Map based on the popular TV show American Gladiators. Counter-Terrorists (Gladiators) try to fend off the Terrorists (contenders) from within a tower, similiar to the "assault" mission on the TV show.

This map is totally pointless. Its a small fy map with no objectives or anything. Hang yourself rather than play it.

Counter Terrorists battle thier way through a block of student appartments in the US, to save the 4 hostages taken captive and get them to the rooftops! CT's are extremely stretched for time in this map as they get each of the hostages from the multiple floors...
Crates are there because the attendants are moving out (crap building going to be demolished or something :P)

this is my first bomb defusal map, and it probably shows it was an excuse to have a go at making rocks/cliffs, but not in the ordinary canyon type area, the setting is sort of oriental hence the name, but for me the breath of fresh air is that it isn't all blue skies and yellow sunlight, if anyone could host a test it would be appreciated.

this is a really really tiny map, 2 storyies, the separator between the levels is glass so are all the wallz except for the outer ones, and i would say they are 95 - 98 % invisable, just like the fair's "glassmaze" really hard to go around, you pretty much move around by guess and hope no one comes out out the side and stabs u with a knife, i expect this to be a funny map :D, glass is unbreakable. have fun with it, good for 10 vs 10 or something

this is a small map about a little outpost with 3 buildings, 8 hostages, 3 vehicals, soo much hiding spots for terrorists to hide in

(very old map)

Pain Train is a fun map. It's supposed to be a driving train. The terrorists start on the front side, the couterterrorists start at the backside. There is only one way to go which contains lots of waggons with cover and some tricks. If you fall off the train you get smashed - this happens ofter than you might think

there's place for some teamplay for example climbing crates or going from two different sides of a waggon.

The grafic looks good except for the driving effect. The train doesnt look like its driving and stands on black blocks which you only see when you jump down. The r_speeds are very good for a train map.

There's nothing more to say about it though.

Gameplay is team deathmatch without a cs goal - but lots of fun.

The second part of the villa of doom has a better CS gameplay. The Counterterrorists start outside the villa again this time in a bigger garden. There are three ways to go: either go through the front door where youre most probably confronted with your enemies immediately or you choose the back door where you have to destroy a cupboard to get into a long corridor which leads into the terrorist base or into the main hall. The third way is very dangerous but is a fantastic position if you manage to make it there alive: you climb some plants at the side of the villa and smash a window to get into the main hall through the upper floor - there might be a terrorist camping there already. The terrorists team is the camping team usually. It starts in 4 small rooms which are connected to the main hall and the corridor that leads to the main hall again and the backdoor. Mostly the terrorist will station in the main hall, there are lots of places to camp - you can slash some of the banister and a part of the reception table to camp there. A very cool position is on the chandelier which blocks bullets. It can only be destroyed by hitting the rope.

The gameplay is very balanced and teamplay is great on this map. There is no cs-goal like hostages or bombs though.

The villa looks spookey. A gloomy atmosphere makes it fun to play. Here and there you find some nice details. I should have made the corridor part a little more detailed like some pictures at the walls. The R_speeds are like in most of my maps pretty good. This map had been a huge success and I think its great fun, download now!

The villa of doom is a small dark place. The Counterterrorists start outside the villa in a small garden. There are two ways to go: through the front door which leads directly into the mainhall or through a side door. There you'll find a kitchen and a dinner room from which you can go into the main hall or the cellar through a fireplace. The terrorist team has two different starting points. Either at the end of the main hall where there are four small rooms or in the cellar which is connected to the main hall through stairs. The map looks good, although there is nothing really astonishing about it. It's very dark so you better buy night vision googles. The r_speeds are very low.

The gameplay is pretty much deathmatch. The terrorist try to storm out of the cellar if possible or, if they start at the sleeping rooms, they try to defend this position. The CT team also storms into the main hall or the dining room as fast as possible to have the better position sooner than the other team. When the terrorists start in the cellar its harder for them to win - if they start at the sleeping rooms the CT team is at a disadvantage. If there's not total deathmatch with heavy weapons there are sniper duels between CTs at there starting point and terrorists at the four rooms. Flashbangs are a pretty good good choice on this map as well as the para machine gun. ;-)

Teamplay is rather unimportant, cause the map is so small. Six would be the maximum player amount possible without a total mess. Believe me Ive played it with 20 strong Doom_Villa fans and it was the third world war. ;))) All in all it's a dark, small cs-deathmatch map with a cool atmosphere, but not much cs in it and some balance errors.

The idea behind as_intruder is an escape through a city which means you climb through windows and go through backyards and stuff. I also wanted to give AS_maps more action. This is a very fast paced as_map. Both teams have to hurry a lot so that they're faster than the other team. If the terrorist dont hurry they will miss the VIP going straight through their base. And if the CTs dont hurry the terrorists can build up a very strong defense, so this is a map for Counter-Strike pros or at least for those who know CS very well.

The Counter-Terrorists start at a nice family house with a garden. They can leave through the door or the window, although the window is only used for defense if the CT's are constantly rushed (the CT base is easily defended). Then they cross the street and go into an industrial building with a backyard that leads to the back a storage hall. On the front of this hall theres the street where you find both of the rescue points. There's also the terrorists base which is a building that contains "sweet_home3" (my flat and HL-map). Right and Left of the T-base house are the rescue points. There are three ways to enter the street: backdoor & frontdoor of the storage hall and its backyards sidegate. There's one special way for VIP protectors - they can give covering fire through a window of the storage hall - this is a huge atvantage, because you can see most of the street there. The terrorists have the atvantage to stay inside of "sweet_home3" and shoot out of the windows. All in all it has a simply action loaded gameplay.

The grafic has some pretty cool aspects, but has some stuff I would have made much better if I think about it now. For example: on the street with the rescue points there are no windows at the side of the house, but those you can go through from inside or inside the industrial building there is an error - you can see another small part of the map through the sky. By the way this map contains my first self-made textures. The r_speeds are very low thanx to a lot of work at the construction. Back to the gameplay I have to add that it's very balanced although you might not think so at the start. If both teams know all the ways and tricks it should be a super-fair game which allows a lot of team stategy when you storm/defend the last street. This map is for those who like VIP maps with more action in it.

The theme is clear when you look at the title: Resident Evil. What it actually is is the gigantic mansion of Resident Evil (1) for those who dont know: this is horror adventure type playstation game. The textures are taken from the game and the official max payne texture pack and some are self-made.

de_resident_evil is huge - there are two big rooms, one is the main hall and the other the dining room and a lot of corridors and other rooms. If you dont know Resident Evil you might get lost and dont find the weapons or ammo. The two big rooms are seperated from the rest of the map through brushes and the doors work like teleporters, because the r_speeds were too high the common way. Since the map is very big you should at least have four people playing it who know Resident Evil or the map. This map is a remake of my very old Counter-Strike map de_resident_evil or actually it's the map that I wanted to make when I began with the map which became de_resident_evil later.

The Counter-Terrorists start near the main hall and have to prevent that the terrorists bomb it. The terrorists start on the other side of the mansion in a lot of different rooms.

The theme of cs_castle_night can be seen in it's name: it's a castle at night. You can't actually walk into the castle it plays on the outside of it mostly.

The map is devided by a river with two bridges. From the view of the bridge which is not passable the left side of the map is where the Counter-Terrorists start. There is a garden which is surrounded by high walls and in the middle there's a kind of entrance building which seperates the garden in two parts. The river flows under the two bridges and after that under a part of the castle. The river can only be passed by using the bridge or walking through this building. On the right side there is the Terrorists' base. The right side is completely blocked through a high wall where only a big open gate leads through which is at the end of the bridge. The Terrorists' base consists of a market with some booths and a sword store plus the castle entrance with a defence wall. If you walk through the building under which the river flows you pass through a collapsed chamber where you can climb up a bed which is stuck between rubble. There's one door leading to another room with a table and two chairs which is open at the other side it. At the open side there are stairs leading down to the Terrorists' base. There's a fountain and a broken gate which leads to the market place. All in all the grafic looks good, there are no errors and it has a nice castle atmosphere.

There are three hostages in this map: one at the fountain and the other two at the defence wall locked up in small cells. The gameplay is like this: the Counter-Terrorists can access the roof of the building in their base and with it the high walls either through the crates, a broken part of the wall or a plant next to the well in their base. From there you can perfectly give covering fire when the team members try to storm the castle through the bridge. Using the bridge is quite dangerous though. There are always Terrorists standing near the big gate on their side and a use of flashbangs and smoke grenades is a good choice. The other way through the passable part of the castle is good for three things: helping the bridge users by giving covering fire through the windows through which you can look at the bridge, rescuing the hostage near the fountain (in the collapsed chamber begins the rescue zone already!) and its perfect for attacking the camping terrorists from the backside. You have a good chance of rescuing all the hostages if you rescue the single one at the beginning of the round. The terrorists have a lot of camping positions for example in their base at the defence wall or the sword store. Of course you can also use the part of the castle as a terrorist to attack the hostile snipers from behind or through the windows. The gameplay is absolutely balanced and great fun it you know all the tricks. For a counter-strike map castle_night is pretty small and I recommend you play it with 6 players at max. A small problem might be the r_speeds (reach 1000 at a few positions) if you have an old computer it might be a little slow at some parts especially the CT-base with the sniper positions. I havent had any problems yet though. This is my favorite custom Counter-Strike map and I love to play it. Download now!
