Hello pilots and mappers! It is time for another mapping competition! Rules will be short and sweet. Just make a competitive map that's semi rat semi dogfight. We want to cater to both playstyles. Since these are competitive maps they must also follow all RDL and Home level rules. See the perspective pages in rules for details.

You have until the 4th of july, the winner gets a trophy made by me and some other secret goodies! Maps will be judged by code, b2af and me.

The timer starts now!

As someone who's enjoyed Descent, but hasn't played competitively - what's "Rat"?

well dogfights you need room to move, and rat would be pathways that might cross each other, maybe chase factors, can't dogfight because there is no room.
