Geonosis: Jedi Arena

Description
Here's an interesting look at an old concept. This is bobfinkl's 1.0 version of Geonosis: Jedi Arena. Unlike the previous versions, this one uses a new model for the arena rather than mountains and spires.

The only mode is Clone Wars conquest, in which you play as either the Jedi or CIS. Playing as the Jedi, you have about 1000 reinforcements and must hold out for a set amount of time. (It was seven or eight minutes, can't remember) The CIS have unlimited reinforcements. If the time runs out and the Jedi have reinforcements, they win. If the CIS kills all the Jedi, they win. It's not as easy as it seems, however. Play it and find out for yourself.

While it is an interesting change from the standard conquest mode, I can't say I had a whole lot of fun playing it. Gameplay consists of spawn, kill, die, spawn again, etc. There's nothing in the map except for the arena object and a couple of fallen pillars, and there's no terrain variation. It's a very basic map design with very little work on the part of the mapper, seeing as there's only about five objects total.

You'll see heroes running around; Jango Fett, Mace Windu, and Ki-Adi Mundi. If you get enough points, you can play as them as well. I also found it amusing that R2-D2 was the hero unit for the Jedi team, though it's hard to get many kills with him, since he has standard hero health and there's so many enemies.

Like I said before, an interesting concept, though execution isn't the best. Download if it sounds fun.
