Overview: Rook is a small fast pace map based off the movement of the Rook from Chess. Rook is a symmetrical series of hallways and rooms that connect two bases. Some Gametype alterations are needed for this map. I thought it would be foolish to create gametypes for this map when the only difference need is to turn starting grenades off, and radar to 10 feet. This makes gameplay much more smooth and fun, instead of a fragfest with benefits.

V2 Changes
-Bubble Sheild swapped with Flare
-More Spawn Points added to Mauler Room and Long Hallways

Attackers & Defenders Base

This room serves as the objective spawn for CTF and Assualt.

Weapons:
BR (1)
Plasma Grenades (2)
Plasma Pistol (1)
Regenerator (1)




This is the pillar room, it connects the main base to the mauler room.

Weapons:
Assault Rifle (1)
Frag grenade (2)



This is the dreaded Mauler Room, not really. This room connects the two pillar rooms. The mauler spawn is few and far between. Grenades and SMG's keep and mauler-happy player in their place.

Weapons:
Mauler (1)

The other door out of the main base leads to a long hall at the end rests a Flare. There is also a nook with two SMG's in it.
Weapons:
Flare (1)
SMG (2)

Rook is set up for all Gametypes. Slayer, CTF, Assault, Territories, etc.

i like the way you edited the pictures and the very good description but could you give us a piture from the sky with out the celing? it would help me understand the map a little better.
nice map and i think it looks very good from the pix! i hope i get to see an overview!

[I_Aaronator_I]

nice interlocking, like the idea of small map, what gametypes play on it?



ps. can you pm how to make pictures and stuff like that?

[RadiantRain]

Either you did not add enough pictures or the map is small, but it looks good, I see you liked using doors...

[sdrakulich]

looks very nice i really like it, except a bubble in that small corridor, and a whole team inside, tsk tsk that wouldnt be too good....replace with like a flare, or a regen....3.5/5!

I like this it looks very nice! But I agree with sdrakulich, you should change the bubble for a regen. Seems kinda small though... Are those tele-doors? I like tele-doors... Looks nice too. The map looks good and it seems like it would play well. 5/5!

from your pictures it looks like a nice clean map,
an overview map would be good however, it would allow players to see what they are Downloading

[sdrakulich]
