Hello all, this is my first time on Forge Hub after downloading a lot of maps from the community (so be nice (: ). I thought I should share some of my own maps that have been very, very popular with friends and I'd like to seek out the opinion of some professional forgers. (Click on the names to download).

I named this "The Epic Map Pack" because all three maps are pretty much the definition of Epic ("of unusually great size or extent"), and they'll all best played with the Showdown CTF variant, but can be played with anything.

Stalemate

This is a simplistic but highly addictive map. Two bases face each other down the central valley of Sandtrap. Each base has a large supply of vehicles and heavy weaponry, as well as a barricade to fend off attackers (due to the lack of objects in Sandtrap's forge, it is a fairly spartan barrier). Despite the sound of things, Stalemate is a very balanced map due to the plenty full supply of Spartan Lasers and Bubble Shields.

Siege

The most aesthetically pleasing map of the three, Siege forces players into a bottleneck by sealing off the centre and pushing teams towards their (very grand) gates. Their is a large supply of vehicles on short respawns, as well as Lasers, Mines, Power Drains, Battle Rifles and many Shields of Bubbles to balance everything out. Also, am I the only one reminded of Jurassic Park by this map?

Apocalypse

First of all, I ask your forgiveness for such a generic, over-used name. I chose "Apocalypse" because of the constant explosions making travel through the centre of the map nearly impossible and highly entertaining to observers.

This may seem like an immature 12-year-old-like concept, but the map is by far the most complex due mainly to the teleporters. These take some explaining, so please bear with me.

The first ones are in both of the flag spawns, they send you to either of the floating platforms.

The second stage (from all four of the nodes on top of the plat forms) will send you to either one of the built in bases (which I have littered with small objects and sealed off from outside intrusion), or to that receiver node you may have spotted right in the centre of explosionsville.

The final teleport can be somewhat of an anticlimax. There is a 1 in 3 chance you will be transported to the side of the enemy's base, a 1 in 3 chance you'll be taken back to you own base and a 1 in 3 chance you will be dropped mercilessly onto one of the man cannons firing the fusion coils.

These maps are great fun to play, whilst not being remotely as intricate as most of those on ForgeHub I am still very proud of them. Please leave all your thoughts for me to build on.
