    Hey, I am currently trying to make the something close to a barracks from Halo Wars on Halo 3. For some of you people who have no idea what to forge making structures from Halo Wars could be a idea.

    The front of what is going to be the BARRACKS.

    The side of the barracks.

    The other side of the barracks with the bridge supporting forging thingy that helps me forge.

    I hope you guys will make some structures and if you are GOOOD luck.

    Umm...this honestly...really...

    Sorry about that, but really, this seems...well...uhh...basic?
    It's really just some walls put up against some boxes. Try making the elephant with the Turret, the buildings are easy to construct

    First of all the pictures above are the pictures of a draft and I chose to make it since it was basic because I am not the BEST forger around.

    Hmmmm even for a rough draft I think it could use some more details... Here is what I think you should do.
    1) Make it smaller, this barracks is HUGE!
    2) Put specific weapons in certain areas. Make it so it cannot be accesed when you leave.
    3) Interlock if necessary and allign everything. It will result in a neater barracks.

    Must be your first post..hmm..if you really want a great map or something good just for friends I usually just use the google Scetch-Up along with the Foundry components. Once you get the hang of designing maps on there it can be a breeze when you go onto forge. The idea you have is really good, but what you have is missing some key things a map must have. Asthetics, balanced weapons, well placed spawn points, and more cover. So far you're on the right track, just add maybe some interlocking to give the map some spice.

    If you do not know how to interlock, or do not have google scetch-up then here are the links to both.

    So...you're trying to make ONE of the buildings from halo wars? Make one of the bases, one building isn't that impressive. And you've already used up most of the available foundry space, I would suggest shrinking it, maybe to about the size of a double box per building. Stacking walls against boxes is neither a recognizable structure nor a complete map.

    this honestly is kinda waste of time i guess.there cant be any gameplay on it, and it seems kinda easy to forge since your just trying to lay walls agianst a db

    To be honest, Halo Wars cannot be remade for halo 3. The main reason is that you wouldn't have enough people to make it seem even close to halo wars. The only place you could possible attempt this on is Sandbox, for the space it requires for a halfway big battlefield.

    I wanted to change the size so it could be like a ACTUALLY building plus I wanted this map for a infection gametype. I am also thinking of the gametype called "The Flood" since you are defending a barracks with few men coming back and your other squads died or either got infected from the flood. I also have no idea if the barracks on Halo Wars was a tent or a building and Just thought it was a shrunken building so it could fit with the base and all so the size thing kinda got me cunfused. This base was also supposed to be like a base with one building like the one padded bases on a few of the multiplayer maps. I also made it big since I though of puting some shooting ranges and A LOT of armories and all plus I might make some switches which I am not completly sure if I should make one. I really didn't know what a barracks would look inside. Oh yes and I am not really sure what Asthetics are so could someone explain what Asthetics are? I tried google sketch objects and all but it's so confusing to turn the objects that correct way you want to so if anybody knows a tutorial or instructions to help me turn them correctly that would be great!

    Sorry to change the topic has anybody made the first Covenant transport, and can you transport your units on Halo Wars with the FIRST Covenant transport?(I forgot what the transport was called.)
