Stranded - Destroy the rocket before it destroys you!

Map on steam workshop! Click!

RED base was stranded, but re-activated on top of the mountain. Push the payload cart and destroy their rocket silo before they launch the rocket!

Stranded is a payload map, a result of nearly 8 months of hard work. The work continues and map fine tuning has just started. Please take a look and report any bugs you find. Thanks!

Hi, I run this map on a server! Every map I add to the server I go over beforehand and find and fix all exploits. Found two for this map.

Annoying when people sit up here, can't do anything about it.

Can sentryjump up here and build up ontop of the clip and negate that entire area, or drop down behind the clip and build a trap.
