League

The Doctors have a comfortable 8 point lead, but Let the Bullets Rain could catch up with them. There has been a lot of great matches this season. And there is still time to join or create a team.

The third and final stage of the regular season has started. In this stage you can have a rematch as soon as you like. The last day of the regular season hasn’t been determined yet.

Maps

Drift Ice
by IAmYourFriend

Drift Ice has been on he sauerkraut game servers for a while now but has finally been released to the public. The map is similar to goon assault but the difference in height makes it have a totally difference atmosphere and play style. The map is roughly 4 blocks tall with a flat middle section between the two sides. The height allows for tunneling and the tunnelings allows for bunkers which leads to forts which then leads to different spots for snipers until you have a whole different map after 15 minutes. Good job IAmYourFriend and we hope you continue to make amazing maps.

KV6 and Other Mods

Famas Felin
by Dimi

The Felin is a bullpup design which when modeling can result in the gun sticking out of the player's back. Clearly, this gun was made with a lot of care as it fits nicely on the player and looks and sounds great. Here is a short video on the gameplay of the Felin. Mainly, the reason I'm doing a review on the Felin is the lack of skins for them. This was the one I liked the most.

M39 EMR
by ShadowRanger

I tried both the ironsight version and the scoped version of the M39 EMR. This gun sounds great, looks amazing, and the sights are accurate...well, the ironsights look realistic, but they seem a lil blocky and obtrusive. However, the scoped version is what I like. This weapon, is phenomenal. It at LEAST had to be 3-4 days in the making. In the video, you can see it at work. The main reason on this review? I love the gun! The M39 EMR is one of the few designated marksman rifles made. And it looks and sounds accurate too!
