The Readme:
About the map:
This location was featured in the Clone Wars cartoon. It's set in and around the village, and includes the Nelvaanians that inhabited it in their combat gear. Although there was no combat actually in the village in the Clone Wars, it does make for a great combat location.
About the Jedi:
Squyy Dazo (Sq-why Dah-zoe) is a Zabrak trained in the art of the Sith, much like Darth Maul. Squyy didn't agree with the dark side and ways of the Sith, and was able to disband. The Jedi order couldn't trust him, and would not take him in, so he went to hide from the Sith on the planet of Nelvaan. The Nelvaanians took him in and gave him the tattoos on his face. Since the planet is so cold, he developed a new force power, force heat, to keep himself warm. In its most extreme use, it can be a very powerful weapon, but only at short range.
The jedi's name, like many Star Wars names, comes from a combination of the creators names.
Asajj Ventress was also in the clone wars cartoons, so I thought she'd make a good fit here, even though she was never shown on Nelvaan. Plus Grieveous was causing problems with the map
Map features:
Conquest
1-Flag
2-Flag
Hero Assault
Hunt

OLD WIP POST BELOW
I'm pretty far along on my second map Nelvaan: Village, and I'll definitely be completing it, so I thought I'd post a screenie or two of my modeling progress thus far.
Here's a picture of Nelvaan from the Clone Wars cartoons.
and here's a screenie of my modeling progress thus far.
(the little square outside the door is for character reference. That's the approximate size of a player in relation to the map)
The map will have conquest and flag, and possibly hunt if I can think of a good hunt mode.
Heroes on this map will be Anakin, Obiwan, Grievous, and hopefully a new jedi with 'force heat', a force power that will incinerate anyone within a few feet of the jedi. Being that the jedi lives on such a cold planet, he often has to use heat for survival, and ultimately..defense.
I'll post progress in this first post as it moves along.
That's all I can say. This looks like it's going to be one impatient-waiting-for-release map lol.
