Dr Element (Bob) Scotland!! Inspired by watching world war films i wanted to create a trench based map where the scared trench dwellers looked up only to see bullets and mortars over head. It was very important to me to try and capture the feeling of saftey when inside a trench and the fear of leaving a trench. This is what i came up with... The wars games system was hacked to try and simulate a classic world war trench enviroment. Gamertag - Dr Element Gametype - All gametypes set up. Id suggest a slayer or capture the flag, team snipers is great. But play whatever you want! Including griffball. Ill be uploading my World War II gametypes within the next week and will link them when available. I should also state this is not a recreation of the classic trenches type game. Just an all gametype World War map. Map - Trench Description - A symetrical map that suits a 6v6 red vs blue nicely but is set up for all teams and supports any number of players. The red and blue team each get a series of trench networks and underground bunkers. Warfare in the trenches brings out a mix of short range - mid range battles, while on on the surface it becomes a mid - long range war. The sniper rifles on this map are very powerful, make sure your team grabs one at the start then takes out the other teams sniper quick, whilst editing the map i found myself increasing the sniper spawn time more and more because of its effectiveness. On the surface i spent alot of time making sure there was huge open sightlines, especially over the middle, this is to keep players wanting to use the trench for cover and make hard decisions on whether its worth making a dash over to grab a power weapon or make a sneak side attack on the opposing team. The best way to move forward towards the other team is to make your way up the edges of the map, here there is more larger cover items. I chose Erosion simply for the dirty look to all the forge items, it is a muddy trench battlefield after all...... There are four platforms in each teams trench that not only allow a route out onto the surface but also provide a great place to stand and shoot over the open ground, if you crouch here you will be completely hidden. There a four mortar cannons (Wraiths fixed in place) that just look awsome when all shooting. I made it so the wraiths are difficult to use and not overpowerd, although the more experienced players will remember locations on the cave walls to gauge shots. The mine field is a dangerous place to let your guard down, forget where you are whilst jumping to avoid a bullet and you may well find yourself without a limb. Ive spaced the mines out to allow warthogs to drive through, but be careful. The bunkers provide a safe haven... but dont forget your trench gun.... i mean shotgun. The red shows where the trenches are. The blue is the bunkers. The green shows the locations of the main power weapons. I changed weapons on map to ordnance so flood gametypes could be created for this map involving the ordnance and so the weapons on map could be edited with the gametype alone. I hope you enjoy this map. Has been popular amounst my custom gamer friends. Please feel free to browse my fileshare and check out my other maps posted here, all are tagged with - Dr Elelemt.
