This is one of the many maps I have constructed but only my 4th attempt at an invasion map. I have went and redid this map on multiple occasion trying to get it just right. The spartans are attacking. i keep getting told to remove the vehicles but they are there to assist you and i made it so you cant get on vehicular manslaughters that easily and in order to you really need to know how to avoid a barrage of grenades, AR fire, DMR fire, ect. I have built in 4 differnt ways to reach the core on the top platform of the tower. the story behind the map is this:

The UNSC has discovered that the covenent is in possesion of a map to another HALO ring. Its the job of 6 sole UNSC spartans to extract this map and return it their entrance point where a falcon is comming to air lift them out.

The spartans spawn with 1 grenade in a small area with rocks for cover and about 4 DMRs that are not often used. In order to advance to the tower they have 2 territories they can capture. The elites spawn on the opposite side of one way shields at the 2 territories and have 2 needle rifles they can obtain. They also only spawn with 1 plasma. After the first phase is finished the spartans must penetrate the tower using the bomb they are given. The are given a sniper and a rocket each with only 1 clip and 2 warthogs(default). the elites must defend this area using the 2 ghosts, focus rifle, and fuel rod(1 clip) that they are given. After penetrating the tower 2 teleporters on each structure next to the ghost will spawn giving instant access to areas next to the core. there are 2 elevators that go to the top core area and a final telelporter under the first ramp that telelports you to the level right below the core. the core is covered by 3 portable shields(might edit this and make it 2 depending on the responses i get). After obtaining the core they must get from the top level back to the ground(2 telelporters or jump down) and return to their original spawn area where a falcon will pick them up for transport(not really just part of the story).

This map is all queued up for download. I wont get to look at it for a few more hours but it looks a bit small to hold 12 people... plans on a playtest anytime soon?

Yea i know it seems small for 12 people but thats when its the most fun. i had a play test with older versions and i even have a video of an older test run(not rendered). im actually planning on doinging a test run of the newer version tuesday with my other group around 8pm est if you would like to join in. just send me a msg on xbl so i remember your GT and i can invite you.

Well nevermind about that playtest now.I have gotten the red ring of death and currently have no means of getting on live aside from xbox.com. it may be sometime before i get a new xbox or have this one repaired.....
