Authors Notes Thanks for trying this map out. This is basically an early release to see what you guys think of the concept.
More structures will be added to this before release, suggestions welcome. Also there are only a few weapons. sniper against domino trails and in large card tower. also an m16 somewhere. Weapons will remain minimal, but of course there will be more than there are now. Original plan was for a CTF map with two mazes, but it may end up as dm and sabotage. I just gotta figure out blowing up the houses of cards.
No custom static mesh in this apart from conversions, as Ed will not allow import. There are custom textures. Please do not distribute this early release, let 'em wait for the final...fingers crossed it'll be worth them hanging on for.

Cheers Thanks to;

The buzzing Unreal and XIII communities for all the help and tutorials out there....found some good 'uns :o)
All the people who made it possible to play XIII custom maps online and those who tested this on Zer0's server, you know who you are, thank you
The voices - whoever you are, thanks for the inspiration.
And, of course, the ubisoft crew for making a phat game...looking forward to a patch tho!
