Author's Notes:
***************

Gameplay/layout:
----------------
I have to say I don't like wast my time with exploration of long and borring 
corridors, without any action. So I have designed this map arround just one rule:
"grab a weapon and frag".
It's the basic of the blood-sport gameplay. It's mean, a symetrical layout, as any
sport-terrain is, where each player know where is located the weapons and powerups,
and so they can grab it quickly. Action guarantied.
So, to make the difference inside, you have to be the more faster, the more artful.

Visual/FX:
----------
Visual was intentionnaly HOLP's styling.
I have past lot's of time to make all S-FX, with many kismet seq, hope you will
enjoy its, especially UDamage and Invis seq ;)

Optimisation:
*************
I have try to optimise the map as better I can (limited by my knowledge so far).
Run smouth and fast always higher than 60 fps under the config below :
Core 2Duo E8500 - GA EP45 DS3R - 9800 GTX+ oc - 4 Go DDR2 1066 MHz.
Maybe on some computers, it will have a drop down fps during the Udamage/Invis seq,
sorry for that.
