I HIGHLY RECOMMEND PLAYING THIS ON HEROIC, playing on easy wont make it fun

Alright this mod is for The single player map Cairo Station (01b_spacestation.map).
The deal here is Heretic Elites and Heretic GRunts are on the human side, its supposed to go along with the halo story, just think of it as a bit of fan fiction.
Since the Heretics know of halo's purpose they team up with humans to stop the covenant. (Basically what the arbiter did on the last level)

The lightmaps are darker due to The covenant attacking their power supply. All the electricity is being run by battery and reserve power.

Hunters and PlanetOfTheApeRejects... I mean brutes now appear on the map (Which is not normal for those of you who only play campagin once)

Living ODSTs.

Some big battles here and there, I wanted to be somewhat realistic.

Lot of changes with character spawns and what they hold.

Brutes and Hunters are going to LOVE your BLOCK YOUR WAY. You'll see what I mean. You'll notice alot of brutes robbed the human armory. And elites picked up some human weapons off their victums.

I didnt change any skins as I dont have photoshop and I suck at skinning, AND theres really no need for it on this level. However in my next series I should be skinning, and adding models.

This map is a part of a series Im making, called Heretic Helpings. If its not that good its because Im getting an idea of what people like in SP maps and keeping it somewhat realistic to the Halo story.
I have no pictures or video currently.

If someone could Zip these for me that would be awesome.

Looks really cool, I always like the new AI mods. Might try this one out. If there's a lot of enemies, then you've definatley got my vote.

PS. First post! <<< Yay I got edited!

Pics would be nice, even if you used a digital camera to take them

PS. I am an idiot!

Theres alot of enimies at certain parts. I didnt want to over do it. There are places with just a single enemy that seeming ly pop out of no where.

I guarntee you wont be able to just walk through the whole level.

Well, it would be pretty cool if there was 8 hunters charging at you in the first room...Like Elite Terror, but with hunters :D You could call it...Hunter Hunting :lol: Getting a bit tired of Elite Terror, so I might give this one a go instead.

PLEASE post a PPF. I can't use Serenity, it never works for me.

just upping the spawn count and changing what they hold isn't (usually) a good mod....

Just a question: If I didn't want to delete my Elite Terror mod, could I patch another copy of Cairo Station with this mod and call it whatever Outskirts is called, and then play it if I select Outskirts as a level
i.e. Renaming Cairo Station to Outskirts and playing Cairo Stations instead of Outskirts?

Sounds like a good map.. Now I'm tempted to get SP onto my HD..

... Kind of a nooby question, does Campaign count as an 'old map' ? I just want to know for resigning..

Yeah you could do that, but Im releasing an outskirts mod... You could probably add one of the maps to the menu so they are seperate.
