-=Insert generic opening statement here=-
Now with that generic opening statement out of the way, allow me to introduce you to a work that I believe is meant to be an MB2 map. The clue lies in the zip itself, I suppose. However, the map itself is indeed a duel map that all may use. Get it? Got it? Good =_=
The map consists of two areas; one is a sort of core room, I'm presuming, while the other room is the coolant tanks room. That's what I observed O_o. Textures are pretty standard, and the architecture is pretty solid, with the exception of the coolant tanks. They seem a little ill-formed. Also, not certain, but I believe there's a missing texture on the core emitter. Bot support is missing, which is probably a little more unforgiving on a duel map since the size is much smaller. Also, the music is there, but alas, I do not believe it works. Tisk tisk tisk!
However, this map still seems like an almost ideal battleground, not in the sense that it's BUILT for battle, but rather one could expect a random battle to occur here. The catwalks are wide enough to sustain a duel, while narrow enough to make them seem believable.
Duelists and MB2 wielders alike, I command you to EAT THIS FILE WITH THE BANDWIDTH MONSTER.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Place pk3 in base folder. Map is "Betrayal at Eosarim (DUEL) in the list.
DESCRIPTION: This is a cut down version of a Movie Battles II map I made. The central control area and processing areas, I thought, would make a neat duel area. So I removed extraneous areas, and played with the lighting a bit.
BUGS: None, AFAIK.
Backstory: The Second Battle of Eosarim was the first truly major battle of the Eosarim Crisis. The Jedi were held in containment cells awaiting transfer off Eosarim to Coruscant. Caluus managed to stay on the lander as the Jedi were restrained, incapacitated the few guards remaining, and unlocked the Jedi's cells.
Palpatine had engineered all this to be a test for the Jedi - if they could escape the admittedly substantial forces (including a ruthless Clone Commander Sacune, a couple of Clone Commandos, and a group of off-duty Clonetrooper Pilots with arm-mounted blaster cannons) on Eosarim, as well as Vader himself.
As the Jedi desperately fought their way through the complex to reach the fueling station, Caluus stalled Vader by engaging him in a duel near the control panel. The two moved on to the processing area, where Vader kicked Caluus down the stairs, then jumped down, impaling him in the chest with a mid-air stab.
