. . .After making 4 Sky Islands, I decided that I wanted to make another very well made map in the series that was updated with the new "forging techniques", was balanced, fit for pretty much any party size, and fun beyond limit. I knew that in order to do this I would definitely need to bring both new ideas and old ideas from past Sky Islands. For example, two of my old ideas that I brought back was the newly named "Power Lift", that was made up of man cannons that were set up in a circle so that you could lift pretty much anything movable into the air AND also includes the top part where you can effectively surprise, attack, and pwn your enemy. I also brought back the ingenious Bridge. This old fashioned idea has been newly developed to be wider, longer, and extravagantly placed so that vehicles have access to the island. Some new things that I have added are: a lot of attachments to the island... and I mean A LOT, such that there have been numerous platforms added, a whole underside for players to jump/sneak around, a Five Part Transporter, which includes an elevator, and much, much more.
. . .This concludes the lengthened story, but I do want to add so much more... but, well... I can't, people want to see the map... so here you finally go... after nearly four months... I present to you:

This map has been taken from four other predecessors of the series and has been forged from the knowledge of one person and basically 100s of other maps which some I have either made, experienced, or tested. All of these knowledgeable ideas have been put to use in this map to fully make game play the best it can possibly be, make fun and fulfilling experiences, and to be the best dang sky based map that anybody and everybody will ever experience...
. . .Now down to the map's full out description that has been put together in the easiest/neatest way:

-Includes:
-The largest, grandest, and most complex Sky Island that is complete with:

. . .-Three different entrance ways (all merged perfectly), which include:
. . . .-A long and fairly wide Bridge
. . . .-A Power Lift that can raise anything movable into the air
. . . .-And a Five Part Transporter (geo-merged) which has an elevator, a half-way blocker for the lifts (so you can land on a platform in the air), and two man cannons which shoot you to the Island

-Two bases which each have vehicles, weapons, and equipment (furthermore explained below)

-A huge barrier (geo-merged) set in between Avalanche that completely blocks off vehicles and players from going outside the map

-And more

-Weapons/Equipment/Vehicles on Map:

-Symmetrical Weapons/Equipment/Vehicles
(Objects are still located on map during asymmetrical game variants, this also means that there may be two of the same items, but located in the middle of the map)

[Weapons:]

. . .-Sniper Rifle
. . .-Assault Rifle
. . .-Battle Rifle
. . .-Needler
. . .-Brute Shot

[Equipment:]

*Remember:* each base has different equipment (it's still balanced)

-Plasma Grenades

[Vehicles:]

. . .-Warthog
. . .-Banshee
. . .-

-Asymmetrical Weapons/Equipment/Vehicles
(Objects are still located on map during symmetrical game variants)

[Weapons:]

. . .-Mauler
. . .-SMG
. . .-Spiker
. . .-Spartan Laser
. . .-

[Equipment:]

-Energy Drainer
-Bubble Shield
-Regenerator
-Gravity Lift

[Vehicles:]

-none-
(they're all symmetrical)

I have these quotes from anonymous users, who say:

"...The wide open space helps make the game as fun as it is, I highly request you try it out before coming to the conclusion that it’s so open."

"More cover would...make it harder to maneuver vehicles."

And these quotes are relevant to this map, so do remember the name "The Sky Island", and what the map is pretty much based on.
