LOTX was a project I had in mind in some sorts well before I ever started mapping; In essence LOTX was always intended to be a multiple-episode series, with varying themes between. It was meant to be a sort of bridge of sorts; It's hard to explain in text. Basically, "Project Equinox" is a split from Elliot's "HAUNTED/HUNTED", a first-TF2-later-GMOD FPS D&D of sorts.

I could explain in greater detail, but what I'd need to say is huge and cannot be easily TL;DR'd.

All you gotta know is the (possible) episodes and/or one-off maps, LOTX is a placeholder indev name until I can think of a really nifty latin version of the words its' an acronym of, without changing the letter arrangement:

LOTX EP 0: unknown, more of a what-if prequel of sorts meant to bring the player up to speed on the setting

EP 1 [Colder than Hades]: You've seen me post and work on this thing. It's the series of broken down, shitty techbases on the moon of saturn, Enceladus.

Ep2 [Malagnenoth Cathedral]: An utterly immense hell-cathedral so large it contains several smaller structures inside of it. Experiments with hubs are one of the intent here. The entire theme for this episode is a mix of DVII's cathedral map, and Sunder's "zealous machine" in the later maps.

EP 3: Undecided on which will come first, thematically. One will be in the lieu of "hell on earth", but with the main antagonistic forces being the Talon of G'Jralkav (the Technomaris reforms into The Talon) and some minor hell and void works here and there when deviating from the hell-on-earth maps. Basically should look like reality is in the midst of being destroyed much like Heaven was. Name is likely to be "The Universe Ablaze"

Ep 4, if ep 3 is the hell on earth and reality destruction, then this is the Void series of maps. The protagonist is hot on the heels of the antagonist, His reality may be dead, but that's not a good thing to the Cultists. "Unto the Void" mayhaps for this one.
