These are completely original concepts tweaked with the help of the best clan I've ever been a part of, the Old Man Mafia.
Mongoose SWAT: Slayer, best played with 3 or 4 teams of either 2 or 4 players per team. You spawn near an indestructible mongoose with a teammate and you should both saddle up. Kills are worth 1 point, but assists add 4 points to your team score and a mongoose splatter is worth 5 points. Kills are easy to get as primary (and only) weapon is a Magnum and everyone has no shields and 10% damage resistance. First team to 100 wins. Upon respawn, you have a 5-second overshield to discourage spawn camping. I modified 3 maps for this variant and this game seems to work best on Valhalla. With less people, it can be played on Isolation successfully. With a large group, Sandtrap becomes perfect for Mongoose SWAT.
Electric Fence: Slayer, but played on a KOTH map. 2 large teams (6-8 players per team). I constructed a large "fence" (actually a hill) that makes anyone who touches it go slow, lose shields, and become very weak. Also if you hit the "fence" while driving a vehicle, you fall out of the vehicle. I had to move some spawn points, the turret, and the laser spawn out of the fence area, so I added another turret and another laser to balance the teams. There is a way to drive under the fence through the river with any vehicle, or you can fly a banshee over it to avoid the effect of the hill. Although it is a hill gametype, points are only awarded for kills. The fence slows down the pace of the game a bit, and anxious would-be-slayers will light up the fence whenever they cross it.
These files are up on my file share if you're interested. You need "Valhla Fence" map and "Electric Fence" gametype to play Electric Fence. You need "Mongoose SWAT" gametype and any of the "MongoSWAT" maps to play Mongoose SWAT. Link to dkhodz's file share.
