Abandon Ship! New Map Ahead!
3rd April 2008 - 12:45 pm (PDT -0700)

ARRR! Our development team is finally back from months of sailing and scouting in the high seas, searching for new maps to include in our next release. We're now proud to publish our first map update since our two releases, complementing our previous update on the Brig and on dem fabulous flying machines. In this update, we will explore a fresh, beautiful and above all exhilarating map from ½Hawk.

Shipwreck Shoals
Named after the most noticeable icon of this map, the central shipwreck is located slightly southwest from the crux of the map. This phenomenal shipwrecked galleon serves as the starting point for the Undead, offering a shielded vantage point for flag defense. The side windows are accessible and allow for entry to the aft deck, offering not only excellent visibility but excellent premises for long-distance shooting. However, once swarmed with Peglegs, it is indeed a real challenge to cleanse the flag from the enemy as squad leaders taking cover and serving as mobile spawn points works quite effectively here. Here are shots of both the map overview as well as of the shipwreck:
