What is Navy Fortress?

What is Navy Fortress? At first Navy Fortress is a mix of the two coolest mods out there, "Navy Seals: Dev. Group" and "Team Fortress". We tried to capture as much of the original "Team Fortress" spirt as possible, while still being innovative, realistic and "Navy Style". To put it simple (so that all the Quakers out there understand it), that means you can play all the cool classes you know from TF with some brand new specials and ideas and blast your enemys head away with your original Mossberg M500 Shotgun!

All Quake II Weapons were replaced by real life weaponry and the damage system has been changed to make NF more realistic. A shoot to the head means (as long as you don't wear any armor) nearly instant death and a shoot to the legs will surely slow your enemy down. Additional features like bleeding and severly maimed legs (which means slower movement and unabililty to jump) are included too. New goodies like bulletholes, bloodsplats and debris from shots have also been programmed.

Some new Modes to play have also been included to make the game more interesting and increase the variety. New modes are "Competition", the team with the last survivor wins the round (Yeah, it is somewhat like RA2), the obligatory "CTF", "Capture the Hostage", instead of grabbing a flag and running away wildly you have to get the hostage and try to escort her out of the danger-zone into safety, "Protect the VIP" where you have to care for an vulnerable Person, that has to be assasinated by the enemy team and finally "Capture the Bomb". For details on any of this gamemodes see the section of this manual.

When you start playing you have to choose, unless you are not playing standard DM, one of the two available teams (either the Navy Seals or the Terrorists) and one of the available classes. You start with all the Equipment, Weapons, Ammo and Armor that class is equipped with.

Nf was made with high compatiblity and customizability in mind. This means that you can change a lot of game-things like the weapons and even the classes and you can use a lot of non-NF maps for example Weapons Factory or Action Quake.

Modes Of Play

In the following you will find a quick summary for all the game-modes, that are included with Navy Fortress. The game-mode you play depends on the map you selected. Some game-modes may be played without special infos on the map. For details see the quick summaries. If you want to know how to make maps using any of the following game modes visit mapdepot or mail me at Democritus@gmx.de. Some of the exact rules for the special game-modes may still change or may not be implemetned yet.

DM - Deathmatch

How to play:
Yeah! Deathmatch! Nothing else! No Teams! No Specials! All you have is a knife a pistol and some ammo! So get some of this cool killer weapons and blow some holes into your enemies, before they do this with you! Dead simple, eh?

DMC - Deathmatch Competition:

How to play:
Standard Competion is like Deathmatch, at least to some point. At the start you have to choose your team and your class. You do not respawn when playing Competition. The Team with the last survivor(s) gets one point. And all players respawn. Competition can also be used in conjunction with other game-modes (CTF...).

CTF - Capture The Flag

How to play:
Yeah, this is CTF but not the normal one. It is the original TF Capture the Flag! This game mode is different from all the others because as they want to bring some degree of realism to NF this one is here to bring you the original Team Fortress feel but with other weapons adn specials.
You start as a member of the team you chose in a destination, that was set by the author of the map you are playing. Your target is simple: Get the enemies flag and bring it back to your own base to a predefined point (the <item_flagreturn_team>).
You may play CTF COMPETITION, in which case you do not respawn after dieing. The team with the most "captures" wins the round, after wich the game cycles to the next map. If the game ends because of one team having no team members left, then the remaining team gets one "capture" for every Team member (with a health above 50?) And all resapwn again.
You should use this game mode without Competition only if the Team Spawn points are far away from the capture route so that you won't meet any of the people you just shoot down. Wouldn't be fair to have them come back with full health and shoot you down.

RTH - Rescue The Hostage

How to play:
This is a interesting variation of the CTF concept that has more room for strategy. Instead of catching a flag (why the hell should you risk your life for a goddamn flag?) you must now rescue a hostage. If you are playing as a SEAL , you have to get near the Hostage (he spawns at the <actor_hostage_team> entity) who then starts to follow you. You have to bring him into safety (the <actor_rescue_team> entity). This counts as one capture. In one level there might be more than one hostage. If a hostage gets shoot, then the Seal whom he followed loses one frag (or even a "capture"), and the Terrorist, who killed the Hostage loses one frag (or even a "capture") too. If you play as a Terrorist, you have to take some hostages instead of rescuing them. Except from this little change, the game works exactly like for the Seals. If you die, you DO NOT respawn! So be careful with what you do. After all hostages are rescued, taken and/or dead or all players of one team are dead the game cycles to the next map, with the winners the team with the most "captures" or the last survivors. In the case of a tie (Both teams have recued/taken the same amount of hostages, and no ones are left or the last two players kill each other) you have to play the same map again. It IS possible to make a map, that has only hostages for one team, but that team is at a slight disatvantage, as they have to rescue the hostages and stay alive.

CTB - Catch The Bomb

How to play:
Another interesting CTF variation. As in RTH or CTF COMPETITION or PTV you do NOT respawn after dying, so be careful. This Time you have to get the bomb from the opposing team and bring it to your DemolitionsMan, who has to disarm it, before it explodes. He has to bring it to the <info_disarm_team> entity. Each level using CTB has a Timelimit, after the Limit reaches 0 the team, that had to defend the bomb, wins the round. Only one DemoMan is allowed on the Team that has to disarms the bomb and should he be killed, the Team losses the game. It is possible to let both Teams have bombs, but this makes the whole game (like two VIP teams) a lot more complicated.

PTV - Protect The Vip

How to play:
This is a variation of the MH! concept (See below). Instead of trying to rescue/take hostages, you have to protect one VIPs (Very Important Person which is played by a human player of your team) from your enemies. This game mode goes for a predefined amount of time, after which it either automatically changes the level or all will respawn again. If the VIP survies this time, then the Tangos get one point. If he dies, then the SEALs get one point.

MH! - Manhunt!

How to play:
This is the Gamemode that you can also play in TFC for Half-Life. One player spawns as the Hunted at the <info_hunted_spawn> the others spawn either as Bodyguards/SEALs at the <info_player_team1> entities. They are restricted to some classes (HW-Guy, Medic or Soldier).The others spawn as Hunters/Terrorists at the <info_payer_team2> entities. They are restricted to the sniper class. The Hunted has to arrive at the <item_hunted_rescue> in order for the SEALs to win the game. The Terrorists win, if the Hunted is killed.
