*NOTE* All gametypes have been tested and function fine.

Hello everyone, this is my final version of my remake of Foundation, Substratum. This is a map I have been working on since the day Reach came out. I have been making aesthetic tweaks as well as some size improvements to accommodate to styles of Reach such as Sprint, Jet Pack, blast radius, etc... This is a map I believe any one can jump into and feel instantly nostalgic. I have a list of features that one can remember during the days of Halo 2. I believe this one can also take everyone back to the days when they custom gamed Rockets only on Foundation and watch bodies fly. Down below I have everything listed such as features and weapons.

Best remake out there. Scenery is top notch, professionally done.I hope this gets noticed because author deserves it.

Map Features:

-Classic Weapon Placement (A few new tweaked ones as well)

-All corners are color coated to make up for lack of numbers on the base walls in order to help call outs.

-Bunker area includes a color coating as well to call out better.

-Aesthetics are a new look for their own so it does not make as a carbon copy of Foundation but rather making an improvement because of graphics.

-Weapon spawn timers are tweaked and set for optimum gameplay to keep them from overloading the map.

-Health packs are placed with balance to the map.

-Soft Kill Barriers are place above to keep people from going above and out of the map thinking they will survive.

Weapons:

2 DMR's (Classic Placed for BR)
2 Spikers (Replaced SMG's in Red and Blue corners)
2 Needle Rifles
2 Plasma Pistols (Replaced SMG's in Green and Orange corners)
2 Shotguns (Classic Placement)
2 Rocket Launchers (Classic Placement)
2 Needlers (Classic Placement)
2 Pistols (Classic Placement)
4 Frags
6 Plasmas
1 Energy Sword (Classic Placement)

PICTURES w/ the Evolution of the Map.

This is an overview shot that shows how the map improved from railing to towering walls.

This is a corner room view and the improvement on v4 was to make the thickness of the wall feel like the way Foundation's was.

This was to give an aesthetic value to the and cover to the pillars and to the Health Stations.

The turret side needed to have the Needle Rifle stand out so I put it at a fixed style so it would have an aesthetic look as well as a clean look and easily seen.

The bunker needed work so I put the purple glow to add the callout aesthetic, then I change the wall type, and then put a pulsing yellow as well, then I changed the objects to yellow color to give it a look that stands out.
