Team Heat Final Bagman Map

Here is another map we didn't have.

Team Heat Final is a medium sized bagman map made by . It has two large, multilevelled, bases with the usual weapon caches. The upper level leads to points where you can overlook the centre playing area that separates the two bases. The middle leads to the central area and the lower level leads directly to the other team's base. 

There is a big lava trap in the centre area of the map that is turned off and on by switches located on the upper ledges of the central area. The money drop is also in this central area.

You can get to the other team's base by going via the central area and risking the lava trap or directly by staying on the lower level

This map looks like it could be fun to play.

You can download Team Heat Final from here.

Team Bunkerhill V2 Bagman Map

Another map that Jogger sent is a Bagman map made by . Gravedigger made popular Bagman maps in the early days of Kingpin.

Team Bunkerhill v2 is a typical two forts style map. It has the two team bases separated by an open land area. In this case the land area is sloped up until you get to the centre of the map then it slopes down towards the other team's base.

The bases are fairly standard, two levels, with weapons and items spread throughout plus two weapon cache rooms.

I'm not sure why he made you have to crouch to get into the weapons rooms but anyway.

The safe is on the lower level and needs to be opened with a switch on the upper floor. Once you have flipped the switch you can jump through a hole in the floor back down to the safe.

There are more than enough weapons and items.

There are three ways to get to the other team's base (sort of). There is the land mass between the bases and two side ledges accessed from the upper level of the team's base.

Overall the maps has a few small issues but, given a chance, it could be a fast and furious fun map.

You can download Team Bunkerhill v2 from here.

Stronghold Opposition Bagman Map

Jogger sent me some old maps we don't have here at Kingpin.info. Most of them have issues of some kind (only a couple of player spawns, no weapons, way too big etc) but here is one that is ok.

Stronghold Opposition converted by *TD*(RW)Un, from Quake2, for Bagman. There are other versions of this classic Quake2 CTF map made for Bagman but this one is a direct conversion and uses all Quake2 textures and no structural changes.

If you have played Quake2 CTF then you know this map.

Like all early Bagman maps there are some neutral player spawns (so you can spawn in the middle of the map or also inside the enemy base) but I think that issue was fixed in a recent version of the Monkey Mod.

You can download Stronghold Opposition (Q2ctf2.bsp) from here.
