Slayer: Weakest Link

There are three ways to calculate the score for the Team Slayer game type:

Team Options: Team Scoring:

• Sum - this is the one eveyone is used to, every ones kills contribute to the team score
  
• Minimum - the team's score is the lowest score of all team members
  
• Maximum - the team's score is the highest score of all team members

Weakest Link is just like regular Team Slayer, except that is uses the second scoring option. The game's not over until EVERYONE on your team has 25 kills. That sounds a little brutal now that I think about it. Might want to dial the number of kills needed to 5 or 10.

Values:

• Team Work
• Individual Skill
  

CTF: Blood of Heroes

Idea:
Same as with the Oddball variant but as neutral flag CTF. Basically everyone starts with a magnum and that's it. You go out in the open, get the flag and hope you don't get killed. Save that ammo, though, because the only rounds you'll pick up are going to come off of corpses.

Probably best to play this one like the Secret Service on the President. The flag runner heads back to base and the rest of the team acts a like a human shield to protect him.

Additional Notes:
Played this 2v2 on Warlock and it really demonstrates the value of coordination and adaptibility. The team mates really need to be of a single mind in the opening seconds so the can attack effectively and get their hand on the flag. Then they need to adapt quickly to get the flag home, especially if one has died.

King of the Hill: Steadfast

Idea:

In a normal game of KotH, you have to hold the hill for 2 minutes to win. In this game, the principle is reversed. The period of time for a round is fixed and the score to win is unlimited. So whoever kick everyone else of the hill and rack up the most control time inside of five minute wins.

Just to make things even more interesting, all you have is shot guns. This keeps it nice and bloody as well as making sure people can't affect the game while sitting at a distance with long range weapons. Ditto no grenades.

Also consider having no shields, extra damage and multiple rounds to keep it interesting.

King of the Hill: Abattoir

From Monty Python's Flying Circus, The Architect Sketch:

This is a 12-story block combining classical neo-Georgian features with the efficiency of modern techniques. The tenants arrive here and are carried along the corridor on a conveyor belt in extreme comfort, past murals depicting Mediterranean scenes, towards the rotating knives. The last twenty feet of the corridor are heavily soundproofed. The blood pours down these chutes and the mangled flesh slurps into these...

This is the effect we're going for with this game variant. Imagine trying to hold the center square on Lockout while your opponents lunge at you with energy swords. Two words: Bloody.
