Well, it's certainly been a while since I've posted a map. But the ideas keep coming so I keep forging!

I present to you: Reactor Core!

First and foremost, yes Reactor Core looks a lot like "Boarding Action". Reactor Core is inspired by, and an homage to the Halo 1 map Boarding Action, although smaller. The map features two symmetrical bases facing one another.

Let's get this out of the way. The center pit EQUALS DEATH. No, I won't give you an easy way out. You aren't supposed to fall in. You can escape if you're lucky, but 99% of the time you'll die by the fusion cores, or everyone shooting at the moron who fell in (hehe).

Reactor Core is a 3 tiered level. Your radar is somewhat neutered in this situation. However, this makes combat all the more intense. Sometimes knowing what side you are on can be confusing, but just glance at the lettered signs on each side.

Combat shifts a lot in this map. From ranged battles across the pit with BRs, Snipers and Needlers, to close range scuffles with SMGs and Brute Shots. Communication is key. As your allies sneak across, tell them where enemies are hiding, and pin the opponents down with constant fire, and grenades.

By the way: Multiflag CTF is a blast on this.

Everybody loves Screenshots!

Overview of the map. The "Pit of Death" in the middle

One of the bases. Took a long time to make the floors as even as possible while making sure I didn't use up my walls and stuff too early :p

The First floor has an express lift straight to the third floor

and has a tasty active camo to boot!

The Third floor is where the flagroom is. It's easy to protect the flag with the choke points, but be warned that grenades can easily clear this room out too.

The flagroom has 2 entrances. The left one leads to the stairwell. The right one is where the grav lift takes you

There is a sniper rifle on each side, with plenty of cover but be wary...

Teleporters make it easy for enemies to sneak up and assassinate you!

Blue learns the hard way.

The Choke points to the flag room must be tackled carefully

Blue holds the Fort

Someone didn't get the memo...
