The map was named after a line in "The Charge of the Light Brigade", by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. The design was inspired mostly by DOX's "Canyon Crusade" from Tribes 1.

Like "Disco Inferno", this map was originally one of the sample-maps from the BONES Mod, and thus will not operate precisely the same way without the mod. Namely, the base turret will start without a barrel, and the MPBs will not be able to redeploy in their spawn locations (except at the beginning) due to being too close to the flagbase.

This is a close-range battle, mostly on foot, in a large deep valley. There are no vehicles or inventory stations -except- for the two MPBs that respawn. The flags are out in the open, and there's little in the way of natural defense except for the lay of the land. It's a fast and furious battle!
