Description:

Gravel Pit is based off the Team Fortress 2 map: Gravel Pit. It is a one-sided Territories map with 3 territories. The Defending team must defend the points for 7 minutes, while the attackers must obviously take them.

Defenders have a 45 second head start to prepare for the attackers where they can choose which weapons and equipment to get and who should get them while in their respawn room. To win, the attackers must first capture points 1 and 2 before they can capture the last point (honor rule).

Each Point has its own distinct area:

Point 1: is mostly open with little cover, making it easy for snipers to soften up targets before their allies get closer

Point 2: is a little more compacted, making close combat more viable, but still has long range capabilities.

Point 3: Is very claustrophobic, making sniping improbable and close combat very deadly.

Each area is different from each other, making fighting different in each area.

Player Properties

Players have a 300% damage resistance and normal shields. Their starting weapons are a shotgun and a SMG, with a Fuel Rod Cannon, Needler, Brute Shot, Sniper Rifle, a Plasma Cannon, and Plasma Pistol to pick up in their respawn room and a Regenerator, Bubbleshield, Grav lift (attackers only), and Power Drainer to choose from for equipment.

Around the map are Custom Power ups that give the player for 30 sec.:

Good Camo
10% damage resistance
0% damage modifier
125% speed modifier

This makes the player almost completely invisible, but extremely weak as well, making the only viable method of attack assassination. They're usefull if an enemy is preoccupied and are facing the same way.

Strategies

If you pick up the regenerator, its a good idea to try and stick with someone with the Plasma Cannon. If things get crazy, lay the Regenerator at the other players feet, making him all most invulnerable while in the Regenerators radius, giving him easy kills against a group of enemies.
While on the attacking side, use a Grav Lift to get on top of terr. 2 with a Fuel Rod Gun or Brute Shot to rain down explosives to the defenders inside. you can also use it to reach terr. 3 faster if you know where to place it.
The Sniper Rifle isn't necessarily a instant kill in this game, but a long range support weapon to help soften enemies from afar while your team closes in.
While defending remember that(unless your enemy are being bastards) if you loose one of your forward points, the enemy will have to get the other before getting the last one. If you think one is about to be lost, head over to your other one and beef up the defenses there.
While on the offense, try to regroup after a unseccessful push. regroup and make another push. the enemy is lower on ammo, and have expended their equipment. regroup and use that to your advantage by using your equipment. to get an edge without fear of them doing the same.
while cloaked using the custom powerup, remember that your are extremely weak and anything you try to do to damage others will just grab attention. track your prey and assassinate them and then move on if there are other enemies in the area that might become aware of your presence.

Well, I hope you guys enjoy my map.
