Timeline

"Oh. Gosh! Oh, Gee!"

Huge. A central arena, surrounded by a lower ring, and some hidden stuff. Weapons and ammo to support about 300.

Beware the Jabberwocky

A very nice M1 net map... felt a lot like a combination of a bunch of Bungie's net maps. Twisty passageways, a large two-tier arena, teleporters to take you from here to there with no waiting, and a few little secrets... worth playing.

Chain Mail

Designed to look like it's name. Claustrophobic-you'll find yourself running into walls a lot. Mouse players will have an advantage in this one... but it got old pretty quickly for all of us.

Close Combat

A bunch of odd-shaped, bug-filled (both alien and the more mundane kind) rooms... I got trapped in two polys in three rooms. (Including the start position...)

Empire of the Serpent Sun 1.0

A three level solo scenario. Needs a great deal of texture alignment, and the lighting could stand a bit of sprucing up, but there's plenty to kill... I got a little tired of the fight-to-a-teleporter, see-if-you're-done style.

Infinity-Suicide v2.0

Three more, all originals. These are reminiscent of the early M1 suicides... high carnage, no hiding places, lots of in-your-face action. Storm Drain is beautiful, both for action and for looks!

Pfhringe

A pretty nice dual arena, in a sort of twisted figure eight layout. The hill is in the room that looks a lot like Everyone's Mortal... flow is great, and ammo is plentiful. This also serves as a great level for fusion bob target practice. Comes with an optional physics model.

Riker's Maps

Infinity remakes of some classic M1 levels... these bring back memories. (I even remembered where the flamethrower was on KillKillKill!) In general, these are much brighter than the originals... this may disappoint you if you like to lurk in shadows (which all three of these maps were good for). Two versions of Billy... one with media and one without.

The Gauntlet v1.1

A classic-style arena, reminiscent of Lack of Vision or What Goes Up... fantastic flow, nice variety of playing styles, and a few secrets. (Watch your back if your opponents find the recharger before you do!) Big enough for eight, but plays well with three or four, as well. Worth the download.

The Impoverished King

A mazelike level, with the hill in the center. Once you're on it, you'll be there until you die... and once you run out of ammo, you won't be able to defend yourself. Each section has a route to the hill. A little claustrophobic- the ceilings aren't very high (usually).
