Released new version 1.1. It has a better bridge, some spawn points made more fair, and a polybug fixed. (Re)download HERE.


Alright, my third ESL map is complete, not too early at all. The biggest treat in it is that it's completely non-mirrored. Playing on bravo is very different from playing on alpha. It might not look like it, but it's quite balanced. The map suits INF nicely, too (to play CTF maps on INF, do eg. "/map ctf_argonia"). I also made the waypoints this time, and the bots hop around pretty nicely. No custom textures or scenery used. .zip was compiled with enesce's Map Deployer. wtg enesce ;o.

there are different advantages which makes it unfair.. but its good, in some ways:)

Yes it seems kind of unfair towards red, but it looks really good. Maybe make it an INF map?

It's not unfair, i've been playing it, and red has an equal chances IMO. There's no points in making a special inf map, just use /map ctf_argonia, put it in mapslist.txt or rename it to inf_.

Yea I just fooled around on it myself, and I must say it looks deceiving in the screen shot, but it doesn't seem like red will have much of a problem now that I was actually on the map.

You can stand on the "long brown things," right? That map owns B-)

Wow this map is great. I commend you on having the courage to make a non-symmetrical map.
I like the theme, and I think the gameplay would be good. Non symmetrical maps are twice the fun for me because playing on each side is different.
The only thing I think should be improved on is the bridge, the sceneries stand out due to their lightness, and the sceneries look a bit too stretched out. Also, I've encountered at least 2 bouncy polygons on the bridge :/
I think the bridge might actually look better if it was made of thin polys, here's a quick photochop :p

And maybe colour the red vertical structures blue on the blue teams side.
Good job on the map :]

No. This map rocks the socks. Except that sideways brown thing doesn't jive.

Michal might have a point. I'll get on a bugfixing/bridge-integrating version.

Looks very nice, but Michal's bridge looks more cool. ;)

It's not completely one way, there is a tunnel on the red side.
