VIP escort gametype?

I'm wondering if such a thing is possible and if someone can do it. I've had a VIP like mode running by just making team oddball with juggernaut. But I've been wondering if a SAPP script would be possible where you have a assault style game where one team escorts a VIP an the other has to stop them. I was thinking something like this:

Team A has VIP

Team B are the assassins

Team A must bring VIP to extraction point (flag cap point) to win

Team B must kill VIP to win

 

If possible I'd be grateful if the script could be made map specific so I can run it in the background

Tiddy-bits:

This'd be pretty cool. I'll chip in 5 tickets to anyone that fulfills this.


Oddly, this is familiar to you... as if from an old dream.

I'm actually surprised it's not done yet. I host a semi-private server from time to time and really want a script like this for say like Chronopolis. I've actually been trying to think looking at the LUA scripting for SAPP how it could be done. Actually I was bumming around here looking for scripts when I noticed help for map specific lua scripts which prompted the addition of that bit.

 

I've also been toying with additional concepts like:
VIP spawns with overshield

Possibly no weapons for VIP with the aformentioned OS

 

Additionally on the non script side I thought of making it life based to put emphasis on keeping the VIP safe and not running ahead like a idiot.

 

Actually as a reward I have something, no promises if I do actually have it. But from The Last Map Pack from Inferno I've got I think 2 maps he never released with it. At least 1, complete and ready to play. My habit of backing up old maps might come in handy (I actually have a couple back ups of old yoyo v2 because of this)

So technically this would be like halo ce's assault gametype but without the flags? I'll try to do this.

Pretty much, one person on the attacking team is the VIP and must be defended. Similar to the H3 gamemode with a tinge of escort mission thrown in.

Also if it can be tied to specific maps as well as the GT that'd be amazing if it's possible.
