Author's Notes
-----------------------------------------------------

I designed this level with the aim of producing a unique look consistent with the look and feel of retail UT3 levels using retail meshes.
I also wanted to create a CTF level with a Unique Z axis feel. I wanted to bring the level alive with allot of moving parts and sounds.

This map, as with my previous levels had each room created in a separate UT3 file and was all pieced together once final. The map has over 18300 assets.

Map Features:
This map has powerups that are on a timer which spawns when the teams flag has been in the base for a fixed length of time, rewording the team who defends well, each base is equal.
This adds a new dynamic to the way the player would normally play the map. The player can now time the capture, choosing weather or not to risk taking these powerups at the cost of possibly making the flag run harder for the flag carrier.
