------And Finally----------------------------------------------------

I'd like to say thanks to the NS Dev team for making this great mod that has kept me from doing as much homework as I should

I'd like to thank Plaguebearer for taking my mediocre layout and turning it into something awsome. Without his help you wouldn't be playing this map.

Thanks to TyrNemesis^ for helping me walk around the map and pointing out balance issues and node placement issues and generally helping to make Altair even better. Half the reason you are reading this file is because this guy helped make Altair what it is.
