Annex

From Gears of War

Annex is a multiplayer mode.

Annex has been released as an update for Gears of War. In this mode there are two teams, the COG and the Locust. If an player gets killed he will automatically respawn after up to 14 seconds. The respawn time is in intervals. The objective of this mode is to get the appointed score faster then the other team. If you have the score you need, you win a round. The team with the most rounds won, wins. To get this score, you need to stand in a circle surrounding a weapon. You can leave the circle once you have claimed it and still be able to score points. The circle will change after a amount of time to another weapon on the map. You can only get points if you 'activate' the circle or 'deactivate' the circle from the other team. It doesn't matter how many kills you have, for you receive only 2 points for every kill.

[edit] Trivia

• "Annex" is closely related to the Halo series' multiplayer mode "Territories" and is almost identical to Call of Duty 4's "Headquarters" multiplayer mode.
• The map pack Hidden Fronts was said to be made around the Gametype "Annex".
