MAP DESCRIPTION:
MidPoint is based in the ice cave and the two main bases of Avalanche. At the start of a match, each team spawns in one of these two bases. From there, they can teleport to the ice cave. In CTF or Assault, the idea is traverse the cave, then teleport into the opponent's base where the flag or bomb plant point is located. In the other gametypes, the objectives are only located in the cave. Because MidPoint is linear in shape, the gameplay is similar to tug-of-war. The most common outcome of this are long CTF games and quick comebacks in Conquest. It is crucial that players control the cave!

GAMETYPE DESCRIPTION:
For the most part, the modifications to get these gametypes were made to improve flow. The way I see it, flow is the greatest factor of enjoyment in a Halo match. Most players notice flow subconsciously, but a select few (usually forgers) notice it directly. With this concept in mind, I made the alterations that formed the MidPoint gametypes. Visit this map's blog post for further explanation.
