Deterioration
By TcK SwordScar
Many know of the war against the Covenant and the Marines, but what of the unknown heros? The civilians whose primary objective was to survive. Designed for Conquest but plays all

Origionality- being an engineer I think that most/all of my maps almost require having a switch inside. This was my idea, what if a conquest map with 1 way around the map (hallway-style) was to open up and have multiple points of entry after activating a switch? Thus, Deterioration.

This map is most definitly the best work I have done, with 90% + of the map Interlocked to make sure it is appealing to the eye, with little bumps on the floor. The map layout is basicily a medium-sized(4-12 players) circle, with a few points of interest and hot spots inside. This map was designed for conquest, and such, has many duels and revolves around pushing into the opponents base.

Heres some quotes during the play-testing phase by some respectable members of forgehub...

The most deliciously-awesome conquest map I have seen in a long time...

This is officially my new favorite conquest map!

Enough talk, heres some pics!

Storyline-
Many know of the war against the Covenant and the Marines, but what of the unknown heros? The civilians whose primary objective was to survive.

While Master Chief and the Marines were fighting in the cities and the Metropolis', the civilians were doing everything in their power to defend themselves against The Covenant. Because of many hours of fortification, they found they could defend themselves, and they just might have a chance at life once more. Evil and darkness soon befell upon them...

The day of the apocalypse, the day The Flood awakened upon the earth, the Humans soon found their Fortified Buildings, businesses, and landmarks useless. These new enemies, could wriggle their way inside every nook and cranny and No amount of defense could stop them, as everytime you killed one, it somehow ressurected, and everytime another human died, it meant another enemy to defend against.

Now, even after the flood is destroyed and burnt away from the earth, the remains of this evil slaughter remain, Deteriorating with the dead corpses around them.

An Unfinished process of fortification remains, a sign that a battle once took place here.

These supply trucks - no longer active, await the next time they will activate, weeks, even years later.

Trigger Description---
The trigger used was a minimum/maximum trigger, with the destroyable object being a Machine Gun Turret. How this works is, after a grenade is thrown inside of the hole, it plummets down into a line of fusion coils, detonating them and destroying the turret. The Turret's settings are run time minimum 1, with place at start Yes and Never respawn. Because of Never respawn, another turret with place at start NO, and respawn 180 secs will take priority to instant respawn from runtime minimum 1. This turret is placed halfway inside a double box open, with half sticking out underneath the area of the crate-bridge, keeping it afloat. Because the turret is upside-down, you cannot get on it, and you cannot destroy it because it is halfway inside another immovable-object.

//Huge thanks go to the people who tested, and broke the map. Especially to the people who broke the map, you guys made sure that it was impossible to get outside!
