Two sides, a huge cave in between, one bridge going from side to side, bridging the gap between two teams, bridging the gap between hope and despair.

Map Description
Bridge of Fate is a large Capture the Flag map set in a moody cavern. The 2 bases are divided by a large canyon that runs through the middle of the map. There are 3 bridges that cross this canyon, one of which is broken, but the gap can be jumped over. The bases feature an enormous hall with sky-high pillars and a few other, smaller rooms. There is virtually no z-axis gameplay here, apart from the Flag room and the area in/around the canyon.

Trivia
- This is one of the maps which shipped with the UT2004 demo. The other maps are AS-Convoy, BR-Colossus, DM-Rankin and ONS-Torlan. A latter demo also added CTF-FaceClassic and ONS-Primeval.
- Unlike CTF-FaceClassic, this map never got too popular.
Author's Notes
It started with just the flag room. I designed it more for visuals and fun, rather then gameplay, but when I walked around it I started to get a feel for it as a base. I then added the room with the big pillars as a middle area and copied the base over. I kept the entrances to the base small because I turned it into a bombing run map.
In UT2003 you can throw the bomb ahead of yourself and then teleport to the same spot with the translocator without much delay. This made defending a base very hard. With small entrances the defenders have an easier time fighting against this.
Later I added the cave area as the new middle area, to make the map harder and a bit slower paced. The CTF version was modified even more with adding separate rooms on each of the pillar rooms, to make flag running easier. It created more hide and seek gameplay that way.
I was responsible for most of the layout / meshing / lighting and bug fixing.[1]
