Ravinia
Here it is!! Months of forging, testing and perfecting has brought me here: to the post. I am very proud of my first creation on Sandbox, supporting all gametypes and showing off what could be done with Bungie's new Mythic map. I can't say just exactly how long it took to build and polish Ravinia but I can say it was well over a month. AZN FTW was there for me the entire way. Using his knowledge (and hot girlfriend - wink) the spawns and weapon placement has reached it's full potential. Because of him, Ravinia is one of the most well playing maps to come out on Sandbox. For that I award him cocreator.
Gametypes
All official gametypes are supported on my map. Plus I found that SWAT and snipers play well too. For team gametypes I suggest Team Slayer, One bomb, KOTH and oddball. For FFA I suggest slayer, oddball and KOTH. If you're looking to switch things up a little, infection plays well also.
Weapons
On Ravinia there are 4 BRs and 2 carbines. At first a person might think "OMG this is going to be assault rifle spam." No. If you remember back in Halo 2, there is only 2 BRs on Midship. And 4 BRs on Turf. Both me and AZN believe that the BR should be considered a power weapon. For in Halo 3, it has been proven time and time again, gameplay is terrible if half the people in the game have BRs. Then the people who don't have one are helpless. This amount is plenty. Don't judge before testing.
1 sniper rifle - 90 seconds - 8 shots
1 rocket launcher - 120 seconds - 2 shots
1 overshield - 180 seconds
2 SMGs - 90 seconds - 1 spare clip
2 plasma pistels - 90 seconds
1 shotgun - 150 seconds - no spare clips
Thankyou to everybody who I pissed off when I was looking for testers!!
