    The map looks fantastic, can't wait to play on it.

    When can we expect the race variant?

    Aaaand here comes DireWolf with Reason #85 that, even with all the amazing maps out there, he's still my favorite Halo 5 Forger.

    Seriously, this is another map that I tried to make... in Halo 4. I got the Great Hall and just about nothing else- although I did have a couple of Easter eggs. A (frozen) moving staircase, a cupboard under the stairs, the Room of Requirement, and the mirror of Erised... it was useless for all but the most casual nonsense, and I loved it. This, though... this takes it, once again, to a whole new level!

    Haha thanks man! I really wanted to add so much more stuff like the room of requirement and dumbledoors eagle staircase but alas i ran out of items even with my best efforts of being conservative. Hope you enjoy playing on it!

    Maaaaaan cone structures would be AMAZING to have. i hated having to use the ramps, but i couldnt think of anything else to form a nice cone shape with minimal blocks.

    Also wish i could make the pendulum in the clock tower run more smoothly than using clunky scripted timers... do you think Mr. French can fix that too? haha jk ;)

    All the scripted stuff bugged out for me. The pendulum tries to wreaking-ball the wall, and the staircases plain seizure out.
    Having finally got the chance to play the map, I wasn't disappointed in the least. It's the type of map I always enjoy the most- not necessarily the most polished, but enjoyable and not afraid to just be fun. In my opinion, there are far too few maps these days that aren't scared to death of being enjoyable. Keep up the great work... and I'll say it again here, I would love to see Riften or Markarth in Halo. Just sayin'.
