TURNCOAT by dr boom on August 24, 2002

Capture the Flag Lush Clear Bots Night

This is an extrememly fast-paced map. It is also the first server
side map I have made. I have tried to do it before but end up changing
the terrain in some way :). The hook on this map is the CNH aspect. There
are 5 towers, all neutral at the start of the game. Both sides have a
tower close to them that they can claim early. Each tower contains an
inventory and either a remote sensor or turret. The high central tower
(tower 1), has mortar turrets within range of either sides flag. However,
the enemy can use this turret against the controlling team. It is a simple
thing, but I will let you figure out how (It will only work with mortars
though). The ability to take a team's base and use it against them is the
reason for the name Turncoat. Hunter players will recognize this terrain.
It is pulled from Escalade. The bases positions/types were changed very
little, and only where necessary to give it a balance, but there were quite
a few changes to make it CTF ready and give it a different atmosphere
altogether.
If this gets a good response, I will convert more Hunters maps to CTF/CNH
play. They are ideal for this and fun IMO. One more thing, I dont know how,
but the bots rock on this map. I was almost afraid to say that :), If your
system can handle it, max em out (both in number and skill level). They
really go after the bases and flag, it made me laugh cause I've never had
them work like this yet. Thanks to Boss Godfrey, Bighawkdaddy, and Tozer
again for the help in beta testing.

Look out for falling mortars...
