Description             : In 2216, after the astounding defeat of the Skaarj, their Mothership
			  lay shattered and forgotten. Eventually drifting out of Earth orbit,
			  the Mothership crashed on an uncharted barren world light-years away.
			  Now two rival Skaarj clans, the Iron Skull clan and the Red Claw clan, 
			  have landed to battle over the Mothership. Will you fight alongside the
			  Iron Skull, or with the Red Claw?
Comments		: This is my first attempt at making a map. Botpathing was a real bitch.
			  Other than that, it was fun. I hope you enjoy playing this as much as I enjoyed
			  making it.
