Overview
Black Thorn featured 9 new single-player maps (originally it'd have been 10 but one was cut after the September 11, 2001 attacks). This delayed the original date of September 15, 2001. 6 new multiplayer maps, 10 new weapons, and a new multiplayer variation on the "Lone Wolf" game type in which one player takes on everyone else; the winner of the round then becomes the new "Lone Wolf".
