In War, Truth is the first casualty.
Background:
For those of you who haven't seen the map before, here is my current Halo Demo project, Outpost 49. For those of you who remember back about 2 years ago, Outpost 49 should ring some bells; after finishing Crossing I quickly announced that I was working on another new map to follow my first: Outpost 49. However, as time passed, the map that was promised never materialized, and had in fact fallen far, far back into the cold storage of old modding projects. The reason for it's decline lay in several factors; first, I was frightened that the map was going to become too video-lag intensive, second, various technical issues were beginning to crop up, third, I was unsure of the prospect of the map, and fourth, I was becoming increasingly attracted to Halo 3.
After finishing Isle and Night, I was inspired to do what I had done in Isle, and finish up other old projects that I had left behind. Out of these old projects, Outpost 49 stood out. So I dusted off the most recent backup that I could find and started working with it again.
This is the product.
Outpost 49 is a battered and broken space station in Earth orbit. After taking some abuse and boarding action from the Covenant, and fire from a friendly Frigate, the station is dark, messy, and overtly damaged. In this environment, players have the unique opportunity to battle both in the dark, and in the POA-style geometry seldom seen in Halo Demo.

P.S. There's a rather substantial backstory that I've worked up for the station, which is included in the download. Might be worth a look.
