Ideas for a Halo Wars (possibly esque) map

Well for one of my final map rushes before reach comes out, I am going to be making a few maps for a gametype, Halo Wars. THis is not to be confused with the halo wars made by that one guy (dunno his GT) where there are two rebels, this one is full fledged side vs side games. Human Vs. Covie Elites, Covie Elite Vs Covie brute, Human vs Human, and Human vs flood. The three maps will be:

Avalanche: 1 map, Human vs. Flood.

Sandtrap: 1 map, Human vs Human

Sandbox: 2 maps, covie elites vs covie brutes,human vs covie elites (possibly human v flood)

Here is what I know about halo wars so far.

1. Maps are usually open and wide, with plenty of room to move around in
2. Generally have enough cover to ensure survival under heavy fire, but the cover is mostly map geometry
3. Loadouts are the same for humans but are very specific for covenant factions.
4. Vehicles. Lots and lots of vehicles.
5. Beautiful map settings with geometry not only providing a nice view but adding some cover to an otherwise open map.
6. Troop traits can vary depending on what unit you are using.
7. All teams have a special and super unit.
8. Territory based, need to take bases to survive
9. Garrisonale cover for snipers
10. Big teams, epic battles. 6v6 to 8v8 only, otherwise its just boring.

There you have it. Any ideas on unit weapons or gametype suggestions are welcome. I dont have the maps completely started so I am open to any map geometry suggesstions (especially for sandtrap, that one's a doozy)

Thank you and look foward to my biggest project after this. What is it, well thats a secret but it is fekkin epic and full of win! ;D
