-==Summary==
+The map has two large sections of the map separated by a small mountain range. The only way for ground troops to get to the enemies' side of the map is by passing a small opening in the middle of the mountain range which is fortified by [[Energy Wall]]s in which troops can be garrisoned.
-Glacial Ravine is a 3v3 map for Halo Wars, included in the [[Historic Battle DLC]], with two large sections of the map separated by a small mountain range. The only way for ground troops to get to the other side of the map (where your opponent spawns) is by passing a small opening in the middle of the mountain range which is fortified by [[Anti-Vehicle Barrier|shield walls]] in which troops can be garrisoned.
-Each side of the map has 3 areas for the player's bases, and 4 [[Unnamed Harvest Rebel Group|Rebel]] controlled base outlets.
+Each side of the map has three starting bases, and four base build sites initially occupied by [[Rebel Base]]s, which are defended by [[Unidentified insurrectionist group|rebels]]. There is a [[Sentinel factory]] on each side of the map, undefended and allowing players to purchase [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s or [[Super Sentinel]]s. Air units are very useful on this map, as they can simply fly over the mountain range, bypassing the central choke point completely.

-*This map and [[Repository]] are the only maps to feature [[Sentinel Factory|Sentinel Factories]].
+*This map and ''[[Repository]]'' are the only maps to feature Sentinel factories.
+*Originally, there wasn't going to be a second 3v3 map in the Historic Battle map pack. However, due to the complaint for the lack of 3v3 maps, [[Robot Entertainment]] decided to release another 3v3 map, modifying ''[[Frozen Valley]]'' to shorten development time, so this map could be released in time with the other Historic Battle maps.{{Ref/Reuse|hwsite}}
