      8.5

      Pros:

      + Fresh feeling. Has quite a nice intro.
      + Snow and ice is quite nice. The fact that you slide keeps me occupied for quite a while.
      + "Snipers in the hills" are very useful. Unrealistic, but useful.
      + Great selection of weapons.
      + Unique. The building feels warm, and cozy.

      Cons:

      - The fireworks to call the snipers was in the most inconvenient place.
      - Not many places to hold off.
      - Dogs? Frozen animals? It was a bit out of place.
      - For a hunting lodge, the owner must be extremely rich to only access it by helicopter, considering the entire place is a crater.
      - The building is near-impossible to defend.

      Conclusion:

      Re-playable, and initially quite a fun map. But very difficult to go anywhere with. Map is quite small, and feels pretty clustered. It'd be nice if this map was expanded a little, adding a few more places to go and potentially, to hold off.

      Pros:

      Good map size
      Slippery ice
      Cute dog <3 ^^
      Creative ideas
      
      Great skybox
      Good enviroment - its nice, but yet dark so zombies can spawn easy
      Challange
      
      Neutral (not good or negative)
      
      The intro
      

      Cons:

      Poster - survivor names are out of place
      A decal glitch at the car
      Sometimes hard for zombies to get up on the highest roof. More infected ladders perhaps?
      

      Conclusion:

      First of all, let me explain my neutral opinion about the intro.
      
      I like it. I mean, its creative, but you should use scripted dialouges becasue now you just used ambient sounds. I used to do that as well back at my first maps, but now I know how to use scripted dialouges and its actully really simpel. Their mouths dont move one bit while they are talking and you can use commands like "laugh, lets go" etc so both sounds are playing at the same time.
      
      Otherwise its nothing bad to notice and really few "errors" in it. I dont know how you managed to get that animated dog in your map, but I really like it! Maybe a bit unrealstic, I mean zombies ignoring a defenseless dog, but still its nice ;)

      Pros:

      Looks great
      Fun little events like Hillbilly help
      Great intro
      The dogs are funny
      Good amount of supplies
      Good design
      Good balance between easy and challenging

      Cons:

      The house itself looks blocky, most notably on the first level.

      Conclusion:

      Great map! However the retreat itself looks blocky. As this is the main focus of the map, it detracts from the score more than it usually would.

      3.5

      Pros:

      Nice Visuals, the mansion scenario is very intersting
      

      Cons:

      Ladder to get down from the start is hard to find
      Inexplicable spontaneous combustion of the chopper (I found it quite humorous so no points off)
      The dead deer rag-dolls are glitched
      You are a GOD on the rooftop
      

      Conclusion:

      This would be a fun map if the rooftop wasn't so overpowered, nothing can climb up there and tanks just die eventually, I would give this a 10 if this was fixed put until then It's just a broken map.
