Greetings fellow forgers, this is to be my first map that I post for your enjoyment and/or criticism. The map is called "A Bridge To Far", for the obvious reasons of the bridge in the middle of the map, its designed for 12-16 player and plays best on CTF and slayer and is set up for all default gametypes; though I strongly recommend you don't stray into the more exotic ones.

Back in the days of Halo 3 big team battle was my all time favorite playlist, and while Reach has done great things for the franchise, it has done bad things to BTB, specifically the map selection; and while the noble map pack and the upcoming defiant map pack are doing (and will do) great things for this type of playing, at the time I started this map neither of these were in sight; and thus I bring you my map.

The map is based heavily on the classic blood gulch formula(BGF), two simple bases on either end of the canyon with cover on the sides and lots of vehicles, the differences on this map are the infantry exclusive middle base and bridge. When playing on maps that use the BGF I always thought that there needed to be something to do when all the vehicles have gone kablooy. The middle base seems obvious then, providing a break in the line of sight between the bases and allowing for a safe haven when crossing the canyon on foot. The bridge provides infantry quicker access to the enemy base as well as creating a place where they can go to not have to worry about vehicles at all.

Alright enough of my ramblings, time for pictures

Overview

Plasma launcher on middle of bridge, time for some kaboom.

The lifts on the bridge will take you to the shield door bumpers.

Both red and blue can spawn in neutral base.

Neutral falcon, hows that for a power weapon.

Sneaky entrance into the base.

Sniper towers don't have line of sight on each other

Action shots

Battle on the bridge.

Getting the falcon first isn't always a good thing.

Vehicles have it a little harder.

Well, some vehicles.

Everyone tries to get a vehicle on the bridge, it never goes well.

Something specific I would like opinions on are whether I should put wraiths, or other power vehicles, on the map.
