This is somewhat of a sequel to koth_voltov, my 2018 summer jam map. I'd have done a stormguard/bunker sequel for the contest if I was confident that I could finish it in time (I wasn't), and my earliest koth map was deleted from the site long ago with no copies/screenshots remaining.
I ended up choosing voltov because it was the same gamemode as that earliest koth map and voltov is the earliest map of mine (other than the aforementioned) that I actually remember what I was thinking when I designed it and the inspirations around it.
This map keeps the idea of the train spawn exit, a long deathpit around the point, a point over the pit with a path beneath it, and the holding position away from the cliff - as with the earliest iterations of voltov, I took some of the inspiration for that back area from the map koth_pacific by defcon, which I feel has some very interesting gameplay spaces
