    Hello, first map in a wee while, and a twist on one of my older maps.

    The UNSC Crawler was developed due to heavy losses suffered when attacking Covenant ground installations such as AA turrets and shield generators. The Crawler is deployed over the horizon from the hanger of a converted frigate, then driven in under the radar.

    It boasts an impressive array of offensive weaponry, mounted high up to shoot over obstacles while the crawler is protected:

    Once close enough, the Crawler can launch a squad of marines in warthogs:

    And protect them with an escort of hornets:

    When the mission is over, the warthogs can be retrieved with the lift:

    The Crawler can tackle any terrain with its massive wheels and suspension:

    and protect itself from boarders:

    From the vehicle deck, a stairway takes you to the hangar level:

    And onto the bridge:

    Above the bridge is the crew quarters:

    Sick bay:

    And escape hatch:

    The vehicle is stopped on a slope, the decks are slightly slanted:

    The UNSC Crawler is a military modification of a civilian vehicle, the Mega Dump truck used in open cast mining:

    Thats it, there is a covenant base so there is some playability, but otherwise its just for looks.

    I think I have seen this before? Well still looks like a great map, it will be fun to play on most defently. I think you should move the railings in the bridge so they are even.

    This is insane! I love how you made the warthog retrieval lift. The aesthetics are amazing, but i think you could "wallpaper" the wheels so they look more like wheels. How much budget is left on this map? you could make an amazing BTB map with this and a scarab as bases. Or you could make it an invasion map with an AA gun. Just a thought.

    This might be good for an invasion map, depending on the remaining budget...
