"In an arctic wasteland with sub zero temps, a remote Covenant outpost and its garrison have no idea of the horrors that await them. The cold will be the least of your worries."
My final map of 2023 is finally here - and it certainly has been worth the wait! If you were a big fan of Floodhalla, this map will also be right up your alley. Snowbound has been decked out with an entirely new vibe. On a cold winter’s night, a group of Covenant troops stationed at a remote outpost is about to receive some unwanted, terrifying visitors. A massive Flood onslaught is about to commence, and you must help repel the invaders for as long as you possibly can. Your distress calls have been heard, and reinforcements are on their way. Prepare yourself for a unique and addicting AI battle that will keep you hooked for hours of AI Battlefield fun!

Features:
- An endless AI war that will continue for as long as the game lasts.
- Fight alongside the Covenant (BLUE team) or Flood (PURPLE team).
- A brand new midnight theme for Snowbound.
- All new placed props throughout the map for a fresh feel.
- Additional items added to the Forge palette, with an increased budget.
- Custom scripted Phantom dropship that transports Covenant reinforcements.
- Flood dispersal pods from the H3 campaign scripted to deliver Flood reinforcements. These can land in a multitude of locations.
- Carefully controlled AI population, so there is no intelligence loss among the bots.
- All AI come in with a large array of assorted weapons, ranks, types, and equipment, which are all custom weighted and managed. This way each fight is different every time.
- Interactive AI squads that can be called in by the player via placed control switches on map.*
- Custom placed weapon and equipment spawn locations throughout the map.
- The Covenant turrets no longer kill you for trying to leave the map
…..And more!
*Not all squads can be controlled via switches in this level. Only the Covenant units can be toggled by players in the map’s current release.
AI Teams:
Covenant - BLUE
Flood - PURPLE
Custom Assets:
Unlike my previous mods, this map does not utilize any custom content made by other modders. The only custom asset in the map is listed below. If you guys want me to implement some custom content, let me know in the comments!
- Special Operations Grunts restored from Halo 2 by me.
Known Issues:
- You may come across lighting bugs when on the map. These should be minor, uncommon and not detrimental to gameplay.
- Sometimes a few of the Flood may hesitate to advance from the narrow paths behind the bases. If you notice a group no longer spawning, check these areas for stragglers. This should be rare according to my testing.
- AI pathfinding is kind of imperfect within the underground, and Covenant base interiors. Bots may hesitate to pursue you when in these areas.
