Captured.com — Cow and Chicken Quake 2 CTF Mod, by Reagles

"Welcome to Cow and Chicken. You are about to play one of the most fun mods ever created for Quake 2. The Gameplay is a blast. The game features both multi-arenas and one on one death matches arenas. However, unlike other mods the action here is pure capture the flag."

The Evolution of a Quake Map, by Caitiri — featuring Samurai Castles / Japanese Castles, by Mike g1zm0 Burbidge

"Samurai Castles by g1zm0 was part of the original Q2CTF L-Fire Map Pak beta release, but was removed from the final release after g1zm0 decided it needed a lot more work before he would be satisfied with it as a map. It ended up taking another 8 months before making its final entrance in the Q2 world, just before Q3 appeared on shelves. Out of all the L-Fire maps, it is the only one that has been ported to Q3, and by the original author. It is also the #1 played custom CTF map, and has just been voted into OGL's map pak (only one of three to make the cut). You can download the final Q2 version and the Q3 verions at Team 3's website (and be sure to go vote for the Q3 incarnation over at Lvl)."

UniCTF — Quake 2 CTF maps

"The assumption of the UniCTF project is to combine the original CTF and TDM games, in short it is the same CTF enriched with new TDM maps rebuilt (double, mirror reflection of the original maps q2dmX, q2duel8, fury, q2rdm2 ptrip etc., maps are larger and more dynamic than most maps that were in ctf) and the new mod... TDM enriched with CTF support. A significant difference is also the lack of grapple."

Gamers Extreme: Resources for the Hardcore Gamer — GX Guide to Quake II CTF

"Like the game of Quake II itself, Capture the Flag is an incredibly fun experience, but even that can be heightened greatly by understanding the basic and advanced strategies used by veteran players to frag and cap with ease. These strategies involve the knowledge and implementation of the game's 'Tech Powerups,' standard Deathmatch skills to employ in fights, and later, communication with members of your team, setting up offensive and defensive squads, and much more. CTF, as a 'goal-based' game, redefines standard free-for-all and team games, and is truly the Thinking Man's Quake II."
