For want of a better name,, is about ready, here is a link if anyone is interested in giving it a bash.
The mountains running across the map are terrain typed "void" to force ground units through the pass.

Ahh F**K I didn`t realise

should I correct that

No actually that would eb the same as hell has pass, which isnt the same, I think if any apostrophe is needed it would be hells' pass.

Nice map though.

Warlord Zsinj · Post by **Warlord Zsinj** » 26 Sep 2005, 03:14

No, it is an appropriary apostrophe, showing belonging. As in "Jane's shoes" or "the dog's bone". It shows that the "pass" belongs to "hell".

Should hell be some sort of grouping such as "people" as in "peoples' republic", or where the previous word ends in an s, such as "the missus' cat". It is a dying rule though, and you'll rarely see signage using it correctly these days.

Clearly it's Hell's Pass, cause hell owns the pass, well, they would if they were a team, because their basic infantry unit would be like a Pyro, which would kick ass.

Sorry, i'm bored.

Well, talking about gameplay, not spelling :) :
Well, that pass really looks nasty. especially with blocking wreckage and those small hills look like the give great defensive positions...

So i guess this map will result in an air only battle most of the time

when we played it we made an airbridge of sumotransporting atlases

Since when were sumos transportable? Is this just XTA?

Man, the whole point of sumos is that they are practically a crawling moving fortress; making them transportable would completely unbalance them...

IMSabbel · Post by **IMSabbel** » 28 Sep 2005, 03:16

Hey warlord, EVERYTHING that has legs is transportable in XTA, even krogoths (talk about unbalance goes here :D )....

... and that is why I play OTA.

mufdvr222 · Post by **mufdvr222** » 28 Sep 2005, 08:25

Yes its OTA for me or nothing, I never found wreckage to be much of a problem on maps like this, shure it builds up but its also falling in the middle of a fire zone in the pass area and is usually cleared away in short order by fire from all the other units that are blasting away there.
