Subject: Best Warthog Map?

Which maps from the entire Halo series played the best with warthogs? I've been working on a map for BTB, and I'll try to draw inspiration from what you all say..

IMO, Standoff, Valhalla, and Burial Mounds were all good warthog maps. They do a good job balancing warthog with infantry.

Also, what made them the best map?

It isn't our shiznit anymore.

Erm Death Island, Sidewinder, Blood Gulch, pretty much any large CE map. It's hard to capture that scale in the later Halo games.

For the most part, I can see why they were chosen. I didn't play H1 online, but most of these maps have very good paths for warthogs, while still retaining cover for infantry.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

Death Island is amazing for Warthogs. Particularly cause Banshees are powerful there too, and hogs are very good versus them (talking Halo CE here, where a sniper wouldn't destroy a banshee, or a rocket wouldn't lock on, or a laser didn't exist).

Damn Halo 1 rocked.

Standoff is the best hog map and the best BTB map ever made.

Always up for REACH customs!

Sandtrap, Valhalla, Hemorrhage. Especially Sandtrap. How has nobody mentioned Sandtrap? Sandtrap!
