    Empire

    “A Covenant stronghold, famous for being one of the only spaceports that remain unknown to the UNSC.”

    (2-10 Players)

    Did you guys hear that Sanctuary and Element had a baby?

    My teammate had asked me to make him a map, resembling a sanctuary and element feel of game play. I ripped out the guts of element, leaving its octagonal shell for me to build a sanctuary in. The map is brilliant in the aspect that different game types completely switch up how the map is best played. Even in 1v1’s the map has enough different angles to create interesting battles in every area and forces movement during every choice. With multiple opportunities for lines of sight, Empire’s team play is extremely strategic. It supports MLG Team Slayer, MLG CTF 5, MLG KotH, and MLG Oddball even though it is only recommended for MLG Team Slayer and MLG CTF 5.

    Ahhh, what a cute baby.

    But seriously this is one sick map, the moment I saw the thumbnail I wanted to download it. And seeing all of the other pics only fed that appetite.

    I just able to take a quick walkthrough of your map and I am still scratching my head over what could possibly be wrong with it.

    I hope to get a game going, or perhaps seeing another team duke it out on this map in the Pro Circuit.

    Thanks man, I am too left in that state of scratching my head and trying to find a flaw. I posted this map in such an early phase of testing because i needed a broader group of players to find any flaws in it.

    If i happen to get any pro gameplay of the map I'll be sure to post it. Let me know how any of your battles end up on the map!

    Aha.

    And get rid of the glass bridge. It's going to cause FRL.

    Can't see any huge flaws in the layout right now, but I'm going to bed.
