Big thanks to Son and Grumx!

=======================================================
Description
=======================================================

Small, tourney map for fast and furious duels. 
I focused on gameplay, item balance, etc. The look 
was not so much important to me so the map isn't 
stunning in terms of visuals. But it is good enough 
IMHO. Looks almost like Raven/Id levels, but (hopefully)
plays a lot better. Also, it has got lower system 
requirements :)

(maybe it is fault of my video card)
- I forgot to add few textures of lamps, so there
are places lightened by an invisible light source
- I know it's blocky, dumb and "Volvo" style - that was 
intended :P
- I forgot the rest... ;)
