I love how extensive the state of war 2543 map is, but is there anyway where you can start way before the war, So basically at the beginning of the halo verse when the UNSC had just earth, or maybe the inner colonies? And then expand from there?


We don't have a version of that map out that doesn't include all the planets already under your control.

Who would they be fighting? Same idea except after the war would be better.

Well they wouldn't be fighting till they had first contact with the covenant. So basically a prequel to the war, but I like your idea better.

We need a 2v2 map. Maybe even make it a 2 star map.

Alright ladies and gents, I'm back in the game. Will be making a few maps, screening a map submitted to me, and all that good stuff. The ones I'll be making aren't going to be based off of canon star systems.

Spartan, your map is in game and so far it's doing good.

I'm a really big fan of canon maps.

As am I but it really is hard to find canon systems that can be balanced for PvP gameplay.

I'm glad to hear that. I'm actually very proud for some reason (do I have a right to be)

How about making maps that are sectors of other larger canon maps.

umm any more maps you want me to do.

 

i can try to balance it (and make it smaller than last time)

 

i will use the wiki for the system and the planets in the system as well as using star maps to use the systems near there as well

Alright Spartan, if you can piece together some canon maps that'd be great, attempt to make them balanced for multiplayer play, and feel free to use multiple star systems, just no larger than 6 people in one map. Don't worry yourself with the distance between planets, that's something that can be 'fixed' easily.

 

On another note, since the new release is out, any thoughts on the three new maps that were released?

I have recently been watching Martian Successor Nadesco and it has given me an idea. It wouldn't correlate to the Halo universe well but here it is.

 

3v1 all in the Sol system. The 3 start at Earth, Mars, and Venus and 1 at Jupiter. All sizable or tactical moons would be separate gravity wells ( Luna, Phobos, Demos, Io, ect... ). The Jupiter faction would be given more resources so that they pose a threat to the other three.

 

Admittedly it probably wouldn't work in Sins because there is little room to expand but the concept seems interesting to me.

Interesting idea, but it wouldn't work very well in Sins. It'd be straight up ugly.

I know this thread is a bit, erm. Old. But this place seemed best to put the map i made for people to see. And thanks to the people who helped me find a good fifth system. I also used some of the DLC, but i think nearly everyone on the forums has it, so yea.

Stars: 5

Here are the systems.
