    Re: A Huge Covenant Cannon that actually works!

    Thanks for all the comments. One of the main problems we faced was in the construction of the barrel of the cannon.

    1. Conjoining the two open boxes that made up the end of the barrel so that there were no
    edges that you could get caught on.
    2. Placing the mancannons precisely in the right place so that you would be able to achieve
    maximum height and distance without hitting the invisible barrier above.
    1. Aligning the bridges that made up the shaft of the barrel so that they were identical in
    height to the opening of the double boxes that made up the end of the cannon.

    Thank you again for all your great comments.

    this is completely worth downloading. most fun I've had on a forge map in a while, especially shooting mongooses with the spartan laser as they fly out of the cannon.

    They've got a good idea.

    First, nice recreation.

    Second, if you haven't, make large groups, if possible boxes of explosives to push instead of just vehicles.

    Plus, if the 'destruction spot' was made, maybe shielding around it to protect it from anything but a well placed grenade would be cool, plus the explosion itself would make an awesome video.

    I played with it a bit today, and at the top, it didn't really work for me. When the barrel connected to the bottom of the cannon, where it changes direction, things kept getting stuck.

    As the sky settled, the commander shouted the fateful words... "PULL!!!"
    That's exactly what you gotta yell shouting a mongoose with a laser when it comes flying out :p
