This a MULTIPLAYER map designed for ESO! Computer players will not understand the new style of play! Do not attempt to play against computers and complain to me!
Many new tricks have been found in the past few months. I've applied a number of them here in this map, including scatter effects, change units in area, unstealth, and more. Highlights include a great new 1500 kills award, with a surprise "Blessing of Arkantos". Enjoy!
