KotH Embankment A3

Embankment - "All services are suspended due to mercenaries on the line..."

A King of the Hill map based in central London, with the teams fighting over control of an Underground line. My third attempt at a TF2 map set in the British capital, but now with a layout and setting I’m finally happy with. Features lots of UK-themed assets which will eventually see a release in the London content pack, for which this map will hopefully act as something of a showcase (as Hardhat, Suijin and Shoreleave were to their respective content packs).

Credits to FGD5 and Cytosolic for the London models used in the map so far.

• Drastically widened and expanded mid, including much more space behind the point
  
• First and second paths from spawn now reworked to be simpler and less mazelike
• Third path from spawn now opens up onto lower level embankment terrace as well as onto Tube line trackside
• Removed weird covered bridge with full health pack
• Added high ground behind point, accessible via first path from spawn, hopefully to give attackers a bit more of an advantage
• Changed layout of staircases in spawn yard leading to footbridge and second path
• Temporarily removed 3D skybox
• Begun some minor detailing
