This map is really REALLY fun to play. Easily one of the best maps in the original Unreal when it comes to enemies doing a decent job chasing you around the place. It's also quite hard.

Probably the best of the pre-generator Mothership maps, with the big fight in the first half at least providing some intensity, I don't find too much standout about it beyond that. It does interlink in some nice ways though.

This was a hard map with some very intricate interconnections and hard gameplay. I found this a very well designed level (including ammo and health) - staying in one spot is a recipe for swift death but rushing away blindly also kills the player. On my first playthrough I died there numerous times but eventually I learned - this was THE map in which I realised that the DP can be used to light up areas far away and to see whether there is an enemy behind a corner.
This map returns a couple of maps later but then in darkness and then I have few positive feelings about it. But here the balance was hit just right, albeit still a very difficult map (for me: I don't like cramped areas).
