Version 5? What happened to 1-4?

Well, I spared you the grief :) Oxbow II has been a long time coming, but it's finally here. The orginal Oxbow was, well, not as pretty or stable as it could have been. Oxbow II addresses these issues.

It's a FFA map, with a lot of variants to keep you interested. It has a dark mesh, "Oxbow II (Dark Days)", which is rainy, muddy, and generally miserable. It includes an interesting mix of dark units, including GodzFire's Spider Queen conversion (thanks againGodzFire!). It also has an all Dorf series of variants, "OxbowII (Dorf War)" which includes an 8 start riot mesh. This 8 start mesh is unlike other riot maps though, as you can choose between a wide variety of new dwarf units, donated by my order mates in The Regular Order of Fries (thanks BifBologna and ClanKeith!).

I've gone througha considerable amount of trouble to keep the playablity extremely high. There is always an opportunity to assemble either very diverse or very homogeneous forces during unit trading. Want all Spider Queens or Dwarf Marines? More power to ya!

I've also made these meshes in two versions, one with a center position and one lacking it for KOTH and Deathmatch. I always enjoyed that moment of stark terror in Myth: TFL when you realize that you will be fighting a four-front war! However, on this map the center postion is quite survivable :)
