1f:T619,

Open manors such as this suggest a Forerunner class system similar to our own.

Hi! I've long been a lurker/map downloader at ForgeHub but with Reach I decided to finally join in!

Concept/Inspiration
For Château, I wanted to focus on having a majestic type of manor, full of open-air areas but with nice architectural elements.

The map features two sides with three floors, with a bridge connecting the two at the cliffside and man cannons at at the top of the structure. On the first level is a large garden area leading up to the main entrance of the complex, along with a rounded wall that serves as the main landmark for the map.

On the second level on each side is a room (red on one side, blue on the other). Two staircases in the back corners wind from the bottom floor to the top.

On the second-floor bridge you can find the rocker launcher. Just below the rockets is a fusion coil and a series of canisters. A good marksman can shoot these, which will fire haphazardly onto the garden area below. Getting a kill with one of these is incredibly fun (and funny!)
