KotH Drainpipe A24e

[shark]

Drainpipe - A King of the Hill map; my first map for TF2.

The development of koth_drainpipe has been my first full dive into Hammer and TF2 mapping. The map is being developed with Highlander in mind, as that is the format I play the most, but I hope to be able to balance it for most competitive play if possible.
