Circle of Stones
Author: NecroBones | Types: Capture the Flag, Capture and Hold,
A very popular map, this is another idea that I've had since my Tribes 1 days but didn't get around to working on until recently. Back in Tribes 1, this wouldn't have been practical because the game engine was more fragile when it came to large numbers of objects, and you couldn't scale the rocks. Like with Twin Towers though, there were lots of other ideas to do in Tribes 2 before tackling it... but then Pantheon was released, and it inspired me to get off my ass and do this.
The map consists of two fairly simplistic bases with the flags out in the open, and only one nearby base turret. The terrain is graceful and flat, and there is a capturable stonehenge-like circle of stones in the center. All of the base turrets in the mission start out unequipped, and thus are useless until someone installs barrels. The stone circle is the only area on the map that gets struck by lightning, and it makes for a fun and interesting combat area. You'll find that tanks and MPBs are very important on this map, perhaps more so than the air vehicles.
