Assassins is a frantic gametype where you are given mission: exterminate a specific player.
When a player enter the game, he'll see the target's name on his screen. No one else can be killed, except...
...the one that is hunting you. Yes, you can't forget it, because you've a target, but also you're someone's target, too. That's the interesting point of the Mod. You'll just know who's hunting you when the hunter hurts you. After that, his name will be shown on your hud.
In order to make the hunt algorithms work properly, in a game with more than 2 players someone will always be in spectator mode. When someone else die, the spectator joins the game and the dead one becomes the spectator.
When you kill your target, you'll get 5 points, and another target will be given to you. When you kill your hunter, you'll get 3 points, and another person will start hunting you.
If you kill someone else, you'll lose 3 points. If you kill too many wrong targets, you will be declared a Looney. Looney can get points for killing anyone, but everyone may kill you to get 3 points.
The Mod is easily configurable and has a great bot support. It's a very simple but very entertaining new gametype.
looks like bounty from tribes 2, Cool!
It sounds like: Mutant from UT2k4 ...

I prefer it w/o weapons, so I can use my uber weapons mod ;)
Frantic... very fun.
i honestly didn't like this....u can improve it by adding "assassin" weapons.That'll surely draw crowds
