AvP2 Fortress took another step towards beta, by implementing in today's build team aware mines, and by adding the final game mode: One Flag CTF. The rules for One Flag CTF are quite simple:
- a green flag is spawned somewhere in the middle of the map

- to score, you'll need to touch your own flag (yes! your flag is in the enemy base!), if you're still alive, of course.
To make things clearer, here's a short video:
Besides the mines and the new game mode, the mod evolved in two different ways:

Until he decides to join moddb.com, we'll be showcasing his work. For start, the neutral zone of a future CTF/1FCTF/WAR map:
For all AvP2 mappers, we've also uploaded an archive containing critical informations needed to build maps for AvP2 Fortress. So, mappers, take a look at this guide. All-in-all, although Friday 13th, I feel lucky.
