    The Hollow
    Created by Urban Myth

    Recommended Players: 4-10
    Recommended Gametypes: Conquest

    I believe that officially qualifies as an understatement, sir. For what you've done is nothing short of magnificent.

    For those of you who have yet to have the pleasure of rockin' out in the Crypt's rooftop, Conquest style, I suggest you skip all this mumbo jumbo and just hit the link down below. Its worth it. My feelings won't be hurt...much. For those lookin for a bit more substance, TO HEL-

    Ok ok... Here goes ya greedy lil buggers. With the discovery of the new Ghost Merge glitch, comes a wealth of new possibilities with effectively a fraction of the effort. Urban Myth shows just how far down the rabbit hole goes, as he bends Sandbox's crypt to his every will. The end result? A very 'natural' environment, in every sense of the word. Varying rock formations and an eerie cave-like atmosphere provide us with a map fit to inspire forgers both new and seasoned. I believe I speak for everyone at Forge Hub when I say thanks for the map, Urban.

    Wow thanks for the feature guys! I hope that even more creative maps come out since ghost merging's discovery. I wasn't expecting this but I can definetely say that this has been my most succesful map to date and I want to thank you all for the support. Also, please fight for CIM(conquest in matchmaking). For all of the conquest lovers out there, please take this into consideration.

    FINALLY! I LOVE THIS MAP. I DL already and have played 10 plus games on it. This really deserved a feature. Congrats Urban. Hopefully another map of yours can be featured so we have a new premium. Congrats :)

    It was only a matter of time. When I first saw this in the forums I was very impressed and then after playing it I was even more impressed. Sure the no-clip glitch played a big role in this maps forging process but that's not to say that creating this map was an easy feat. This cave-like map is still smooth and complements the conquest gametype quite well. Congrats Urban.

    Congrats Urban! The Hollows is now a staple at all my Conquest Customs (and for good reason). I have always loved this style of map and it only makes it better that it is for Conquest. Well you've already heard my words of praise several times. How about a picture instead?

    It really is a good map and really does have a different feel to it. I remember the day this map came out, lol I must have played it at least 20 times. Aestheticly wise its a 10, cant say the same about gameplay but overall i give it a 9.

    I saw this featured on XForgery also. Wow, you reall yimpresed the Halo community with this map man. I have to say bravo! I plan to build an infection map similar to the hollow but with different lenghts and on a extremely large scale. Congratualaions, and go kick some forge ass with a follow up conwuest map. Maybe an industrial the hollow, on foundry roof?

    I saw this map a while ago and it awed me. I think that this map truely deserves a feature because of its new use of geometry and the way it all adds up to look like a cave. Personally, it couldn't have been done any better than it already is. Congrats! I wish I could have downloaded but I cant because I have too many maps. =(

    I had a feeling this map would be featured when I first saw it. The map is one of the most original conquest maps out there right now and it it certainly deserving of this feature. Congrats Urban Myth.

    Congrats on a well-deserved feature, Urban.
    This is by far, in my opinion, the best looking Conquest map in ages.

    Awesome write-up, LIGHTS. I wish I could write like that.

    I have seen so many cave maps like this, it's not even funny. This is by far the best one that I've ever seen. It's hard for me to like a conquest map but this does it. THis map really deserves the feature and I'm happy to see it here.
