Oasis [WIP]

[Picadilly]

With all of the new desert themed maps coming out, I noticed one thing lacking: a transitionary town area with a desert theme. So, I've begun a map that I hope will fit the bill.
So far, the concept is simple: a town that's situated around a hidden oasis. It would seem that the inhabitants keep a low profile, in consideration the massive amount of evil in the general vicinity. The town does have its own problems, however. I don't want to be a spoiler, so I'll just say that there will probably be a bit of low to mid level mischief, and even high level if some ramping can be adapted.
I really like the concept of Edana, and I hope to incorporate some of it's positive features, hopefully with more detail. I like that Edana has shops and some training available. I like that it's got some possibilities to explore. I hope to include these features in this new project.

I would also like to add, if the community feels that this map concept isn't really "in-need", then I'll be glad to accept suggestions on a better adaptation of the map. Also, this is my first time making a map on HL1 Worldcraft, so don't expect it to be very "pro-looking"...

Here are some previews:

It looks good, but I think Thothie has death threats against people who make towns. Perhaps they're more aimed towards BASIC towns like ms_town, though. So long as you keep plenty of things in the map other than shops and the like, you should be gold.

Looks awesome. I'm sure it will be good.

Meh, not much of an oasis in my mind. Doesn't look bad though.

I see this as a very interesting idea - I hope you can get this done!
