Welcome to Forerunner Field and Mongoose Home Run Derby!
2-8 Players
*Best used with Gametype Variant "Homerun Derby" by iKnowledge*

Features:

*Box seats in the Left field wall
*Bleachers for the poor people
*Skybox for maximum viewing(if you can find the VIP entrance)
*Fully functional fireworks display with a fuse
*Concession stand
*Pitching machine in the crypt for practice


This is my version of Homerun derby that my friends and I love to play. I used the middle layer of Sandbox strictly because of the high ceiling limit. My stadium was built to resemble Fenway Park's shorter distance but tall left field wall and a farther away but shorter right field wall. With that all said, lets get to the rules.


Basically you have one batter at the grav lift(home plate) with grav hammer ready and pitcher is on a mongoose(the baseball).


The pitcher will then drive the mongoose towards home plate and once he hits the grav lift the batter will aim, swing, and attempt to hit him over the wall.

The pitcher gets the choose whether the pitch will be a fastball, change-up, curveball, or slider.

Fastball- pedal to the floor and gun it towards the grav lift
Change up-same as fastball but hit the brakes right before you hit home plate
Slider-basically this is the same motion as a fastball but with a gradual angle
Curveball-again the same motion as a fastball but with a turn right as you hit home plate


Now, depending on the pitch the batter will have to adjust his aim in order to hit a homerun. I will let you guys figure it out, but I will tell you that if you jump with the Change up the success rate goes way up on your chances of hitting a homerun. If you manage to crank a full speed fastball then those babies will get some distance, I hit one out into the laser fields beyond right field wall once.

Now if you are not pitching there are other jobs you can take.

Pyrotechnician- responsible for the timely detonation of the fireworks after a homerun is hit

Outfielder-You have to be on the ground and what you try to do is try to shoot down any homeruns with the rocket launcher(I have yet to see someone rob a homerun like this, but I have robbed a foul ball)

Food and Beverage Engineer- Get your hair net out and man that concession stand!




We like to play 3 rounds and in each round you get 7 outs. Anything that is hit and is not a homerun is considered an out. After 3 rounds the person with the highest amount is considered the weiner. We also swap out pitching, pyro, and outfield duties.


I hope you guys and gals enjoy this map because I did put a lot of time into building it and testing it to make it work. I wasn't going to post it at first , but I thought that the community would really enjoy this because we always have a blast playing and competing for the homerun title.


Thanks go out to ROC x CITY, SiK x bullet x, Mr Scrizzle, and Xavier Soul for their help with the testing and balancing.

[Maps and Games]


Asteroids is a game just like the old classic 'Asteroids'. You all spawn on an island surrounded by towers that shoot fusion coils at you, your objective is to try to stop the fusion coils from hitting you, by either shooting them or dodging them and aim to rack up points by staying in the hill. The hill does move so be on your toes. First person to reach 100 wins. Fusion coils are fired from any angle so be prepared.

Also you cannot kill anyone else, if you do it is -10 points.
Uncontested Hill = 2 points per second
Contested Hill = 1 point per second

4x Bubble Shields
4x Deployable Cover
1x Regenerator
1x Gravity Lift

You spawn with a Battle Rifle and a Sniper Rifle.

Play with 'AstaRoyDz' Game Varient.
Best with 2+ players

Enjoy!

LOOKOUT BELOW
OK.........So here it is, my first map for Halo 3 ever made. Download it NOW, I know you will not be disappointed. It has a new concept for a Halo 3 map that i know of, set on Sand Box, a 3 Level Map. LOOKOUT BELOW is intended for 4-16 players with plethora of high points, some hide-aways (be careful no one sees you hide though,LOL), even some run-aways for the weak hearted. HA HA, the map can be used for slayer, swat, social, any thing. Download it TODAY and give me feedback tomorrow.

LOL, a warthog can go into "CRAB" mode.

This is one of my latest Sandbox creations

It is a very interesting take on the gametype of VIP Escort.

It involved having one team spawn at the far end of the map stuck in a box which they can see out of, with unlimited rockets.

The defending team who need to escort the VIP at the other side hidden behind ramps so that they don't need to move until they are ready (but rounds last 3 minutes and you can only score by reaching the Destination point).

The fun part of the game is the creativity the attacking side has in trying to avoid all the rockets coming from the other team,

There are all different strategies they can take in say, diversion warthogs to trick the other team...to....having a warthog infront of the one with the VIP to act similar to a blocker in NFL.

Here is the link, Enjoy

How to play this map:

The human starts near to the teleporter and they must as fast as they can go into the porter and boarding into Mongoose. With the Mongoose they must jump over the bridge and then they must hide in the House.
The Zombies have a longer way to the porter. With their 50% Gravity they can jump over the bridge and search for human in the house.

I hope you have fun with my map and sorry for the worth english I speak and write.

-watchyourback13-

Map name, Structure, screenshots, here, here, here, and here.

Description: An underground forerunner church with a temple, alters, and high praying areas. This church has been turned into the next battleground. the temple's in the center, the four alters surround it with two high areas perfect for sniping, and two other medium ground areas with shotguns and cover. The weapons are a mix of Covenant and U.N.S.C. Good for slayer and team slayer. 6-16 players.

Please just play on this once. You won't be disappointed. I think that most of my maps are crap but this one is actually my best work. I will be modifying it every week. Expect an update a week until i think it is worthy to be on Bungie Favorites.

I Made this map for a reason. I want to be a bungie favorite so whenever i click the start button go to BF(bungie favorites) there i am ! I also want t oshow that i have forge skills :P
and beleive me it's a pretty good infection map and it's oen of the new mythic maps. I Forged it on Sandbox. Is it a Success? Well, it's up to you guys to rate it or not if its eligible for a Bungie Favourite.

About(the map): You are stuck in a endless Labyrinth trying to look for your lost friends/archeologists but your not alone. The cursed Mummy is there with you all. You have to stick together or die by the mummys rotten hand's !.

Don't feed the Trolls but give them sunlight!

here's a map i have posted a long time ago still only have 7 downloads becuz only my friends render them to theirs (or not and play them there selfs) i have a preview vid for you to download and i have several pics on some of the highlights in the map...
just check it out on my fileshire (GT: The legend M and, if you need, Bnet name: the M Gamer (cant seen to change that.....?) btw how do i make a link to my fileshare where you cant do anything but just look and download (becuz i have made a link for it but then i still can adjust or delete files in it....) btw check under the file set The Crypt

btw,

players recommended: 4 V.S 4 / 6 v.s 6

game types: team slayer, 1 flag CTF, multi flag CTF, team swat becuz of that there are 2 "towers" floating in the air with open spaces so hyou should be able to shoot them and they are able to shoot you :D also the respawn places are fully coverd so you wont have to worry about that....
no vehicles and mostly batle rifles (and other) no rokets or any misslepods and no Spartan laser but a brute shot instead becuz it doesnt kill you in 1 shot (it has low amount of shots)

and there is a nice maze below the floating tower (the red 1 see pic.)

aditional info:...... not really said everthing i need before download check the pics and download the little preview of the map and then decide (i can tell you i spend some work on it and its symettrical and its alot of fun playing there :D)
