************INTRODUCTION***************
This is my first attempt at mapping and I haven't learned or understood every concept yet.
I made this map because I loved those outdoor maps, it gave a sense of freedom unlike indoor ones
where you seemed confined to a few rooms and hallways. I got some of my ideas from "CTF-Face" (two large
towers facing each other) and some were my own ideas (warp zones at the bottom of the towers), though not
original. I have a few problems with the map, ie. the bots have trouble getting the flag back to base after grabbing it,
and how they almost never jump into the warpzones(maybe I should have just made teleporters instead) having trouble gettin' them to
snipe too, not to mention a bit dumb climbing up and down the stairs. You may also notice how blocky everything is too.
I'll try and make some improvements in the next version. Finally, I'd like to thank Tony Garcia, a.k.a. Wolf,
for the tutors for UnrealED. ([email protected])

**************STORY********************
I've tried to add a story to my map, most of you would probably think it's crap.
According to historians, the two towers were supposed to be a sort of
holy place where the people of that time went on journeys very similar to pilgrimages of the
Medieval times on Earth. The former race that lived on this planet were very religious and thought
mating as a form of sin, which eventually led to their extinction. Just years before this planet was
discovered, the race known as the Skaarj scavenged the remaining treasures of the planet and burned the rest
to the ground. Fortunately for us, they never found the towers which has now become the only key to the dead race.
The way the two towers float has baffled even the most intelligent
species of the known universe. It was at this point that the Liandri Corp. began to take interest in the area.
Two months later, a huge project began to transform the towers to a Capture the flag Arena.
The project costed billions and the poisonous liquids of the "sea" in the area were pumped out and
"fresh" seawater replaced it. After one year, the project was
finished the area was named: "Dark Towers".
