The Wheel of Time is, hands down, the greatest FPS multi-player game ever. It came out at the same time UT did. However, it was way ahead of it's time. The combat system is so complex it takes months to master. Instead of just shooting an opponent with a gun, you use magic based weapons. Every weapon in the game with the exception of Balefire (one shot, one kill) has a counter. So, you can imagine some amazing, lengthy firefights with skilled players.
The CTF mode called Citadel allows you to set up your base with traps and other nasty surprises to slow the opposing team down. It also lets you move the seals (flags) to anywhere you want.
It's a game that you really just can't describe. It has to be played. It never did well in sales, though. I think the learning curve was too steep for the average gamer.
