Merry Mythic Map Pack Day
Posted by urk at 12/23/2008 11:00 AM PST
The Mythic Map Pack floodgates aren't quite ready to be busted wide open just yet - we're still several months away from the official release alongside the Halo Wars Limited Edition - but in lieu of the Holiday season, we thought you deserved a few small stocking stuffers.  You've been waiting so very patiently.  We appreciate it.

Some of these screenshots have already made their way into a handful of traditional publications, so you may have already laid eyes on them, but there are a few originals in this pack that should help you get an idea of the layout and design of a pair of new spaces included inside the Mythic Map Pack.  Click on the thumbnails below for higher resolution versions.  Save them to your local hard drives.  Show your friends.  And make sure you check back Friday for some more Holiday love.
