[Submission] Swadian Stronghold

[Jarold]

Super Old Stuff

My map has two spawns for the nords. The players are placed insie a strategically placed naval fortress that is under siege. The two spawns are infront and behind the players, or both sides ( depending on which way your facing ). The spawn on the wall has nords spawn..on..the..wall.. and they come to 3 sets of stairs where they can go down anyone at random. The other spawn, spawns the nords on the beach. They then come through the gate house entrance, which was opened due to the failure of it being defended. Im hoping this map will promote teammwork due to being surrounded.

"You are the last defence against the Nordic Fleet. If this island fortification falls the enemy will swarm our lands!"


Im trying to think of a better name besides Swadian Island. SUGGESTIONS WELCOME! My ideas : Swadian Bay, Bay Defense, Swadian Harbor, and Swadian Island ( since I still like it. )

My writing doesnt suck that bad in real life.



So obviously its not done yet, the pic above is just my blue print.

I dont know if I should downsive my map a little, so for scale I marked how small I am on the map.

You can check it out and have fun with it looking for the easter eggs I put in ( easter eggs means hidden stuff I think ).

Most Updated Version

Im trying to make this map feel like a siege as much as I can. Which includesbeing able to run around on the walls. ( we will see if I actually include this if its balanced enough. Which means I am waiting to AI mesh the walls before I commit myself to a , hopefully not, unbalanced idea. ) Since its a siege we have the nords entering via siege tower and ladders. There is also a beach spawn where they come in through the gate. Hopefully this promotes more teamwork.

I also renamed it to Swadian Stronghold.

Nice thought but do you really think the players would survive being attacked from four sides at once?

[Birdtalon]

Nice drawing. It'll go in the drawer with this one

[Jarold]

exactly why you have to split up and be coordinated to get far. good teamplay.

I know im really good at drawing.

[clickeverywhere]

Birdtalon, that was the exact image that came to mind when I saw Jarold's picture -- "Nord Invasion: It's kinda like that."

But this map could be interesting. If the spawn points alternated so that they attacked from two sides at once only.

[Kwal]

exactly why you have to split up and be coordinated to get far. good teamplay.

Yeah that's the point - I don't exactly see that happening when it's not a coordinated event, which will easily make it one of the hated maps. That is assuming you don't want that to happen

Clickeverywhere's idea could work though.

[Jarold]

If the maps not hated its too easy

True clicks idea sounds good but i have no idea how to do that. I just tried to start this map, and i just realized how much i suck at map editor. AI mesh is annoying and cant figure it out, ill have to look at guides.

[Kwal]

Haha, you may have a point there. Good luck!

[Jarold]

Ok added a pic of it and added some lore. Also added a name.

¸I think archers will rape from all sides xD
