Beginning with a loose concept of my map The Whale (an old 4v4 which some TCoJ guys may remember), I made the center (purple) room of Convergence. Dax joined me at that point and we went at the map like mad, nearly finishing it in a few hours on a whim.

He's not kidding about those few hours, either. See, I'm the type of forger who usually plans out his map down to the very inch before going into forge, then taking about 5 minutes after placing each piece to inspect it. Audi on the other hand, is the complete opposite, jumping into forge on a whim and letting his ideas flow. And boy does he let those ideas flow fast! It was a bit of a struggle keeping up in the beginning, but I somehow managed to do it, and I think we can both say we had a really great time with our co-forge. (Something you don't hear from most first-times, am I right?)

Weapons List and Layout:

Sniper - 0 spare clips - 90sec
Railgun - 0 spare clips - 90sec
Sticky Det - 1 space clip - 90sec
DMRx2 - 2 spare clips - 45sec
Frag Grenadex4 - 60sec
Overshield - 180sec

Before we go, we should say thanks to everyone who helped us out in testing this map. We've both been doing a lot of map testing and playing besides this, so a lot of names are starting to run together, but we really appreciate those that were there to help this map improve from it's beginning iterations. My hat is off to you, good sirs.

Thanks for reading! Be sure to check out the map and let us know what you think!
