[b]UPDATE:[/b] Work on the ONI Invasion map has started. Here's what I have planned so far: P1: Elites break through the wall surrounding the ONI building P2: Elites fight through the courtyard and push onto the ONI building P3: Elites steal the data core and escort it to their Phantom waiting outside Yes, that means I have to forge a Phantom. Or a Spirit--whichever one I can make look more accurate. I'm working on this one because it's easier to do Elite Offense than Spartan Offense. The other two would require more in-depth collaboration from fellow forgers and invasion players alike. Any ideas for the map are welcome. I'm building it on Alaska.

There's a severe lack of good Mombasa maps.[/quote] The Forerunner Invasion one will be the first up, followed by the ONI map and then ODST soon after. Testing for the Forerunner map is set to occur sometime in the first week of February EDIT: I can haz title? :D [Edited on 02.01.2012 1:41 AM PST]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Wumpa Warrior [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] A 3 Legged Goat I'd love to do reverse core but I have to build with the standard Invasion experience in mind if I want to get it into MM. Maybe I'll incorporate it in Phase 2 -shrugs- Just need to figure out what'd make sense. [/quote] Originality is always good though. I wonder what 343i thinks about that.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] A 3 Legged Goat The bomb doesn't reset if it falls out of bounds and you can't separate the arm time from the disarm time. [/quote] That's eye opening.. Thank god my invasion map doesn't have assault. Have you still kept reverse core in mind?
