MLB Starbase

Allies are preparing an ion cannon which aims at annihilating Axis forces and end the war. Axis board the Allied Starbase with a battleship with only one objective: take the starbase off orbit.

In many ways this map follows much of the normal ET map procedure. Axis must breach the two entrances and establish a forward spawn position from which they can begin the assault to destroy the main power reactor. Allies must defend the reactor at all costs which is no easy task as the designers have not yet built any buildable defences until the first beta maps have been fully tested in public. This means that Allies have as yet no killing fields into which to funnel and delay the Axis spearhead and coupled with the ability of the enemy to teleport into different sections of the map makes defending the objective quite difficult to achieve as you never know from where the enemy might appear from next.

The map includes many special features:

  • Low gravity meaning nice long distance jumps
  • Teleporters to move instantly from one point to another
  • Quake 3 style jump pads
  • Energy Barriers (prevent spawn killing and limit some sections of the starbase to the defending team)
  • Sci-fi style ammo chargers.

MLB Daybreak

MLB_Daybreak is an update of the Daybreak map which had a major bug inside it... A path through the mountains allowed players to get across half of the map without completing any objectives. It's fixed in this version and a few details have been changed to improve the map a little more...

Daybreak is an Axis-attacking map designed for Wolfenstein Enemy Territory. It's very close to the game engine limitations since we got very close to the entity limit. The first section of the map is focused around a tank which axis have to escort to a defense wall in order to breach it. Axis then attack the allied main base, using the railway path to infiltrate the fortress.

Withing the fortress, axis will fight their way across barricades and around a dam, to breach the rocket base entrance. They will then have to rob a keycard to open an armory and take 5 explosives to the Allied rocket before they can start the bomb countdown.

Reaching the end of the countdown before the time limit will lead axis to victory...

MLB Temple

MLB Temple is an upgrade of my Desert Temple map. Lowlife ripped the entire terrain and remade it from scratch while Marko & Bob worked on improving the tank and bridge system...

 

Allies spawn at a small little camp with tents on the top-left side of the map. There's a damaged tank close to that area. It has to be repaired and escorted over to the temple which is on the bottom-left part of the map. They'll have to build a bridge to help the tank get across the canyon.

 


The tank bridge is now built according to the fueldump scheme... It's a 2 stage construction system. Also, when it's fully built, a dynamite won't destroy it completely... This means players can still get across it even if the tank is blocked on the other side

 Allies then get past a desert outpost with a tank barrier, go round a fort to finally get to the temple and blow the main entrance door.

All teams will then spawn inside the temple and action will take place over there. Allies will have to reach the sarcofage room, breach the sarcofage steal the gold it contains. They then have to return it to the tank...

MLB Egypt

MLB Egypt is a new map of the MLB map pack. It was started from scratch in May by Marko, who made a set of temple with a pyramid nearby. Lowlife then decided to add terrain and build on, leading to what the map it now.

MLB Egypt Boat MLB Egypt Ruins MLB Egypt Water Gate


Axis attack on this map. They spawn in a wooden hut built on the river of a canyon. They have a boat to repair and escort along the river, going along ruins and borken pieces of architecture.
In addition to this, they can use an underground tunnel that goes all along the river bed, providng an alternate sheltered access to the objectives... Along one of the river bends, allies have a damaged flood gate to hold. Axis have to escort the boat to the flood gate, repair the generator that drives the gates and toggle the levers to open the gates, let the boat in, flood the gate then open the upper exit Once the flood gate has been passed by the boat, Axis get a new spawn in that area. The boat then starts the last section up the river, going by a town in ruins before reaching the temple entrance. It finally stops, rotates it's gun and breaches the temple main entrance...

The boat is now no longer necessary... Axis will now have to access the main pyramid entrance. They have another door to dynamite to get there before having to get hold of a box of shells, build a gun, load the shells on the gun and breach the pyramid entrance... The next step takes place indoors.

While allies attempt to hold the door leading to the sarcophage room, axis fight their way in the pyramid tunnels, using every path they can to reach the objective The path to the objective room is large and short, meaning axis forces easily invade the area. On the other hand, after having stolen the gold from the sarcophage room, they have to return it to the woodden barracks where they initially spawned at. Being unable to walk all the way back to the boat and down the river again, they have to breach the allied barricades to escape directly through the ruins protruding over the canyon...
