Its taken a year and a month of making and tweaking and getting it just right.
So here is Storm Gauge:



So the way the map works:
Phase 1: Beach Assault

UNSC: Spawn as marines and ODST's and select your weapons. When your ready, press the deployment button and step through the teleport into hell. The teleport will spawn you either as an ODST at a drop pod or as a marine in the pelicans. Move your way through and destroy that Anti air wraith to clear the skies. Watch out for heavy hostile activity and heavy hostile ordnance.

Covie: Spawn in and quickly grab any weapons you can scavenge and protect the Anti Air Wraith. You'll have help with the use of a wraith and shade turrets. You are the last defense for that beach front, you only have one chance to protect that area, once your dead you'll spawn in the next zone to defend.

Phase 2: Anti Air Wraith 2

The next part of the map will unlock opening it up to the Forerunner tower which is in the hands of the Covenant. On the tower platform will be an Anti Air Wraith.

UNSC: Grab any weapons you can find, the more powerful the better, you'll need them! Move up to the next area following the blue flares someone kindly dropped down for you. Once you've fought your way through all of the Covie forces, destroy the Anti Air Wraith. Make the skies clear for our marines. Be aware that waves of Covie forces will keep on coming.

Covenant: Select your class. You automatically spawn as a Grunt.
You have 5 class choices:
Grunt: 1 Fuel rod up for grabs, Sticky grenades, Needlers, Plasma pistols. (Slow and weak)
Jackal: 1 Beam rifle up for grabs, Carbines (Fast but weak)
Elite Soldier: Plasma Repeater, Plasma Rifle, Sticky Grenades (Strong but slow)
Elite Leader: Energy Sword, Red Plasma Rifle (Strong but slow but has invisibility)
Hunter: Hunter canon (Very strong but very slow)

Each time you die you reset to a grunt and can select a new class. to get the health and speed changes, pick up the power up in the bay, please look first as there are only 2 Hunters and 2 Elite Leaders at any one time. The rest spawn relatively quickly.
(Please try and keep to the class you choose)

Once you've selected your class, defend that anti air wraith. Its the last defense to keep the UNSC out of the skies. You failed last time, dont fail this time.

Phase 3: Assault the Tower

Unfortunately for the covenant, they better get a move on. The button is almost next to the Anti Air Wraith, so no time hanging around, the only thing stopping the UNSC from turning off the power to this tower is an energy shield.

UNSC: You're almost there soldiers. on your way up to the Anti Air Wraith level you may have noticed an energy shield. Go back and give it everything you've got. Once its down, turn off the power with the control panel behind the shield. Be careful as we've probably made the Covenant fairly angry and they'll be coming with an awful lot of force. Turn off the power and we gain control. Game over.

Covenant: Defend the tower. Grab a class and run! Give them everything you have and defend that tower. They have limited fire power but the only thing stopping them from winning is you and an energy shield. Use all the firepower and ordnance given to you. You should have Wraiths and Ghosts left to defend the surrounding area. If they press the button, game over, they win!

So that's how the game mode and map plays. As you move through the map you'll have way points come up to show you what the objective is.
This is still a work in progress so both the map and game mode are still being tweaked.
As i said before, if you're the covenant, please try and stick to your class, its not much fun when hunters have beam rifles.. unfortunately i cant restrict this in the game.
Due to the game being the way it is, i cant make you spawn with no ammo or gun, therefore everyone spawns with a magnum and thats it. If you spawn straight into the map (Covies first phase) please pick up a weapon that is near you (should be plenty) and if you spawn in a loadout room, please pick some weapons that are offered.

I will be running tests on this map so if youd like to join in, please add me on xbox and send me a quick message saying something like Storm, so i know why, ill be running some test lobbies soon as i have another map that runs this game mode that i almost have finished. GT: SlashedTortoise
