Following is the readme of the original Q3A map:

====================================================
title: La Bastille
file: bastir.pk3
author: Sock
email address: sock#planetquake.com
URL: Planetquake.com
Version: 88
description: Dark gloomy prison map.
Carved from mountains and chasms.
====================================================

Finally completed this map! Its been a long and hard
journey with many things breaking on the way but it
finally compiled and here it is! This map was built
with plenty of help from people in the Q3 community
and without their assistance it would have stayed on
my HD for good.

The map is based on a gloomy keep/prison atmosphere,
a placed carved from oppressive mountains and bottomless
chasm's. The layout is based on my favourite Quake 3
Capture The Flag map Q3CTF3. I've spent many a hour
playing that map and have on several occasions started
to make my own version. Finally after years of failed
start maps I have created my tribute to Q3CTF3. With
this opportunity I have re-arranged several key items
and hopefully made the layout more open for player
movement.

There is so many area's of this map I do love the look
of and spent many weeks and months re-creating each
section over and over again until they looked and felt
right. Not all of the original detail is in this map
(for r_speed reasons) but most of the original impressions
are still present.

The map supports many different game types from Vanilla
Quake 3 to Team Arena and finally Threewave. I have
included enough spawn points for a good 4v4 game and
with the size of this map, I recommend you have plenty
of players anyway! Unfortunately most of the testing
I have done with this map has been with bots and no
matter how much you bend the map to their needs it
still does not compare to human players.

One final note is that without djbob's help this map
seriously would not have seen the light of day. Very
early on the development of this map I hit a compiler
limitation which stopped me duplicating the bases. Luckly
for me I spoke to djbob about the problem and he very
kindly produced another compiler version. It required
600Mb of memory to compile and alot of HD space but
evenually it popped out of the compiler oven.

Enjoy
