    I really enjoy Invasion with the large maps and variety of gametypes within a single game I can see some really interesting variants come out in the future. For my first map I decided to keep things simple and copy the default Invasion style of two phases of territories followed by the final phase of capture the flag/data core.

    Notes:
    Not all images are from final version and may have some changes
    There are multiple Spawn points for each Phase make sure to use your d-pad to switch between them
    The Teleporter in Phase 2 only works for the Spartans (Attackers)
    Thanks to all the people at XMG360 and AGErocks for their help with testing and feedback




    Phase 1 - The Satellite - Territories

    The first objective is for the Spartans (Attackers) to Capture the Satellite Communication Relay. They can do so in two ways they can go after the satellites' generator or the satellite controls. The Satellite Generator is easier to access being on ground level and is farther away from the Elites (Defenders) spawn but has less cover and is harder to defend while capturing. The Satellite Controls are directly below the dish and can be covered from the Attackers hill but is a short walk from the Defenders spawn.

    Attackers Loadouts
    Sprint - Assault Rifle - Magnum
    Hologram - Assault Rifle - Magnum
    Defenders Loadouts
    Evade - Plasma Rifle - Plasma Pistol
    Drop Shield - Needler - Plasma Pistol
    Weapons
    DMR x3
    Sniper Rifle - 1 Spare Clip - Respawn 90
    Rocket Launcher - 0 Spare Clip - Respawn 90
    Needle Rifle x3

    Shade Turret - Respawn 90
    Vehicles
    Mongoose x2



    Phase 2 - The Bridge - Territories

    Once the satellite is captured the Spartans must make their way across The Bridge. In order to hold the bridge the Spartans must secure either the Helipad or the Lower Walkways. The Helipad provides excellent cover to defend yourself while being just around the corner from the Defenders spawn. The Walkways are much closer to the Attackers spawn but has no cover besides the elevation change. There is also a teleporter that can be used to cross the canyon its a bit of a longer walk but will come out directly behind the defenders sniper tower.

    Attackers Loadouts
    Sprint - DMR - Magnum
    Jetpack - Assault Rifle - Magnum
    Hologram - DMR - Assault Rifle
    Defenders Loadouts
    Evade - Needle Rifle - Plasma Pistol
    Jetpack - Concussion Rifle - Plasma Rifle
    Drop Shield - Needle Rifle - Plasma Rifle

    Fuel Rod Cannon - Respawn 90
    Focus Rifle - Respawn 90
    Vehicles
    Mongoose



    Phase 3 - Power Station - Capture the Flag

    [​IMG]


    The last objective is for the Spartans to infiltrate the Power Station and retrieve the Data Core to the extraction point. There are three entry points from the front of the building one of which is only assessable through a jetpack, another dumps you right in the middle of the main room where the data core is, the last path is on the far left and is a bit of a scenic route but is also the stealthiest. Once you have the Data Core you can take the direct route of going out the main door and heading straight across the open field to the extration point or can take the longer route while using the rock wall as cover as well as being closer to spawn for support.

    Attackers Loadouts
    Sprint - DMR - Magnum
    Armor Lock - Shotgun - Magnum
    Hologram - DMR - Assault Rifle
    Drop Shield - DMR - Assault Rifle
    Jetpack - Grenade Launcher - Assault Rifle

    Weapons
    Sniper Rifle - Respawn 90
    Spartan Laser - Respawn 60
    Focus Rifle - Respawn 90
    Plasma Launcher - Respawn 90

    ****ing amazing. Love how all the structures are unique. You could've just built a bridge and base but you really took it to the next level.

    This deserves the bump it got.
