UNSC Apocalypso
Map Download

Dear Reader,
Please enjoy this innovative new map. Although I have been forging for a while this is
the first map I decided to upload to Forge Hub. This map is designed for objective based game modes (Primarily, CTF and Assault) or asymmetric game modes.

This map includes the UNSC Apocalypso (See Below) which according to Halo Wiki was a UNSC Naval Intelligence (ONI) Prowler . Here is a picture of the ship on my map.

I know she might not look like much but she is equipped with 4 ODST Drop Pods (See Below). In addition I have added a small reactor, multi-purpose room (aka. large open space that can be used for a variety of purposes), and two hornets. This serves as the base for the ODSTs. Since it is very hard to reach it makes sure the defenders can not spawn kill the ODSTs. In addition its elevated position allows it to seem big, bad, and most of all intimidating.

I have worked hard perfecting the ODST drop pods and have made some headway. I have created drop pods that do not break apart unless they glitch or hit something. Although like all drop pods they have their problems they work better than most of the ones I have seen. These add a new fun element to the map. There is nothing like have to covenant splattered under the mass of falling drop pods. Also there is a spot to gear up right next to the drop pods. Enough reading see for your self.

Although they seem simple, I have spent hours tinkering with the drop pods to make a perfect launch. (Sometimes some of them still need you to beat down the sides of the drop pod to confirm drop.)

Enough about the ship there is also the defender's base to look at. Special attention has been made to ensure that this map includes a Covenant base. Not some pile of stones that resembles a house. Everything, layout, architecture, spawning even! has been thought about. For instance the bunkers are inhabited by grunts and grunt weapons can be found there. However, since this is sandbox, I tried to lean more towards a mixture of forerunner and Brute architecture. Covenant religion has also been incorporated into both architecture and design of the map. For instance the ODST drop onto one of the power cables for it is giving the largest power signature (the rest of the base is cloaked from UNSC scanning equipment). As for religion there is an ascension chamber (see below) in which the user goes through a halo like ring. I have wrote enough and do not want to give to much away so just enjoy these screen shots.

Story:
The UNSC Apocalypso has spotted a massive power signature and was ordered to investigate with ODSTs. They find a massive covenant base which purpose remains unknown. They are sent to... (Depends on game mode).
Will they succeed?

Thank you for reading. It has taken me a lot of courage to finally post on a map to Forge Hub. Please comment and rate. I do not mind constructive (only) criticism.
Suggestions?
Comments?
Please post I have worked over 12 hours on this map so tell me what you think.
Thank you for reading!
