"On the blood of our fathers, on the blood of our sons... we swore to uphold the Covenant!"

Sanghili are reptile like creatures which are extremely adept to combat scenarios earning the name Elites. Elites are fast, highly agile, powerful, and most importanly extemely intelligent.
Calling Sanghilios as their homeworld, the Elites were one of the first species to join the Covenant and adept its religion. Although this joining process was a very long and bloody war between the Sangheili and the San 'Shyuum (prophets), the two sides eventually came to an agreement and joined together as allies. The prophets made up the leadership, scientific, and religious aspects, while the Elites became the military backbone for the Covenant.
Sangheili have a number of physical features which make them very adept for combat. Most of their muscle strains are doubled up resulting in the natural prowess. The creatures have at least two hearts. Their legs are digitigrade meaning that the upper and lower legs are farily short, with an elongated tarsals. Also their knees are reversed. This feature make the Elites extreemely fast on their feet with an ability to leap great hights and distances. (Note that in Contact Harves as a sign of disrespect from the Brutes the Elites were asked to climb up a standard ladder while inspecting the Brute's ships. This was very difficult and awkward for the Elites because of the reverse knee.) Their homeworld has a much higher gravity then most of the UNSC colonies resulting in even more swift combat performance.

Most Sangheili are about a foot taller than any Spartan 2s, but there have been exceptions such as the Arbiter seen in the Halo Wars (Ripa 'Moramee) who reached 8'1" and dwarfed any other elite or human.
Sangheili Have a ranking system based from what is known from combat leathality, honor, bravery, and experience. With a culture very similar to futal Japan the Sangheili price honor very hightly and if wounded or captured in battle will commit retual suicide. If not able to do so, they will often ask their fellow elites to do so for them.

The Sangheili despite the prophet's claiming humans as unclean and unworthy beings, overall respected their enemy. The elites on multiple occasions saw the individual sacrifice which marines, ODSTs, and Spartans made alike in orded to save their squad's or buy time
Many Fleetmasters risked their rank and blood lines by standing in front of the counsil and requesting at least a consideration of admitting this race into the Covenant.

Anyway props to you if you actually read all that.

If you enjoyed the Hunters, you will get a kick out of this:
Screenshots





















Creator notes: You may want to look at this either in forge mode or theater (forge)
Customs are fine too (less buggy) but half of the sword will be missing.
There is a sort of easter egg in this map as well. Look at the elite from an
an angle which most people will not ("expect") and it may take you
somewhere cool. Also I don't like taking screenshots in forgemode, but
you should understand why I did. This is not a halo 3 elite, but more like Halo Reach design, mixed in with my own ideas of what would make an elite look cool while still keeping it an elite. I had a few pic references, but the pose is mine, and most of the project was from head. Feel free to PM or message me on live with any building process questions. Most of it is just like you would sculpt a real statue.

Special thanks:Bungie-for the creativity of character development, and inspiration.
GeneticSpartan for a great canvas map. It was very organized and easy to
work with. (I recommend it)
Lord Agastus- I did end up going with your shield door idea for the sword
rather than pure spawn points.
And the entire xSoGx crew! Thanks for your support, promotion, and
constant distraction. Oh and you guys are responisble for 80% of my

This is a vehicle of my own invention. However, unlike the Umbra and the Spidercrab, this is a UNSC vehicle. It's a small cargo ship--about the size of a pelican (give or take)--for in-atmosphere heavy lifting. Originally I was going for a bulkier troop-transport vehicle, much more similar to the pelican, but as the project began to take shape, the idea of a cargo ship sort of stuck.

Also, you'll notice its wings are not perfectly lined up. This is intentional, as, like the pelican, I'd imagine a VTOL ship like this would call for the wings to be adjustable.

Behold, the Buzzard.

Rear bottom view - wings and propulsion systems



Rear view - cargo bay (the ship has a very open design for easy loading and unloading)

So in the gametype, which is VIP, spawners by the spirit have to kill Sgt. Forge (The VIP)

Also there is a Spirit from Halo Combat Evolved, and the cutscene in Halo Wars which is located above the console.

My first post, Acid Reflex, (http://www.forgehub.com/forum/mini-game-maps/103690-acid-reflex.html)
went okay and now I'm trying my hand at a second post. Wish me luck...
Hey, have you ever been enjoying a nice campaign mission with your chums, when all of a sudden, your 'idiot' spartan buddy is morbidly injured? You ever wonder where he goes while you are waiting for him to respawn? Why, he goes to Hotel Recovery!
More or less, there's 3 stories: The residences, the lobby, and the basement, which includes the casino, private indoor pool, the bar, and the hospital, which (ironically) is located right next to the club. The motive was simple, a clan map in which each player has their OWN room. I was kind of obsessed with finding a map like that. I couldn't, so I made my own. It has everything a private hotel would, exept for a golf coarse and everything is NEATLY interlocked exept for the roof, which is made of 'T' walls. There are three rooms, one 'post', and 8 beds total.
You spawn in the hospital

This is the hospital. Here you see the two 'cots'. Usualy houses non-clan members, or guests. An open room with no privacy, and no tech.

Also in the hospital- The two insanity chambers. These are used to hold the mentaly infirm for as long as necessary. Beds included inside. If there are too many players for all the rooms, a few could claim to be mentaly unstable, and sleep in these.

Connected to the hospital via pipeline, is the bar/casino/club. Here are two residents hogging the bar, Inhaling. (Naughty Naughty).

I....I don't think this needs an explainatain. Is that a patient? Ughgh... *shivers*

The Privite indoor pool for all you indoorsy folk out there. Connected to the casino.

However, make sure to shower before getting in!!!

Please, take one of our magnificent brochures with you when you go!!!

The supercomfy armchair!!!

The view room
*One window
*One bed
*Normal Door
*Normal Space
*Good view
This is a standard room, but it has an epic view!

The Privacy Room
*No windows
*One Bed
*Secureidoor
*Normal Space
*Double lock
This room is for the nonsocial member. The Secureidoor entrance is located in guard room 05, meaning that an intruder will be killed if the game is 'played right'. (will be explained later.)

The Penthouse
*One window
*Luxury bed
*Normal door
*Large space
*Computer Terminal
Only the leader of the clan, or at least last match'es winner should claim this room. And yes, the arch interlocked through the ceiling is the terminal. Give me a break, I didn't use the INF. money glitch, okay?

Guard Room 05
*One window
*Floor Pallete Bed
*Disfunctual door
*Small space
*Unused Guard housing
Sorry for the crappy picture, (its the door on the left)
This room is for the toughest, most merciless clan member. This small space can actually be considered a prize in some cases. Located right next to the penthouse for obvious reasons, this room serves another purpose- to kill intruders to the private room.
Hear one last thing. 'If played right' means the right player type for each room. Look in the room descriptions for them. Also, you might want an honor rule to be "don't break in to another players room. Oh, and If a door falls in, break it until it respawns right. They don't always respawn right. (the lobby has the best aesthetics, trust me.) Below is a goodbye shot from the front desk.

Hope we see you soon....Eheheheheh!

"They're all scary and angry and they like to smash things..."— Bungie

Background: Hunters less commonly known as Mgalekgolo are actually colonies of smaller worm like creatures called Lekgolo which join together to exponetially increase the overall strength and intelligence.
When the Covenant stumbled onto the Hunter's homeworld Te, instead of freely mining its resourses the covenant was greeded by an opposition so powerful that all of their efforts were halted. Due to the hunter's natural physique they were unstoppable in any ground skrimishes, and overpowered even the Sangheili (Elites) killing the arbiter assigned for this task. Covenant was left only with one option, to bombard the planet's surface with overheated plasma essantially glassing it. Mgalekgolo were forced to submit or face destruction by technology which they could not match.
After joining the covenant the Mgalekgolo would provide bipedal combat forms for the war effort and in return have full access to the covenant interstellar travel.

Hunter's bipedal forms average 12 to 13 feet tall (Note that some colonies have grown large then the wraith tanks). The Sangheili, respecting the hunter's warrior physic provided their armor (same material used for their ship hauls.) This armor tends to make the hunters slouch down to about 8 to 8.5 feet. When the Lekgolo colony grows too large it splits in two. These two colonies act as two separate beings, but are mysteriously tied together. These colonies always fight in pairs, deployed in 2s and are known as bond brothers. The spikes on the backs indicate where the colony split in half.

Armed with assault cannons which are intergrated directly into their armor, the hunters may choose to fire in single shots or in a devastating fluid beam depending on the situation. The shield on their left arm, weighing at nearly 2 tons can aslo be used as an unstoppable melee weapon.
Source

So without any more further delay screenshots:















Creator notes: Teleporter to the cannon will be blocked. Walk into it and jump up.
Some parts are not perfect, enjoy em for what they are.

Special thanks to: xSoGx Flamingo with her help with spawn movement and comical presence while forging. Given To Fly 93, and all those others that hopped in and out of the lobby.

Once everyone spawns, they are supposed to go to the armory and pick up weapons, once they did that they battle it out in the arena.

TELEPORT SWITCH

Hey guys, this is my first switch-type map I've posted. I can not take credit for the switch itself because that idea came from someone else. But everything else in the map was made by me.

Overview:

THE SWITCH:

To activate the switch you get the custom power-up.

ACTIVATION:

The custom power-up releases a bomb that destroys an air lift which activates the other lift.

TELEPORTER:

WEAPONS:

The teleporter takes you outside of the map to a row of weapons that you can choose from.

TELEPORTER 2:

This teleporter takes you to some custom power-ups

AND VEHICLES

The rest of the open space is just for having fun on the vehicles.
*REMEMBER* sometimes you may have to restart the round in the beginning as the teleporter does not always spawn at "no"

If you would like a tutorial on how to make the switch than message me on xbox live. GT: elitebiker18

I hope you guys like it.

Description: Well, to start, this took a LONG while to make. I started from the base foundry map, and cleared it. The photo will describe more than text can though. Ha. Really, all you'd do on this map is mess around, and have fun with your friends, and maybe this could be used for a machinima. Just make sure to give me credit, and messege me any custom versions of the map if you would so kindly.

COBRA CASTLE
Hey guys. This is my second Aesthetic map post. I call it Cobra Castle because it is my clan's headquarters. My clan is called the C44 Cobras. Anyway, this map isnt the biggest castle out there, but it still has a lot of cool features. This map can support mainly infection gametypes. I would have to say this map took me about 1-2 days to complete and it is actually the first castle i've ever made.
PICTURES
Front View

As you can see on of the main "castle like" features is its big tower and creepy looking entrance. I think it looks cool!

Overview

Vehicle spawn

I decided to put a vehicle so me and my clan could have a little "driving" fun.

Main Room

Little room

I added a little room on each side of the main hall that are good for hiding from enemies.

The Spiraling Staircase

The staircase spirals around the inside of the big tower and features a sword placed in the middle.

The Shiny Bridge

This bridge allows you access to the sniping roof...... and, for some reason, it is very shiny.

The Sniper Roof

The Teleporter

There are stairs leading down from the sniping roof that lead to a teleporter...... this room is also very shiny.

The Reciever

The teleporter takes you to the top of the big tower. It is a very good spot for sniping or lasering peoples brains out.

So thats basically it. If you guy want to join my clan than message me on xbox live. Ill be looking forward to seeing what you guys think of it. Also, if you guys can think of anything to add to map or any gametypes for my map than please let me know... Thanks and have fun!

This is my first aesthetic map post so I hope you like it. It did take me a while to make because of the merging. You can go in the houses and walk around the outside wall which can be good for whatever you want to turn this map into. All I ask is that if you do use this map for any kind of gametype please do not remove any pieces. You can add whatever you want just dont delete anything. I would also like to thank you for the comments you left on my other maps. If you have not seen my other maps they are called Gyration(race), Helix(race) and Rumble pit(battle).
