Idea for Map (if anyone wants to make it): Mining Map

Hey guys! Sorry if this is posted in the wrong area am basically here to say that I wish I was a good moddeler, and/or understood how to make a map. I have an idea that has been bugging me for a while, and after thinking about it for some time, it has become, in my opinion, promising (if I could ever get it done.) Right now, I only have one picture, and it is my sketch of the red base. (click on it to see a bigger pic)

Image

Basic outline (this may help with idea of map):
The blue team is the miners (maybe start with a pickaxe and a weak blaster pistol) and they start in an underground mine, connected to the red base from the vehicle tunnel (see pic for details). While they were away mining, a group from a nearby rebel colony decided to raid the mining encampment, and took over the base, and the miners must get it back. There is, in addition to the red base (base) and the blue base (the mines), there is a small field on the top of the map, and this can be accessed from the mines or the base. This field could be covered in rocks, trees, rivers, etc., and though it should not be too big, there should be enough room for the warthogs to drive around confortably. Keep in mind that this map would only have human weapons and vehicles.

Well, that's basically it for what I was thinking about for this map...so...if there are any good moddelers or mapmakers (like the ones who brag about thier skills, and upon being asked to make a map, say that they have no good ideas now =P) that wanna give this a try, please go ahead! I would love to see this created, and have already tried...but...uh...(it sucked).

Thanks, and I hope you like my ideas!

Would miners walk around in MOLJNIR armor and have turrets, Pelicans, and Worthogs? How about the red team invading a military base or somthing. Instead of miners :roll:

mb instead of weapons place there are moded weapons like pickaxe and mining hammer. oh and dont forget the chisel gun, alo mb have the turret be a mining laser (use your head, halo is in the future)

btw be grateful that you know how to model (unlike me)

i think that you could use mining tools for some weapons.

Yeah...that would be a good idea.

Just to update everyone here...I have someone working on this map. Its still in its early stages, but it is coming along nice....hopefully in the end it will have an underground vehicle garage, a huge underground mine, and a foresty area up top.

Thanks for all the good ideas!
