    Story:
    Prologue:
    “Will these things work?” the Commissioner of Human Housing Systems asked the Architect.
    “It’s fairly simple.” the Architect replied. The two men were discussing the newest design of housing on the planet Fleur-De-Lis. The new city being built was going to require a way to “Fold Down” houses or buildings that were not in use. This would save space for building things such as other buildings or skyscrapers, and not damage the houses or buildings near it.
    “What about this building here.” the Commissioner asked, pointing to a small “Foldout” near the city area.
    “The UNSC has asked to have Foldout 2b-8h4 as a Military Police station, just in case anything were to happen.” The Architect answered, obviously tired of the questions being asked.
    “All right Anders, you’ve made your point. You can ship the Foldouts here from Earth As Soon As Possible.”
    UNSC Defense Frigate 12-90a6b, “The Coming Dawn”
    “Come ‘on McIntyre, move your ass.” Srg. First Class Eugene Potter ordered. Pvt. McIntyre began running into the video room as fast as he could, but slipped at the door. “Let’s go Klutz.”
    Pvt. McIntyre sat down next to his friend Pvt. Peirce, but everyone called him Hawkeye, for his ability as a sniper in their ODST squad. “Nice slip.” said Hawkeye.
    “Shut the hell up.” McIntyre responded.
    “Gentlemen and I use that term lightly.” Srg. Potter said. “You know what has happened. Fleur-De-Lis has been attacked by the Covenant. As terrible as this is, we have a worse problem on our hands. Spartan 308-Trapper is trapped down there.”
    “How ironic.” Hawkeye said.
    “You haven’t heard the worst, Hawkeye.” Srg. Potter said. “Not only is it a Spartan, but he is an Intelligence Spartan.”
    “An Intelligence Spartan, sir?” Pvt. First Class Andrew Lower asked.
    “An Intelligence Spartan was and is a Spartan, whose MJONLER armor has been modified to hold more files and intelligence. Now don’t thing he’s not equally as bad-ass, just a bit more important.”
    “What’s the plan?” McIntyre asked.
    “Simple, drop in the city, get the Spartan, fallback with the Spartan, get the hell out.”
    Fleur-De-Lis Surface, Journal kept my Pvt. McIntyre
    We have found our Spartan, and were pulling back. We found the Spartan fighting of a hell’ota Covenant, with his magnum sidearm. Right now we found what looks like a Military Police station, except it doesn’t look like anyone that I’ve seen before. I’ve been told by Srg. Potter that these buildings “Foldout” of the ground. We are setting up turrets right now, wow this Spartan is strong. I think that this will be our final holdout; I hope that we accomplish our mission.
    NOW IT’S YOUR CHOICE. WILL THE ODST’S ACCOMPLISH THEIR MISSION, OR AS THE COVENANT WILL YOU CRUSH THE PATHETIC HUMANS, AND GLASS THE PLANET KNOWN AS FLEUR-DE-LIS

    This is my second real post on Forgehub, and after my..."Rust" map, I have learned a lot, and I hope this map proves your childish insults wrong. This map is setup like Firefight from Halo 3 ODST with a mix of Asset in it.(OK It is ALOT like Asset, but ALOT like Firefight at the same time.) Now, there are "Waves" when you spawn, and the higher the wave, the better the weapons. The waves are:
    Wave 1-Soldier
    Wave 2- Close Quarters
    Wave 3- Heavy

    I'll explain the positives and negatives of both sides:
    COVENENT
    [​IMG]
    The Covenents goal is simple: Kill the VIP/Asset. When you spawn, you will spawn in a ship and you must drop down form your ship.
    [​IMG]
    To your left is the weapon spawns, which is where the waves come in. The Covenent waves are:
    Soldier- Plasma Rifles and Needlers
    [​IMG]
    Close Quarters- Energy Swords and a few Ghosts

    Heavy- Fule Rods, more Ghosts, and two Wraiths
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    If you do manage to kill the VIP/Asset, congats, switch sides so you become the
    ODST
    Your goal is the opposite, protect the VIP/Asset.
    [​IMG]
    You spawn in the Foldout.
    [​IMG]
    The ODST's waves are:
    Soldier- You just use your defult Battle Rifles and SMGs to defend the VIP/Asset
    Close Quarters- Shotguns and a Warthog spawn
    [​IMG]
    Heavy- Rocket Launchers
    [​IMG]
    Here are some battle pictures:

    I hope you enjoy the map. Here are the Downloads:

    but before i have to go.

    1. don't make the font black. its to hard to read.
    2. You didnt do something right with the pictures. dont ask for specifics lol. we have guides on the website that show you how to properly embed images.
    3. you also didnt embed the video correctly.
    4. you need at least 1 overview picture of the map, unless thats what the cideo was.

    k gotta go. ill edit this tommorow.

    -Is there any map progression between waves or is it only weapon additions?
    -Are there any accurate scoped weapons for the attackers( ie: carbine and beam rifle)
    -you spelled Covenant wrong.

    Hey

    Is there any way you could make your pictures bigger and in higher quality as its kind of hard to see whats in some of them

    And make your text a different colour otherwise no-one will download it as they cant be bothered to try and read all of the text...

    Cool idea though

    Yea, I used a capture card to save my pictures as a video file, but the file was a avi, so I converted it, and the pictures shrunk, I'll fix it today

    I like the design but overall the map looks very sloppy. Try to straighten some of those walls like at the spawn, where the ghosts and swords are, out and try to use some more geomerging. Could you make a V2?

    EDIT: Cool story ^^
