It seems pretty clear that the 2 main areas to control is the RA area and the 9towers area. At RA you got RA, RL and a MEGA. At 9towers you got the second RL, LG, YA and MEGA.<br>

As the map name mentions, the 2 towers are what you need to take advantage of. The big main room with the big tower got everything...except the LG. However the tower got multiple ways to get in and out of so guarding it wont be easy. Also the large area surrounding the tower can not be covered by 1 player, maybe not 2 either. The other tower should be less difficult to control. Also you got a RL, the LG and other important items in other isolated locations. The 2 quads also presents a challenge as it will be very hard to time both of them; only pixel perfect teamplay will do that.  
The RA area is designed in such a way that you need to leave the RA floor to get HP. Thats not really satisfying when there are 2 spawns at RA floor + the GL.<br>
 
At 9towers you will not get YA unless you RL jump, so you must have the RL. There is also another YA pretty close but you need to go down 1 floor to get it...also that YA is on a spawnpoint. You can RL jump back, or just take the teleporter below. But all this is not done in 3 seconds.<br>
 
In the middle of this you got Quad...that sits on a pretty dangerous spot.<br>
 
The fight for Penta will also take a new twist...let the flood commence.

Savage Towers (savage.bsp) is a 4on4 Team Deathmatch map created from March to May 2021 by Flag nl.gif QuakeR and Flag no.gif Link.
The map was originally made by the Single Player mapper Ankh from Denmark Flag dk.gif. The title name was "Hangover Devastation". Quaker did a full rebuild because of FPS issues.

The original map (hdn.bsp) had great potential and looked pretty good in size, no adding of rooms or deleting of realestate was needed. To convert this into a playable 4on4 map, a lot of editing was done. It takes a little time to learn the maps tricks but the map is real different from any other. There are 9 spawnpoints.

Savage Towers got a large main room with a huge tower in the middle of it. Another tower is located not far away. These 2 towers got a lot of important items in it. One RL and the LG are located away from the towers. A lot of trickery on this map and when you learn the routes the map is fast paced. The map got 2 quads and one quad needs to be opened by a button; you got 2 buttons that both open that quad. Despite some of the large areas the map brings you tight hallways and small rooms as well; all kinds of fights will happen.

Strategy & Tactics

As the map name mentions, the 2 towers are what you need to take advantage of. The big main room with the big tower got everything...except the LG. However the tower got multiple ways to get in and out of so guarding it wont be easy. Also the large area surrounding the tower can not be covered by 1 player, maybe not 2 either. The other tower should be less difficult to control. Also you got a RL, the LG and other important items in other isolated locations. The 2 quads also presents a challenge as it will be very hard to time both of them; only pixel perfect teamplay will do that.
