Hey guys, I thought of a pretty cool idea :D. You know that theres a chess game of Halo in real life right? Well I dont know if theres is but why not make a game a chess in Halo 3? I have a 'blueprint' of the map I plan on making. The map will be made on a pre-made canvas on Sandbox in the basement floor. You must have purchased Halo Wars LME and have downloaded the Mythic Map Pack in order to play. There will be the Spartans (white) and the Covenant (black).For the pieces, they are as follows:
Piece Spartans Covenant
Pawn Mongoose Ghost
Rook Scorpian Tank Wraith
Knight Hornet Hornet(transport)
Bishop Prowler
Queen Warthog(Gauss) Chopper
King Warthog Chopper

I also have prototype game type settings. I haven't decided the actual game type itself.
-No radar
-Starting weapon: Magnum
-No grenades
-0% Damage
-No shields
-200% Gravity
-Invulnerable

I will start creating the map at 4:00pm (Eastern time: New York). If you would like to help out, e-mail me. My adress is Ant9838@aol.com. The Gamertag is Emotional5car. If you're just going to send an e-mail saying how gay my gamertag might be or how gay the idea of making a Halo chess game is, then dont waste your time. Further details of map design will be disscussed when on Xbox Live. Please do NOT join if you intend on goofing around or plan on doing nothing.

Mongooses. If the "goose" in "mongoose" was referring to the actual animal that is the goose, it would be "mongeese", but, seeming as the mongoose is another animal all by itself, the proper term is "mongooses".

yea i think it would look great on sandbox, so if you have the mythic maps and are still going to do it then may i say i will be a great helper!

Idk, some of the pieces seems wrong to me, and after you took another piece (im guessing by destroying it) the remains would just be sitting on the field. And how will you get enough people to fill the vehicles? Just a few flaws.

I think if you played this if forge and moved the pieces by picking them up, and if one is "taken" out you can just delete them. This is just my idea and I think it would be easier than have a bunch of people.
