This map was originally created as part of the HoloReality mod but due to requiring Episode Two content it was removed. It is presented here in an AS IS state. This means that it was not extensively beta tested, has some visual errors and contains places where you can get stuck.
When commenting and rating please remember these points. It’s better to have it in this form than not at all.
My thanks go to Silverlan, the author, for agreeing to its release separately.

I only rated this a Play It Later because of the small but important issues in the map. If these were corrected then it would be a Play It Now! map.
SPOLIERS BELOW
I have to warn you this is a really hard map. Getting past the Bullsquid is a challenge, as is finding a way over the pit and tanker. Then if you manage those you still have to face a Hunter, a Combine Hunter Chopper and a Strider. Phew, tough map. Good Luck.

Except for the beginning bullsquid and the chopper that takes a million rockets to kill I found it rather fun.Would be great if the authour expanded on it and made some more maps and turned it into a mod.

Enjoyable and rather atmoshperic.
Just when I thought the end would be easy I got swamped with numerous enemies. Though I’ve gotten so used to half life over the years, I made it through with 97 health.
Might be difficult for casual players.
Overall worth playing

It took me a while to get past those striders and hunters but I pulled it through. Very awesome map.

I don’t what went wrong but I got as far as the circle of junk cars and vans and the two rebels and that’s it. The map went no further and I had to pull the plug. Too bad because the rest of it looks good. I tried twice to finish it but never saw the choppers or any real fighting. Don’t know if it’s my pc or the file.

Very hard at the end, but a very good map. Well worth playing!

I’m giving it a PIL because the end was pretty hard. No, it was very hard. I think I could finish it without dying (or cheats) with several replays.

I enjoyed the game until I got to the 3 rebels (one wounded on the ground) surounded by the tanker and the junk van with the rockets. One rebel said “Hi” and that was it. Tried a few times but no luck. No idea what the problem is. Running Vista 64-bit on a dual core lap top.

First of all… I cannnot believe Silverlan made this, I thought he was just a coder! Until I saw this! Man this is a heck of a map! I cannot believe he also made a bullsquid! How is that possible??? I’ll have to decompile and find out. Also: Wouldn’t you need the bullsquid model? IDK. Anyways, its fun when a hunter is sneaking up on you in the shed getting the Jalopy. Its also super fun driving over the hole! This is my PERSONAL FAVOURITE!
