Rotunda - Crimes Against Instances

Hi! I present Rotunda, a King of the Hill map set in an abandoned steam engine workshop. This map is directly based on the mapping technique developed by Kungfusquirrel for koth_roundhouse. It has been made with a very large number of instances and a lot of trial and error.

Terribly sorry, but my Spanish is kind of limited. This is about the map name?

In German it would be Rotunde, in Italian Rotonda.
