    -Axiom-

    The tumult of battles between the Didactian and Librarian forces reached it's climax at this still warring beacon. Relics of the battle are style emblazoned in it's very walls.

    New co forge between me and Kavemanr.
    Supports Slayer, Flag, KoTH, Oddball, Regicide.

    The Aesthetics are beautiful, reminds me a lot of Epitaph from Halo 3, which was one of my favourite maps. Very, very well put together aesthetics, definitely feels forrunner. How are the sightlines though? The screenshots make it appear to be fairly long and narrow, with hallways offering fairly long lines of sight... The middle on the other hand almost looks a bit cluttered... Then again, I guess that's offering long and shot sightlines, so never mind. Looks very well done and very well forged.

    Thanks heaps. The aesthetics were one of the main focuses of this map. There was inspiration from Epitaph, as well as from Citadel, Construct and the level The Covenant from halo 3.
    There is no issue with the sight lines from testing, as they are broken up LoS breakers.

    For some reason the pictures make me feel like it is like narrows and epitaph combined, but I'm pretty sure it isnt actually anything like narrows.

    Cheers man.

    Actually Narrows did have some part in our inspiration but I think it ended up being lost among the ton of forerunner stuff we looked at. The inspiration from Epitaph is evident in the central platform and aesthetics.

    What worries me from the pictures is how linear the map appears, with long los as well. What I'm also worried about is that doesn't seem to be alot of height variety. But i will dl it and hopefully prove myself wrong.

    Impressive. I would very much like to play on this map in the future.

    Has a very forerunner-y look to it.

    Long LoS isnt necessarily a bad thing as long as there are is sufficient cover to be able to avoid it. In a map with 2 levels, raised sides and bases, a central floating platform and some grav lifts, there isnt enough height variation? You will be proved wrong.

    Thanks man. And forerunner was what we were going for.
