    BACKGROUND
    The title of this map could possibly explain everything this map is all about. I'm no Pro Forger nor have I ever made a map on Halo: Reach before. But I invested 60+ hours in making this and I told myself I could be just as good if not, shoulder to shoulder with the people who live to do this. But moving back to topic, this map goes four levels high and has four symmetrical bases. There is almost four of each weapon on this map. This map works with all game-types except Invasion & Race. Completely understandable. And almost every level can be accessed in a short amount of time with the teleporters I placed and the man-canon in the center.

    WEAPONS
    1x Energy Sword
    4x Sniper Rifles (1 Spare Clip)
    4x DMRs
    4x Needlers
    4x Plasma Repeaters
    4x Plasma Pistols
    4x Assault Rifles
    8x Frag Grenades
    8x Plasma Grenades
    8x Health Packs​

    Overview of the map. Great for Team SWAT, Team Snipers, CTF, and Assault.

    The octagonal centerpiece connects all four bases at the third level.

    The man-canon ascends players up to the third level for control of the Energy Sword.

    Narrow hallways on the first level make great passageways for bomb/flag carriers.

    One of the four DMR towers shown here carries a one-way teleporter that can only be accessed from the first level.


    IMPORTANT NOTICE​

    If you were to play team-based games, the only teams that would work would be Red Team, Blue Team, Green Team and Orange Team. Any other team color would automatically be put out of the level and die a PAINFUL death LOL. It was a tough decision, but it had to be made. If you look at maps like Warlock, you will understand why I made this choice. So that's my only limitation. Have fun and enjoy the map.

    The only other criticism about my map is that I feel the first level with the narrow hallways is pretty much unless a Flag/Assault game is being played. I don't see players battling as much on the lower level for Slayer variants.​

    My first reaction to the picture "Hot Damn!". It looks very nice, and unique 4 way symmetrical design. I can't hop on reach tonight, but i'll give it a go tomorrow, looks very promising. Not crazy about 4x sniper rifles, but i'll see about that.

    Id love to DL this map and play it, however your DL link is sending me to my fileshare.

    Doesn't work like that.

    you need to link the map specifically, no ones going to search for it the long way.
    msg me when thats done. I already came and used time here to dl this.

    I'm sorry about that. The download link below the Youtube video will NOW take you directly to my fileshare, but specifically to my map alone. I just registered on ForgeHub.com like yesterday so I'm still new to all of these Forum codes and stuff.
