DOCKSIDE
Created by Vorpal Saint and zombievillan
2 to 8 players (4v4 recommended)

Dockside is a symmetrical map built for the more popular competitive team based gametypes. The layout caters to KotH and Territories thanks to the style that the map is sectioned off. Mainly revolving around a center structure branching out behind two "courtyards" if you will, leading into the bases. The map is dedicated to objectives but plays team slayer quite well. The weapon setup is practically married to the map in the fact that it works so well with the geometry of the layout. The lines of sight can have you stepping in dangers path when attempting to gain an advantage or a need. Dockside really shines in Territory gametypes as well a KotH variants but the most basic objectives of CTF and Assault will never let you down.

The map is based off of a collab created by Vorpal and I in Halo 3 called Alizarin. The original was an asym built mainly for doubles and 3v3. Vorpal took the concept and ideas from the original and started a layout that doubled the size. He brought me in and we took it to a whole new level from its begining stage. Now its complete and neither one of us could be more satisfied with the outcome that is Dockside.

So thats the map guys. Vorpal Saint wanted me to post it due to the problems he has with his own computer, but dont get the wrong idea. He had more work in this map than I did, though I did alot. So I want to make sure Credit is given to him for what he has done. Its actually been complete for awhile now but we were waiting on some input from some people that just forgot about us and we ended up waiting for nothing. Its here though now and Vorpal and I would like to thank all of the testers. Its been awhile since they helped test so I cant remember who exactly it was but you know who you are, so thanks.
