Days ago, days which seem like months, months which seem like years, years which seem like days.

The water dissapeared. There was nothing left. The hardened men left with parched throats. Mothers clutching babies which cry uncontrolably. Lonely children left in the streets.

"The foreigners want pure water, so, why do they come to us? Our water is not pure, it is riddled with the filth of our land. With the blood, greed, and corruption of our people." Quoted from Village Elder

"What our people don't realize is, we claim to be selling pure water. The truth is, it is filthy. We simply purify it, and claim that it is fresh spring water from Mt.Kilimanjaro, all it is is filthy river water. You wouldn't believe what we find in the rivers... shrapnel, nails, glass, it's amazing. We could almost make as much selling scrap metal, as we do water." Quoted from CEO of Water Bottling Company

"Pitiful are what these men are. We the APR at least have a point. These men are only here for greed, and corruption. They lie to our people, and their people. They are the demons of the land. Men without souls. Men who live with the devil himself." Quote from Hakim Echebbi, a mercenary fighting for the people.

"In the local village of Hawaylo fighting has recently broken out. Many sources claim that the fighting is due to the village's water shortages." Quote from World News Reporter

"The UFLL is trying to be the savior for the nation. They are trying to make everyone favor them. They are trying to battle us, the rebels. Trying to make everyone turn against us, and forget about what we have done for this nation." Quoted from a UFLL Soldier

"Posterboys? Ha ha ha! They are full of themselves! We tried to figure out some sort of agreement with the fools, yet they declined our offer of uncut diamonds. They declined our peace offering. They chose to spray the blood of courageous, and stong countrymen. We simply wanted to work together to find out, and murder the stupid scum who took our water. The man in charge of stealing our water. This isn't the first time. The pitiful men even try to sell our water back to us." Quoted from a UFLL Elitist.

"This war is the cause of many things. Other countries robbing this very one. All I do is supply weapons. All I do is live my life, and make money. They claim that I am a mad man. I am a simple visionary. They believe that I killed my family, and set our house aflame. They say... they... am many people. They say... the devil himself. So many innocent people die because of me. Is it my fault? I am only a weapon supplier. I am not... e guy shooting my weapons." Unknown Source. Discovered on a burned, and torn peice of paper. Much of the information is blurred, and burnt. Possibly for the Jackal?

"We caused a war? Ha! Are you trying to sell me lies? Unbelieveable. Look, all we are doing is harvesting natural spring water from Mt.Kilimanjaro. We, my whole corporation has nothing to do with those petty African wars. they are just finding reason to shoot eachother. Look, I donate to charity, I am a good guy. My money isn't harming those people, it is helping them. Quote from Corporate Head of Water Bottling Company.

So, This is my newest map, Watchfire. A fishing village set along a dried up river. A river that lost it's water due to water processing. The map takes place in the savanna woodlands, in a deep valley. The land has always been dry, and is claimed to have slight bits of desert terrain, and large rock formations.

The map is asymetrical, with lots of cover, and a natural look to it, as you should expect from most of my maps... (or so people say)

I hope you guys enjoy my maps. I do have a few published, I just hate posting my articles here, since I have them posted on Gamermade.net, and FCMaps.net, and Genesis Device from time to time. I hope you guys do get a chance to download and play it on the Xbox 360. It is one of my personal favorites.

Thanks Again, Mac777777!

First of all, really nice backgroundstory and idea behind the map.

Judging from the screenshots this is my kind of map, realistic and natural looking. All the detailing I see in the pictures is right up my alley too, the place looks like people have lived there, this should be good!

I'll make sure to download this map first thing when I'm online with xbox again

Hey, thanks for the comment Bud. All of my maps are pretty natural. I hope you do check them out. My map with the least downloads is actually my first map which I recently rediscovered. Thanks for your comment.

I checked out a map of yours with an industrial plant, Wolf. Quite nice.

Mac, I've already told you that I like most of your maps, but I'm going to say it again. This map is ****ing awesome. It looks great, plays great, no gimmick whatsoever. Just a straight-forward, in-your-face map.

Looks like a great map. If someone said it shipped with the game, I'd believe it. But, I think you messed up the UFLL soldier's quote. It says "the UFLL is trying to make the people turn against us", shouldn't that be a quote from an APR soldier?

Thanks Skorpius... But kindly define a gimmick please.

Here you go:
an ingenious or novel device, scheme, or stratagem, esp. one designed to attract attention or increase appeal.

That was the context I was using.

I just downloaded it to have a closer look, and I must say it looks great!

There's a few clipping errors, esp. with some (water) barrels on the UFLL side, but that tiny detail aside the map looks awesome. The interiours are great, and I love the attention to detail you put in, putting effort in tilting and rotating objects for a more natural and lively appearance, stuff like the collapsed floor in a building and the makeshift crates, and the makeshift structures that are so well made that they are easily mistaken for ready to use editor buildings. The natural surroundings you made are very good too, and I love the overall atmosphere you created.

I'm happy you posted here, these are my kind of maps for sure! I'll be having a look at your other maps now

Thanks for your comments, glad you enjoyed it. Feel free to send me a friend request, since I am trying to reestablish decent friends in the community. Look at Slickleg, or Workhorse. I am sure you'll like them. I've been mapmaking since instincts, so that could be a possibility of why you like my map.

I had thought you were just on vacation or something. Did you remove me because you disliked the fact that I enjoyed your maps?

I kinds of got mad at everyone in the community for being so stuck up... So I deleted mostly everyone. So I went from 74 friends to like 37. Anyways, anger aside. I hope you guys enjoy my map, and thanks for the comments.

Wow, thanks, didn't see that one there. I won't fix the quote cause Im on my mobile, but thanks for noticing. How dare you poo t out my faults! :P

Instead of posting a brand spanking new thread, I'm gonna bump up this age old thread. I republished this after a stupid mishap of deleting it off the servers. So redownload it folks.

Awsome Map, Nice story. Great Showing . 5 out of 5

Really nice map! It reminds me of Pitbull a little. That's one of the original maps shipped for Ranked Matches.
