cs_siege_10_de

This is the cs_siege map from Counter-Strike 1.0, complete with sniper tower at CT spawn, and working driveable APC. The map was fun as hostage rescue; however, it was very unbalanced, and most of the outside was wasted because T's never had time to leave their indoor base before they were surrounded. The author of the map ( N0TH1NG ) is unavailable because sadly he passed away. I did NOT decompile or mess with the BSP at all - the map is his creation entirely. I just shifted some things around, as follows:

removed hostages and hostage rescue zones

added two bombsites: bridge at CT and underground near elevator bottom

added a large bombsite indicator sprite at each bombsite

moved T spawns out to garage so they don't get trapped in base

added spawns for up to 32 players

added small easter egg banner

As a result, the CT's are on the defensive, trying to protect the upper site with snipers in the tower, and rushing to the lower site because the T's can get there just as fast. The map is now very fast paced and well balanced. There are many opportunities for sniping above-ground, and below ground is all close-quarters combat with grenades.

T's now start in garage so there is no chance for a CT rush			T's can get to the bottom of the elevator first if they hurry


CT's start in the usual position ...		... the tower is only a few feet away ...	... providing an excellent view ...	... of the top bombsite.


The lower site is right outisde the elevator shaft.			BOOM! No more elevator.


A large sprite marks both sites		The bomb can fall to lower area too	Terrorists win!	The bridge is cleansed in holy fire.


Remember the APC from the betas and 1.0? It's back!			Who is the best at parallel parking? YOU IS!

Suggested strategies:

CT: have 2-4 guys with scouts and AWP's in the tower and behind the rocks at spawn, covering the topside approach to bridge. Don't bother to rush the top; you will get steamrolled. have the everyone else run fast to the lower site and throw HE's at the bottom of the elevator shaft
T: have the entire team move in force, fast, one way or other. if the CT's call in reinforcements before you plant, you are hosed. your best bet to lower site is to have 2 guys to sacrifice themselves by dropping down the elevator shaft instead of descending the ladder. they should drop and immediately throw flashbangs and HE grenades to hold off CT's. the bomb can be planted hidden behind the box. If you have good teamwork you can pretend to attack a site to draw defenders from the other, then attack there instead.
whoever is holding the bottom of the elevator shaft should keep the elevator in the UP position at all times; there is no way down without announcing your presence by lowering the elevator first
