INSTALLATION:

PLAYERS:

8-16 players.

FEATURES:

Red & blue coloured lights are placed around the level at key locations (spawn rooms, no-mans-land between the bases, etc.) These provide visual feedback on the current state (on/off) of the red & blue laser security.

The area behind each set of laser security beams (where each flag resides) does not kill attacking players should they remain there when the lasers re-activate. This enables the player to throw the enemy flag through the lasers to a team-mate and adds an extra tactical option for attackers, negating the need to turn "off" the laser security until the defending team wise-up and kill the guy stuck behind the lasers.

The two sets of lasers kill all players. When bringing the enemy flag back to your base, use the door beside your flag to gain access to your base in order to capture the enemy flag.

Flags return after 30 seconds if dropped.

PLAYERS:

8-16 players.

FEATURES:

You cannot use the lifts in the opposing team flag room, only those lifts in your own flag room. In other words, once an attacker has collected the opposing team flag, he has to go the long route via the staircase. The defenders, on the other hand, have the advantage of using either of the two lifts located inside their flag room as a shortcut.
