The Guns

between the chain of islands.Airstrikes and naval bombardment have proven to be ineffective.In desperation the Allies have resorted to infiltration to destroy the "TheGuns" Based on the best selling book,then later the movie "The Guns of Navarone" Half Life - Counter Strike mapper LaGkiller has tried his hand at his first RtCW map. The detail to the interior of the axis cave,ammo hoist lifts and especially to the German cannons is superb in detail.He has custom made the Nazi eagle statue to place on the map,a nice touch from the movie as well.Sounds on the maps are the standard and gameplay is well divided into several sections.Spawn camping has been nicely eliminated. The maps major faults are a lack of FPS on a lot of servers.Hopefully a new build to the map may come along eventually,Airstrikes and dynamite explosions will drop framerates to 1-5 or totally freeze a screen til the explosions are over,the other fault to the map is,the axis spawn at the capture point at game's start and can easily take defensive positions before the allies can organize an offense,a suggestion..spawn the axis further back in the caves and give both teams equal time to reach the main gate,the axis have way to big an advantage at the start.Also the side ladders on the cannons themselves need to be easier to climb. A large crowd would make for some exciting games! This is nearly 20 megs to download,but to serious mappers it's worth the time and harddrive space.Hopefully LaG will learn a lot from the very few minor mistakes on the framerates and return with another superb map! **Also look for the hidden "LaGkiller" logo on the map** Det Pak
Sept. 1943 in the Aegean Sea.Placed deep within the natural rock caves,the Germans have installed 2 massive radar controlled cannons to protect the only route for Allied naval ships to navigate
