    Okay, i just had i pretty decent idea for a map in my opinion and i wanted to see if any of you think it would be any fun. First off i have to say, Guardian is my favorite halo 3 map so i got some ideas from it. heres what i made on foundry designer.

    this would be the first floor.

    and the second.

    I would cover the second floor with bridges for a ceiling. And the bridges shown in the pictures are ramps from floor to floor, not flat. And all of the boxes are just for walls.

    This is the basic idea of my map. it would be for 1v1 games, and i guess 3 for all if you really wanted to. i think it would be a great and fun map. but i want some more opinions first. anything i should add or change? i have plenty of boxes left and almost all of my corner walls. please, any help would be appreciated.

    this looks like a great idea. Make sure you can still block it off so people can't get out. Also, you will need to think out the weapon set very well as that can posssibly make or break this map.

    Battle rifles and carbines, along with SMG, brute spikers, plasma rifles, plasma pistol but dont underestimate the power of dual wielding weapons. a needler or two (depending on how open, it could be a power weapon.) And i recommend brute shot and mauler as the power weapons. also, some assault rifle ammo.

    haha, no im just giving you the range of weapons to use, i would never use all of them either. equipment wise is tough. I would say go with a power drain with a longer respawn.

    Id have 2 BRs on each floor, either 1 plasma and frag on each floor or 2 plasmas on one and 2 frags on the other, and probably a mauler with no extra clips (5 shots).

    For equipment, Id go with a Bubble Sheild, seeing as a Regen or Power Drain can be too powerful in a 1v1, and would be considered a power weapon. With a Bubble Sheild, its not an instant kill like a power drain or a sheild saver like a regen, but it can be still used by even the player who didnt use it.

    okay, in case the foundry designer hurt your eyes, here are some plain pics to show you the floor shape and area design.

    this is the bottom floor, and the blue dot is a grav lift and the yellow bars are bridges leading up.

    and the second floor. the white holes are drops to the first floor.
