* LEVEL DESCRIPTION *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are two teams, Red and Blue. Between the Red and Blue bases stands another 
base. It houses six technology Cores. When one team manages to acquire all six 
at one time: they win. Period. The level ends. Cores can be taken from either 
the central base or the other team's base.
 
All of the Cores must be on their respective platforms for the level to end.  If
one is "in play," currently off the platform, one team struggling to get it, 
there is still hope for the losing team.

One Core is released every two minutes from time the first person spawns, with 
notification of Core release one minute before a Core is released and 
notification when the Core is actually released. When Cores are released, they 
are accompanied by a violent explosion, so to be safe you might want to step 
lightly around a Core that's coming up for release.

Cores that are obtained from the central base return after 30 seconds. Cores 
from either teams' base return after 120 seconds. Once a team has taken a Core 
to its base that team may not pick that Core up again. It will return only after 
120 seconds.

Each base contains a "Fire Door" that allows the team that owns the base to 
exit via it and the enemy team to enter via it. There is also a shorter middle 
route from base to base that bypasses the central base. If you are a slow class 
and are going to the enemy base, use it.

* SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS / ADDITIONAL INFORMATION *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Things to do:	1. Defense, inform your team what Cores you have and what their 
		status is.
		2. Offense, tell your team where you lost/dropped a Core.
		Also, tell your team when you grab a Core.

Regarding suggestions people made about my map: many of your suggestions were 
very good. If they didn't get implemented, it's either because I'm a lazy bum 
and I'm starting to get sick of this particular map because a lousy bug kept me 
stumped for about two months or the idea just didn't work out for one reason or
another. They may get implemented in some future version.

There are some rather strange messages that come up becasue of the way I had to 
set up the entities: When someone captures a Core there is a message that 
reports that the Core has returned to the team that captured it. Deal with it. 
:(

This level is in the style of a TF map called Colony by Rizzen. It is not an 
attempt to port Colony to TFC nor was anything except the basic concept of the 
gameplay derived from Colony. All entity and brushwork is my own.
