    This is a project that I am co-forging with coyote1023, a conquest veteran.

    BT(Big Team) Conquest is meant for large scale games of conquest. The major change is the involvement of vehicles. Even though the territories still touch one another, this won't play like any average conquest map you've seen yet.

    Coolant Fields takes place on avalanche, and will consist of all the areas covered by snow. Everything is color coded.. that was the first thing I made sure of when we started this map. There will not be any air vehicles; we are trying to minimize players bypassing territories and ruining the flow of conquest.

    Here's some teaser pictures..

    Big teams are recommended

    oh em gee

    Custom powerup makes you a spartan/juggernaut/hulk/a ****ing superman

    Red side spawn. Both sides will look different but consist of the same weapon load out


    Testing has only begun last week, and there has already been some major changes such as replacing the tank with a wraith.

    Expect to see this released in the near future.

    Aww no more regular tank, but i was uber plus 20 every game with the tank lawlz anyway. I have to say i love this map and game, it is so much fun a constant flow of moment. And i love how we seem to be fighting at the end over the 3 and 6 th territory instead of the middle one haha.

    Man this game was awesome, but you should mention that people have a waypoint over their head to show that there is almost no way to bypass territories.

    The only thing I have to complain about is you getting rid of the one mongoose, it was part of the family and you got rid of it :( Just to make sure you did get rid of it right? Or did you add it back? BTW, good map!

    I got rid of 1 of them, I might get rid of another though and only leave 1. I still want to keep rocket goosin' tactics.

    Yay, I'm the Elite gunning for the Warthog in the second image!

    One problem though was that many of the awesomely forged structures seemed to lack an incentive to defend them. Also, this map was overrun by vehicles. Not that anything is necessarily wrong with that as I do spend the majority of my time around vehicles in Halo, but I don't know if that's what you were going for. If you do want some proper infantry, build some **** that supports it and add some more power weapons and stuff, but still balance out the infantry with the vehicles somehow.

    I'm trying to put as much emphasis on vehicle combat as possible, while keep infantry. I personally enjoy being the infantry; specifically the spartan, and I know there are people who love staying back with a sniper and holding people off from a distance.

    Hmm wonder who that could be =) but yeah this map is made just for vehicles while still allowing the foot troops to support certain territories. Such as 5 6 and 7. The 2 sniper towers are a key part of the map. It's a good way to stop warthogs and mongoose in their tracks. Only thing that screws up a spartan or sniper is a tank.

    Heavy Map FTW You all make it sound like an epic map, and it looks like it so ill go with it. I also like the custom powerup, allowing a non vehicle guy.

    Well spartan can ride on a hog or mongoose but can not operate turret or drive. Still a loaded down hog with a rocket spartan is kick ass. Tanks dont stand a chance haha.

    This game really takes team coordination. The Spartan thing was just genius. I'm glad the tank was removed. It was too overpowered for the team who got the first shot on the enemies tank. There were never both tanks on the battlefield at once. I think the wraiths really even it out to make it more fair on the losing team.
    My favourite part of this map is probably sniping. It's so awesome standing in the middle sniping. And stealing the other teams sniper is just so fun.
    I <3 the BeeAre starts too!

    I just love this new style of conquest.

    The game itself is fun with the vehicular combat, spartans and the chopper shortcut. The only thing to settle now is if you are going to put the ghosts in. Needz moar moongooses.
