    Snow Citadel:

    Some say that before the humans took the ice mountain there was a Forerunner Citadel under the snow...

    Description:
    This is a avalanche map that is cut in half ie. it does not use all of the normal avalanche. It includes 2 bases, one which is ready made from the normal base, and a new castle type base directly opposite it. The two bases are fair as one is easyer to defend but there are more ways in, and the other has more veichles but harder to defend. Base 1 (the castle type base, see pics below) has 2 monguesse, 1 warthog and a hornet. Base 2 (the normal base) has 2 monguesse, 1 warthog, 1 hornet, 1 prowler and 1 wraith. This map is made for the bombs away gametype, a version of neutral bomb, in which the bomb starts in the middle of the map on a large "T" shaped structure. This means both teams have to take the hornets to get up there fast (there are also man cannons on the bottom of the "T")

    Pictures:

    Overview (here you can see the "T" shaped structure) :

    The weapons on the map a balanced as the only power weapon (the spartan laser) is ontop of the "T" structure in the middle of the map. I hope you enjoy my map and please feel free to leave any freedback, good or bad.

    Looks good and sounds like great gameplay but it looks pretty easy to escape from , i wouldnt do that but some people who DL maps are sad enough to try and do this. An example of this would be the Grifball Court in the First Grifball Double Exp Weekend how people took the bomb so it would end up as a draw.

    If i still had my xbox i would DL but my parents took it away from me >_<

    So you make a barrier out of jumping distance but then put flying vehicles on the map. WTF. Did you think at all there?

    Looks good. I'll probably DL it soon.

    I don't think that matters too much. There's nothing else he could've done to fix that.

    Also, next time take your screenshots in a custom game. You don't see the spawn points and other forge stuff making the screenshots neater and better looking.

    Wow, looks really good and fun to play on. I still think you should go back and block off the entrance to the other side.

    ya it kinda sucks that theres pretty much no way to block off any part of Avalanch to make a decent map with flying vehicles. I was going to try an Ascenion remake but then relized no way i could block the banshee from getting out of the map...

    Wow, looks totally amazing. I really like how you have used only one portion of avalanche. The way you used the ramps as wall was pretty creative as well. Nice job.

    This map looks very nize =) Your post, on the other hand, does not! Your pictures are a little blurry so I suggest you embed using photobucket. Also, don't take your pictures on forge mode, those spawn points look FUGLY =( Very well made and creative map, but your post is lacking...
