It's a small map with quite a bit of cover. The game has two modes, each seperate. One is breakout based for short matches, while the other is slayer based and goes towards longer play sessions. But for a more direct answer to "How does it work" would be more along the lines of... Spawn with a lightrifle, no sprint and abilities besides thrust, aka classic halo settings. Battle for a dying star and speed boost, and two twin eyes of meathrillan & barbed lances placed evenly near each team's spawn.
