Map The Blaze of Conquest v1.0, M∞, Net, 2-6 players (6-4-97)
The Over-Established Introduction
Thank you for choosing my map to download from the many fine ones available. My never-ending plan is to not only not disappoint you, but to titillate all trigger fingers. All my maps have been tested by the fine folks at work and have been subsequently tweaked to ultimate playing ripeness by me. This laborious & tedious process is carried out so that you, fine marine, can indulge in the unique & pleasurable rubbing-out of your buddies.
Basic Map Attributes
The Blaze of Conquest v1.0 is a M∞ net map made with water texture and is 68K in size.This map can support 2-8 players but 2-6 are recommended and all modes of game play are possible. The hill (w/ the ball) is below the one 2X recharger and has the light texture. There are three aliens (cyborg, enforcer and drone) which don’t reappear after they kick off. The recharger/sniper ledge is gained by stepping on top of the half door and jumping over to the teleporter. This is a fast, small map with attention given to hall lighting, weapon placement and sounds. High carnage rates should rule with practically no suicides.
Possible Strategies/Play Suggestion
Get to the sniper ledge! The lone missile launcher awaits you! Beware of the anti-sniper hall (steps up from half door). Hide in water area for MwtB.Try any of my physics models available at:
I want to thank Bungie and the developers of Forge, Anvil, Alchemist and Phorte. Also, to other map makers who’ve given me advice and insight. I want to say thanks as well to the hard-working folks at the hyperarchives and other areas who give all maps exposure. They’re styl’n. I am grateful to Red Sonya, Dante, Marsha Brady (a.k.a. L.O.D. and Archie Bunker), Light’em Up and especially Relic who consistently test and play my maps and provide valuable feedback (e.g.“Smear dude!” and “I’m stuck on a poly!”).

The Battle with Narcissism
In spite of the thought, time and energy put into this map, it may plain suck. Who knows better than anyone? You do. Please tell me. I need all the objective input you can muster. Tell me anything and everything you think (especially objective negative stuff) so that I can make a better map for you. I know it’s a huge pain to e-mail when you’d rather play Marathon, but all input is valuable. Thanks in advance for your help.
