The Medieval Saga continues with its second chapter: The Gate

Set around the massive entrance of a fortified stronghold, this map expands the battlefield beyond the walls, introducing a more open yet strategically layered layout.

Gate features a classic competitive design with two bombsites (A and B) and a central Mid area that directly connects to Bombsite B, while also providing access to Long A. Each side of the map is anchored by the Terrorist base and Counter-Terrorist base, positioned at opposite ends, creating a clear and balanced flow.

Both teams are given secondary routes toward the bombsites, allowing for flexible strategies and fast rotations:

Counter-Terrorists have a more direct path toward A Site, enabling quicker defensive setups
Terrorists can access B Site more directly, supporting aggressive executions

Bombsite B is larger in scale, offering more space for engagements, but includes additional cover for CT players coming from the CT side, making retakes and defenses more structured.

In contrast, Bombsite A features an extended Long area, providing two entry points into the site as well as a direct connection to Mid, though this route is more exposed and typically controlled by the CT side.

With its mix of open approaches, controlled chokepoints, and strong rotational options.

24 March 2026

New plan idea for bombsite A
Adjusted some plan routes
Added slow back into mid from B -> Mid
Few new textures
Fully TS base ready

(20% Progress)

29 March 2026

Added moutain rock walls
New plan for bombsite B
New rock textures
Reduced path to B from TS Base
TS can now hold exit of B to Mid (anti CT rush from B)

(35% progress)

31 March 2026

New textures created
New plan for CT base
River tunnel added between long and mid (A)
River upper extended from mid stairs
River long stairs added for more TS advantage

TS will control mid area and river, with a risk of course. In other hands.. CT will control bombsites and all important point to enter in each site. Mid to A -> super fast rotation, CT Base -> Easy rotation.

6 April 2026

New mid hold areas
Added hold stairs in A for MID HOLD
Larger area for LONG
New area for TS close to mid
New textures created (still need more textures)
All walls and building created

I find it difficult to find textures that fit well, so i need to create new ones until i get the right result.
Progress is now at 55%. All walls and buildings are finished, but i still need to work on textures, optimization, testing, visuals, and map details.
