Description
Originally released in September 1998 by Macmillan Digital Publishing, Battlezone: Battle Grounds was Battlezone's first expansion and one of its best-kept secrets. Its collection of nearly 100 maps, spanning Instant Action, Deathmatch and Strategy, showcased the best maps the community had to offer.

This collection contains Battle Grounds' thirty-six Deathmatch maps. Each will be slowly updated over time to bring them up to our own exacting standards.

Eight Corners
Created by Ded10c
"This is a very nice Sniper map. In the middle there is an alien building that can be hidden in and used for cover. Lots of places to hide and enough transports around to keep the battle interesting. A few surprises await as well!" - Battle Grounds review ...
Achilles 500
Created by Ded10c
"This is a great Racing DM level! The terrain is done very well and the track is easy to drive. The pitstop is a very original idea. There are lots of powerups to keep the race going, but stay on the track! The more players the better." - Battle Grounds re...
Ancients
Created by Ded10c
"One of the better Deathmatch levels I've seen. Map resembles old castles and other structures. Powerups are in hard to get places so some planning will be required. Ambush and teamplay strategies will do well on this map. Good attention to terrain detail....
Base Raid
Created by Ded10c
"Very good DM/Sniper map. This map is best for teams trying to protect bases. But it still can be played as a regular DM. Some of the best terrain I've seen. Loads of tanks and powerups." - Battle Grounds review team Author: Matt "CiderPunk" Lander World: ...
Battle: CCA vs NSDF
Created by Ded10c
"Choose your game, CTF, Capture the Relic, CCA vs NSDF, Capture the fort, or just plain old Deathmatch. This map is set up to do all of them! Two forts on opposite ends with lots of respawning buildings, tanks, and powerups. There is also a relic in the ce...
Battlefield
Created by Ded10c
"Map is mostly made up of hills and valleys. On the top right are a series of gullies next to some mountains. Powerups are not scarce and terrain varied. Map is very big and should be played with the maximum number of players." - Battle Grounds review team...
Bunker Hill
Created by Ded10c
"A very different Deathmatch level. The map is broken up into many small squares with powerups in each. On the ends are larger rectangles with a few more weapons. Most of the action should take place in the center section." - Battle Grounds review team Aut...
Call of the Wild
Created by Ded10c
"Basic DM level that was created for COW matches. The map is a bit rough and not well set up. There are plenty of powerups and weapons but are hard to find at times because the confusing terrain. This map will be best played with at least eight people." - ...
Carnival
Created by Ded10c
"Map is a bit on the large side for a DM map. The terrain work is good but not really functional. There are enough powerups and hiding places for a good struggle. This map will be best fought with a full load of players." - Battle Grounds review team Autho...
Cheeto Land
Created by Ded10c
"Cheetoland is a fairly basic sniper map. The terrain is not too obtrusive and it has some neat features like alien relics (a good place to hide and provide some cover). The map contains four ships. One Scavenger, an APC, and two Tugs. This map should prov...
Complex
Created by Ded10c
"This is one of the best Sniper maps around. Custom textures make the level look and feel like an old dark complex. Great attention to art and detail. Transports have been slowed down to fit with surroundings. This one is a winner!" - Battle Grounds review...
Crossfire
Created by Ded10c
"Very good sniper map. Map has four cross sections and four CCA transports around the center to start. Map is just the right size and has lots of nice rounded bumps and hills as well as geysers to hide around. Art and terrain are very good." - Battle Groun...
Deadly Ground
Created by Ded10c
"This map is extremely well designed and should make for a good DM map. There are a few play areas on the map, but power-ups are not scattered about everywhere you look so this might be for the slightly more professional DM player. Good dogfight terrain." ...
Dragon's Mouth
Created by Ded10c
"This DM map is based on a custom version of Io called Furnace. This has a good terrain that will suit vehicles of all types. The author has also created some new fog effects, which give the planet a 'hot' feel. It has been well put together and designed. ...
Dream Land
Created by Ded10c
"This map has a good random feel to the terrain and is well constructed. There are several main fight areas and also a good quantity of power-ups that appear to have a re-spawn time of approx. 10 seconds. A good little map that would be ideal for people to...
Endor Sans Ewoks
Created by Ded10c
"This map has a interesting terrain design based around very tall spikes which I assume is the BZ equivalent of trees. There are a number of openings throughout the map, which for a change have some buildings in them. " - Battle Grounds review team Author:...
FireRock
Created by Ded10c
"Basic Deathmatch level with more repair and ammo pods than most DM maps. Terrain is mainly rocky mountains on an otherwise flat surface. Fighting around the mountains should be easy. Best for 8 players." - Battle Grounds review team Author: Samuel "Hirang...
King Flanker
Created by Ded10c
"This is a symmetrically based map that focuses around a center spike. It has a few powerups dotted about. There are very few places in which the inexperienced player can hide, this is not a map for the amateur against the pro. If you are unlucky enough to...
Walker Arena
Created by Ded10c
"This DM Walker map is based on Io. The map has a good terrain and although it is not a traditional Walker map it makes a nice change. Each player starts at the bottom of a hill and has to work up to a central peak There are a few power-ups available." - B...
Moonlight Sonata
Created by Ded10c
"Large and basic Deathmatch level that features some very moonlike terrain and enough powerups to keep up a good fight. This was one of the first user maps to come out for Battlezone." - Battle Grounds review team Author: Kevin Hoekman World: Luna Size: Me...
Drive-In
Created by Ded10c
"This map is DM based in a cinema complex. This is an outstanding DM map; never have I seen the like. It is all based around a drive-in movie theater (hence the name). Every texture is new and there are some great ones to look at, though in areas the varie...
Strike at the Heart
Created by Ded10c
"An almost perfect map, with excellent and well-judged terrain. However, the textures used are a little bland, and powerups could be a little more plentiful. On the whole, an excellent map for deathmatch." - Battle Grounds review team Author: "Monkey Wrenc...
Aftermath
Created by Ded10c
"Really nice looking and playing Sniper Deathmatch level. Play in not confined to any single spot; tanks and powerups are abundant throughout the level. Bases add a nice affect and functionality to the map" - Battle Grounds review team Author: "Valas" Worl...
Ridge of Doom
Created by Ded10c
"I believe this to be a first effort from the author and a fine effort it is. Although in places the landscape is a little flat it has some great areas of scenic beauty. The are 4 main play areas that have a seemingly random raised elevation--though these ...
Outpost
Created by Ded10c
"This is a great little DM map for the Sniper. The terrain features & landscaping are well formed, which provides a great search and destroy element to the map. Reloading is provided by a custom low powered Scavengers. " - Battle Grounds review team Author...
Q4RaceTZ
Created by Ded10c
"A great Deathmatch map that has four distinct playing areas surrounding a central hub. The terrain is very tricky and well thought out. Some power-ups are located in areas that are hard to get to. However, the harder they are to get to, the better quality...
Rampage!
Created by Ded10c
"A Deathmatch map that has been very well designed. It is has a number of small battle areas as well as some elevated areas. Some of the elevated areas can be tricky to get to in certain types of ships. This is another map that will reduce the amount of bo...
Rave Race
Created by Ded10c
"A Deathmatch map that is shaped like a race track. It has been well thought out. All of its jumps etc makes for a difficult course. Add to this the fact that you are going to be going up against opponents that will be shooting at you, bumping you and gene...
Rave Zone
Created by Ded10c
"A very simple Deathmatch map, for the complete lunatic that wishes to kill everything in sight. Based on a flat surface, only a few natural obstructions will provide cover from advancing enemies. This map revolves around the use of RAVE & MAG guns. It has...
Sniper Arena 2: Night Fight
Created by Ded10c
"This map is for DM/Sniper games and is based on the Moon. This is number 2 in the series of Sniper Arena maps and second only to Number 5 in quality. It was one of the first dedicated Sniper maps to hit the net and proved to be quite popular. It has a goo...
Sniper Arena 5: Suburb
Created by Ded10c
"This is number 5 in the series of Sniper Arena maps and by far the best. It has a reasonable size play area that is relatively flat, but buildings that have been placed in the area that compensate for this. Again unfortunately Scavs have been used as relo...
Scouts & Rockets
Created by Ded10c
"This is a pure Deathmatcher's map. You can only pick between Flankers and Razors. And the only weapons you get are Miniguns and a single rocket. Terrain is very basic but that purpose of this map." - Battle Grounds review team Author: Phillip "Uglydog" Ta...
Sniper Town
Created by Ded10c
"This level resembles a town from the old west. Roads and raised terrain made to simulate buildings help with the feel. Transports are available and there are lots of rooftops to snipe from." - Battle Grounds review team Author: Phillip "Uglydog" Tanner Wo...
The Hills
Created by Ded10c
"This map has the word 'average' written all over it. Nothing special, but yet still enjoyable for a quick Deathmatch. Lacks a final punch, one thing which stands out in your mind (apart from the gigantic mountain in the middle). Terrain feels a little rus...
Volcanos
Created by Ded10c
"This DM map is based on Io. It has a very original sort of design and is full of terrain features. There is an actual volcano on the map--in the middle of which is a power-up. This map contains various powerups throughout the map. I am not sure why there ...
War Zone
Created by Ded10c
"The map is based on a simple concept and carries it across well. The terrain is not over the top nor is it flat. There is something for everyone here. It could make good Dog fighting territory as well as Bomber paradise. There are very bumps in the way so...
