    While playing with some friends the other night....we did some searches for "ship" maps....we found a couple of good ones....but alot that was....well, lacking....

    Thus, Harbour Battle!

    The Harbor is Host to 4 ships:

    The "Red Ship" is a Catamaran style Light Destroyer:

    She's Equipped with a deck mounted Scorpion class Artillery Cannon, a Banshee and a Falcon among other weapons in the Armory.....

    The "Blue Ship" is a Medium Cruiser:

    Also Equipped with a Scorpion deck gun, she has a hidden Banshee launch deck in her bow.

    The "Green Ship" is a Heavy Battle Carrier:

    The Most Heavily Armoured of the Group, she has an undermount Scorpion Cannon, a Top Deck Wraith Mortar Gun, a pair of Falcons and 3 Banshees......as well as a sizable interior:

    The "Orange Ship" is a landing craft:

    While She lacks deck guns, she does have a pair of Stern Mounted Shade Turrets in addition to a bevy of landing craft that can attack the other ships from the island:

    Not that the ships don't fire on each other....

    Looks nice. I like how you used the scorpions as stationary turrets :)

    Dude....whatever.....

    First, I never set out to create an authentic 20th century style vessel....it's HALO, set in 2552.....so I don't want the boats to look like today's boats...

    Second, the idea here isn't ship-like realism, it's platforms from which to do battle....and for that purpose these work nicely.

    Third, thanks for rating me according to your standards....but, from the pic, I think yer boat looks like crap...opinions are like, well...you know....everyone has one and it's usually unpleasant when it speaks....

    Good luck in your forging!

    Avolanty, stop being arrogant. You're better than noone.

    Now, on to the map.

    I personally would reccommend posting this in the Testers Guild before releasing it so that you can fix any possible gameplay problems with the map. The pictures that you have wouldn't exactly make me want to play on the map, but judging a map before you play it is stupid and ignorant. I hope to see it in the TG, or if you don't do that, I hope to see it in the Custom Content Section soon.

    I apologize I'm not giving constructive criticism, like I should. Your map still does need work and I probably wouldn't play it in the condition and style it has now, but maybe you can prove me wrong in the future. I apologize for being a **** earlier and I will think more carefully in my posts thankyou stickmanmeyhem
