TUSK
forged by BORG k79

TUSK is my re imagining of my favorite Halo 2 map, IVORY TOWER. There were always interesting encounters on that map because of the way it is separated. I have set it up for all gametypes. The most desired will likely be FFA Slayer, Team Slayer and 1 Bomb with a little K.O.T.H.

I started out using the SkyBubble Prep, and then once I realized that I would have nowhere near the material necessary to complete the map within budget, I decided to glitch certain items. This all happened halfway through creating the map so it is not the ultimate remake I was hoping for. In hindsight I should have started the map off by making it an ultimate budget glitched map from the beginning, but it still plays just like the original with a few twists and tweaks. The general consensus is that the map is a lot of fun to play on and really does give you a feeling of nostalgia.

I am about to start a new version in the crypt in an attempt to save items on the basement level and the exterior walls. I hope that at the very least TUSK will inspire others to attempt to recreate this map.

SNIPER HALLWAY

ELEVATOR - The Main Lift of the Elevator takes you all the way up to the top into the Sniper Hallway while the Secondary Lift shoots you up onto the Hardwood. It is also worth noting that the Secondary lift only appears in symmetrical gametypes.

THERE HE IS!! GET HIM!!!

As a reminder: This map is budget glitched and I have reached the object limit including all the items from the main level of Sandbox. So if you do decide to change it up a bit be careful what you delete as it may not count towards the object limit. Also because of that fact playing with more than 6-8 players may result in lag issues. Just a heads up.
