Ever wished you could join the Hawkmen assault War Rocket Ajax? Well now you can.

Description
A map that should be able to be edited for most game types, consists of a 3 level hovering rocket ship (War Rocket Ajax) that is the red team's base and a platform with a banshee on that's the blue team's spwan point (somewhere the Hawkmen can Dive from). The map is currently set up as a defense map for the reds, normal slayer should work with afew spawn points but it might get little crowded.

The Ajax is recreated as best as I could plus an engine room (yep that part does look a bit star trekky). I have tried to make the Ajax as faithful to the movie as possible, it has a multi level bridge, gun ports an impressive copy of the wing and door movie set (if I say so myself) and even working cannons, well man cannons automatically launching fusion coils but close enough eh.

Ajax's cannons in action

Instead of Flash Gordon's rocket cycle he has a banshee, the game type has 5 classes, Ling Ling (Ming the Merciless), Royal Zealot (Ming's troops) Maverick (Flash Gordon), Eagle (Hawkmen) and the Prince Vultan/Brian blessed equivalent that I can't remember, the latter two have jet packs. You might find this map a little unbalanced as I made it to look as close to the movie as possible rather than for fairness. However both teams are reasonably heavily armed and I think it balances out, haven't had the chance to test it in a proper battle yet. And one thing I didn't realise till after I was done this map isn't really suitable for Elite's. They can go anywhere on the map but they have to crouch to go through certain doors and get into certain areas. Sorry but I forgot Elites were taller and I don't think I had the budget to fix it. Sorry for the lack of screen shots but I don't know how to.

One of the wings, look familiar?

It works best with the custom game type I made but as long as the blue team have infinite jet packs any type will do (might have to add spwan points tho). For my type it works best if the blues play as the top three classes and reds as the bottom two, it prevents spawn camping and means both teams have their corresponding movie characters. However it's best not to give the red team jet packs as they can spawn camp easily. The map is set up to have fighting in the Ajax so the blues only have two spawn points compared to the many ones the reds have.

The bridge

This is my first real forge map so I haven't been able to get invasion to work, or think of a custom game type to give each team different classes. Feel free to do whatever to this map, please let me know if you do manage to get invasion to work or create something awesome lol. Or better yet one of you masterful forgers can be inspired and build a far better Ajax than I could hope to create again please let me know I am hoping to get the ball rolling with this.

So stand by my brave Hawkmen DIIIVVVEEE. I mean DOWNLOAD!!!
