    This is one of the best (if not only) baseball map in Halo, great to play with 6-10 people, use ghost runners if you have 6 people playing the game on first base if all three people are on base.

    Heres a pic of the whole map

    If you know how to play baseball the rules are simple
    but the things that are different i'll go over

    The pitcher needs to pick up the custom power up right before he goes on the mongoose then he needs to drive to home base (HE is the ball)
    [​IMG]

    Then who ever is up needs to hit the mongoose and the pitcher cant get off until it hits the ground then he can run to him and tag him out (kill him)
    [​IMG]

    to get a home run the hitter needs to hit the mongoose past the wood fence thing ( i forget what it is called)
    [​IMG]

    To be safe at a base you need to pick up the oversheild before anyone kills you

    for the people not pitching and are in the outfield you need to go up one of these man cannons and then go in between those columns (not the middle one) the one farthest from first can throw first out and the one farthest from third can throw third out, second base is up for the pitcher to get, you need to wait until the mongoose hits the ground before you can throw them out
    [​IMG]

    if there are more than 3 people on your team other people can go in these and stick someone but can only throw one sticky every hit(still needs to let the mongoose hit the ground before you can stick them

    [​IMG]

    to score pick up the bomb at third and go to home

    other rules are:
    if you die from the pitcher your out
    if the pitcher dies its a double

    and yep thats my map hope you like it

    wow this is actually a very well thought out idea. Honor rules are huge though. If there was some way to stop the runner from instantly going to 3rd that might improve the map a little. Also if you interlocked the wooden bridges (aka backfield fence) it would make the place look a lot nicer. Another thing you could add is a cage over the batting area. These would make it seem"to be more of a "baseball" field. Overall the idea is very good and I think you should try and expand the idea some more.

    I agree with the person above.
    Awesome idea, no doubt.
    Just kinda confusing for people like me, I hope if you make a V2, you make it look like a giant baseball stadium :D!

    Great idea 5/5
    Map 3/5

    Great Idea

    I think You got an awesome thing here. I think "if I may" if you
    1) set the gravity right
    2)create a barrier to influence a strict pathway to base 1, 2 and 3
    3) place the ball a square block away (blue) northeast of the batters box ..
    You can keep the gamers honest to the sport.

    Its well put together, but needs a few additions. Honor rules are needed, but I guess thats what the Kick From Party button is for.

    Map Posting Rules

    1. Threads must include at least one picture of the map.
    2. All pictures must be embedded.
    3. Download links must lead to a posted map on the bungie forums, NOT your fileshare.
    4. You must include at least a brief description of the map.
    5. Thread titles must consist of the map name ONLY - no other symbols, comments or irregular formatting.
    Failure to post your map correctly will result in a topic lock after 1 hour in the absence of a fix.
    _____________________________________________________________

    I like the idea, and it does have many honor rules.
    Then again, Clue has honor rules and its a very successful game, who knows.
    It could be forged a little better, and have some more aesthetics, but if it plays well and gets the job done then its not needed.
