    Foundation (a) with original Halo 2 weapons spawns - http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=19860124&viewreplies=true
    Foundation (b) with updated weapons, equipment, etc. - http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=19860107&viewreplies=true

    I know many people have done this but since Foundation was my favourite map, I thought I'd take a shot at making it. Everyone I've showed it to has liked it and I hope you will to.

    Now you may be wondering "what's the difference between the two maps?"
    I'll tell you.

    In each base -
    Foundation (a) - 2 frags & 1 Smg
    Foundation (b) - 2 Frags & 1 BR

    Turret Area 1 -
    Foundation (a) - 1 Machine Gun & 1 Rocket
    Foundation (b) - 1 Plasma Cannon, 1 Needler & 1 Power Drain

    Turret Area 2 -
    Foundation (a) - 1 Machine Gun & 1 Rocket
    Foundation (b) - 1 Flamethrower, 1 Needler & 1 Bubble Sheild

    BR/Fusion Coil 1 -
    Foundation (a) - 3 Fusion Coils, 3 Plasmas, 1 BR
    Foundation (b) - 2 Fusion Coils, 2 Plasma Grenades, 1 Sniper

    BR/Fusion Coil 2 -
    Foundation (a) - 2 Fusion Coils, 3 Frags, 1 BR
    Foundation (b) - 2 Fusion Coils, 2 Plasma Grenades, 1 Sniper

    Stairs (Both sides) -
    Foundation (a) - 1 Shotgun, 2 Magnums & 2 Needlers
    Foundation (b) - 1 Carbine, 2 Spike Grenades & 2 Spikers

    Middle Area -
    Foundation (a) - 4 Fusion Coils, 1 Sword, 4 Plasma Grenades
    Foundation (b) - 4 Fusion Coils, 1 Oversheild, 2 Plasma Grenades & 2 Plasma Rifles

    There is also a Ghost and a Warthog on both maps.

    Pics, all of Foundation(a) unless it says otherwise, (because there's no change in scenery, only weapons, which I have described above)

    Unforntuneately this is only set up for Slayer, KOTH & Oddball.
    But its not the kind of map for Non-FFA Gametypes anyway.


    I reccommend Slayer, Random Weapons, with extra points for medals.

    Thanks for Looking, critisism is welcome and Complements are valued

    Looks pretty clean and accurate. Looks like you did a nice job interlocking and other stuff.

    Maybe the center structure should be a little bigger, I think I remember it being so in H2. And I don't remember if the original had a warthog, did you just put that it or was it from H2?

    Whya Flame thrower?
    And there are many remakes of the map. And all dont really capture it perfectly because Fundry is such a small map to make Foundation on. It was a nice attempt though.

    That looks really cool. Great interlocking and a new weapon set is a sure download for me. I can't wait to play.

    I considered making the middle area bigger, but the only way I thought about making it other than the final product was how the featured foundation did it.
    Also about the vehicles, it wasn't a default setting in Halo 2 but you were able to set vehicles.
    The bases are as big as they can be.
    About the weapon scheme. If your complaining about the flamethrower, then it means you didn't read the information saying that I had made 2 Foundations. One that was true to the original weapon spawns and one with changed weapons to include the new features in Halo 3.

    good job but i have see to many of this map... why dont you try to change it up? make a map similarbut change the middle and call it your own just influenced by foundation. bring a new feel to it and give it a new type of gameplay. i donno. just an idea to try to help. 4/5 tho. good job

    Good idea, but I'm not sure if I can be bothered. Although, I could make one similar to foundation and make it an MLG map. They are super simmetrical and super clean.

    i was there when linubidix was making this map, it plays as close to what foundry can make it play. the middle structure has been resized to fit the rest of the map. i remember linubidix telling me that while he was making it.
