Name: CTF-ThornsClassic
Version: v1.0
Compatibility: UT3 - shouldn't need anything more than the base game, and it's patches - of course.
Description: A nostalgic port of the old UT99 classic, Thorns. A close-quarters, arena-style CTF map. This one is for the fans.
Comments: This map was a lot of fun to make even though it only took me less than 10 hours to make. The textures are all ported from UT99, and the map itself is 99% BSP. Although this is a port, it is a handmade port - not a copy/paste conversion. The scaling to the original is pretty accurate, I'd say. It's an exact replica.
For everyone who hasn't played Thorns, which I'm sure a lot of you haven't - this map is a pretty linear, arena-style, CQC styled map. Both flags oppose each other, with a damage amplifier in the middle. Yes, it's a spam fest - but it's one of the best there ever was in my opinion.
It's just a lot of fun to play.

Credits: This particular map is my own doing, and my own doing alone. But I referenced other maps for it, and I have full credited the original authors who's work I've referenced for this map in the readme file of this map.
