    Download \\Jet Pack SWAT
    Download //Team Pipes

    Here's a pair of simple Slayer variants that produce a lot of fresh action for just a little bit of customization.

    Jet Pack SWAT is exactly what it sounds like. Sprint is still an option, all I've done is add Jet Pack as an optional loadout. In the right maps, this slight change has a big effect on gameplay.

    Team Pipes is Grenade Launcher Slayer. This includes the Plasma Pistol as a secondary weapon and a choice of 3 loadouts: Sprint, Jet Pack, and Hologram. In the spirit of other weapon-specific gametypes such as Team Snipers and Hammerzeit, Team Pipes spotlights the badassest weapon on Reach.

    I would change the plasma pistol to a regular pistol in team pipes, that way one can effectively use the EMP, employing what I call the 'pro combo'

    Thanks for the suggestion but the idea is to get kills with the grenade launcher ;p

    Looks pretty cool. I might give it a try. What Maps do you recommend for Team Pipes?

    The perfect map would have to be Ghost Town.

    But for maps with 100% less shameless self promotion I recommend anything that optimizes mid-range combat, is not overly cramped, and with a strong but not overly defensible high ground. Something like Power House is ideal.

    This gametype looks really cool. I've downloaded and played this gametype before, but made a couple of aesthetic changes, just to keep it along the lines of the gametypes I promote / like to play. But otherwise, this is a really cool idea and kind of fits along with Dino Blasters from Action Sack, using GR's instead of Concussion Rifles as the Grenade Launcher's Covenant brother weapon, as I call it.
