Naw... there should be some kind of cowbell for a door opener device at the entrance.
That way the only way to get in is to ring the cowbell.

At no point I was going to add a 'Test Of The Union' to the start of the map which would have involved the playiers navigating a pitch black sewer system without a flashlight or HEV for protection.

I did'nt add it as it would have made the map too long...

But the entrance to the map is a teleporter, you could put it anywhere. Just put the obstacle course and teleporter above/below the main part of the map and you wouldn't have to go off the Hammer grid.

Some bitchin' about the map follows. Please take into account that these are my opinions only, and since I am not a mapper nor in any way involved in the creation of this HQ, it's only my point of view and not something to take into account as required alterations:

- The "Lost Coast" bit at the beginning is not only annoying for comic makers like me that often load the same maps a shitload of times for one or two poses, but also incredibly broken. It feels like simple "showing off" instead of something really required, and feels amateurish;
- Likewise, the Chris NPC feels like someone had just learned how to do NPC's and wanted to show off about it. Sure, it's an amusing addition, but in no way does it improve the map, and it forces players to have to get even more crap for the map to work as you want it to;
- In general, excluding cetain parts such as the gathering room (which I loved and will be using), the map has little logic and most of it is composed of short, compact corridors and simple rectangular rooms that would look terrible when used in a comic, and would be extremely boring on a GMod server.

Remember - just my opinions. You can tell me to fuck off about it if you want, I'm just speaking my mind.

Approximately what I was thinking but in fewer words, I'm going to do some new Union designs and start a new thread for the new map (It will take less time to make a new one than completely update the OP and that).

I would only say two things:
One:
"little logic" makes me laugh on two accounts, first the idea that logic has size, and also the idea of Logic being a part of the BRAIN DEAD Union is comical.
(Keep in mind that whole statement is meant to be humorous)
Two:
As long as there's a janitor's closet... I will be a happy happy little janitor.

Your arguments are stable, but you express them in a far too aggressive manner! That gives a bad impression of yourself.
