Default Moonshine



Koth_Moonshine is an intense “King of the Hill” map set at the base of a beautiful mountain stream waterfall, which feeds into an industrial swamp basin community. Both teams attack through their industrial swamp communities, fighting to be the king of a shadowy bayou shipping house, which is cover for a top-secret surveillance outpost. This high intensity map provides multiple routes to the central point to guarantee vigorous battles as the point changes hands during game play.


Special thanks to the penny arcade test crew, tf2maps swamp team for putting together such a great swamp pack, and xzzy, for the great gmod picture(used in poster).

Thanks and enjoy.

It looks pretty.

I'm not sure if there's enough room to fight and options to use though.

I like the entire look of it, except for that damn waterfall. Swamps don't really have waterfalls. They are just swamps, with a lot of water and a lot of foliage.

And, its a good map. Looks like you could get some great gameplay out of this. Detailing looks nice, except for the damn waterfall.

Well, whatever it is...the map is fun regardless. I played it with some friends earlier, and it is well deserving of a download.

Scaling looks appropriate. Perhaps a bit small but negligably. Layout looks unique and fun, atleast from what i can make of the CP area.

Second screenshot showing the front of that building.. the building looks odd. If that's a chimney it's friggin huge, and the roof seems bland. But overall it looks well detailed.

That building in the second screenshot is the spawn...thus, it's blandness. Once you see it in-game, it's not so bad.
