Gamer Tag: CrimsonVolver Name of Map: Vanguard on Impact, Halo 4 Supported Gametypes: Team Banshee, Banshee KOTH, Oddball, All Slayer gametypes including ordinances, CTF, Regicide, Flood Customized Gametypes in Fileshare: Team Banshee, Banshee KOTH, Oddball on Vanguard (Suggest increasing sensor range to 25 for other gametypes that use radar) Player Count: 12-16 Vehichles on map: 8 Banshees Description: This map has been in the works since December 2012; The concept for this map revolves around the idea that this was once a Covenant Forward base in the early years of the first wars. It was abandoned and taken over by UNSC forces. There is a dome-shaped platform in the center, and two bases linked by man cannons on opposing sides. The Vanguard dome is completely playable, even without Banshees. In these cases you can have 4v4 as long as players seek to engage each other, rather than camping out in the bases. The map within the dome is vertical, with man cannon lifts and ramped bridges leading from top to bottom, and a little investigating will find several unique and not-so-obvious pathways from the top to the bottom, particularly near the Red and Blue platforms inside the dome, where there are two (each) drop ins that take players to the lower hall. There are other Banshee-themed gametypes as well. KOTH is set up with the KOTH hills preset to lower gravity for jep packing players to launch into the hill and try to disable or hijack enemy banshees. Of course, this is also opportunities for banshee-driving players to get vehicle kills or splatters. SWAT plays well on here, no vehicles of course. I wish Oddball allowed players in vehicles to pick up the ball, but alas, not possible. As this map is in Impact, there are several skill jumps, esp to the center of the map, which means failed jumps can lead to a trip into the abyss, so be careful. I have spent literally hours upon hours inside this map, and at one point because of a glitch with the Forge I had to almost completely start over—but I am not unhappy with the end result. I have made dozens of maps over the years, going back to Halo 3 when merging objects was still just a glitch, so I hope you can tell by this map that I am an experienced forger, though admittedly most of my maps are simply enjoyed in Custom Games with friends, though I have submitted maps to contests like “Meet Your Maker,” and Forgetacular back with Reach. I am taking my forging a little bit more seriously these days, so you will be seeing more of my maps posted to this forge group as well as in other forge communities. I have two other maps that have the conceptual architecture finished, but need playtests, feedback, and refined weapon layouts and spawning. CrimsonVolver
