Frostclaw is as about as simple as they come. It's a small CTF map with partially buried flags set in chute-style bases. Cappers can swoop in from either end of the base, grab the flag, and fly out the other end, all without losing speed. The map has no inventory stations, generators, sensors, vehicles or turrets. Everything must be scavenged from dead bodies or "Desert of Death" style weapon caches. The bases are close together, and the terrain is very kind to skiing.
Frostclaw will be the source of some interesting gameplay. Players spawn underground in their bases. Near the spawn locations are large amounts of energy packs, along with some health kits. This eliminates the need to stand around and wait for a pack to appear, allowing players to jump right into the action. Located between the two bases are laser rifles, grenade launchers, and a shocklance. It was my hope when designing this map to create a simple spawn map while retaining a fast pace. I believe I have accomplished this with Frosctclaw. The map features custom bases and a custom skybox made by myself.
