Description             : 9 Buildings in a square (like a city block, 
			  hence the name)


			  This level is pure urban combat. A very close
			  and bloody game can be played on this level, or
			  you could take a building and snipe at people
			  as the scurry round only to be blasted into
			  gibby pieces.

			  Its also a sort of king of the castle type map
			  with all the better stuff at the top of the 
			  buildings.
			  
Additional Credits      : Everyone at Worldcraft for creating a very easy.
			  to use map editor and to what ever inspired me
			  to make a new level :)

Let me know what you would like to see in the map, im thinking about 
replacing the Sandbags in the middle with a 4 storey building but this is 
just an idea at the moment. Perhaps i could put some basements in or some
teleporters or even a sewer system.
Id also like to put Transparent breakable glass in the window frames but i 
have no idea how to do this, anyone care to help me out? :)
