Complex is holographic reconstruction of [[Galileo Base]], used during [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[War Games]] combat simulations. Galileo itself was a makeshift UNSC research facility located on the northeastern coastline of [[Requiem]]'s largest continent. With the presence of numerous hostile entities on Requiem, ONI rigidly enforced a "Persistent Field Resilience" mandate requiring that all science detachments (1) maintain onsite weapon caches, (2) optimize the site's layout to meet ONI spec for defensive emergencies, and (3) retain an escort of well-trained military personnel. | Formally titled "War Games Map_Set/: 615-3", Complex is holographic reconstruction of [[Galileo Base]], used during [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[War Games]] combat simulations.

The base was built around a [[Forerunner]] artifact that was in the process of being excavated. The base's central structure is a multilevel building with a tall Forerunner object in the center. The facility appears damaged in at least one location (the building in the center of the map contains broken monitors). Lots of flora are present, the most prominent being the almost [[Ugparassa tree|asparagus-like trees]] and the pink-red ferns. | The base was built around a [[Forerunner]] artifact that was in the process of being excavated.

Galileo Base was a critical site during Infinity’s [[Requiem Campaign|protracted ground campaign]] on Requiem, against [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] in [[2558]]. Although this location was intended to be solely a science facility, ONI's "Persistent Field Resilience" mandate proved well-founded, as the Covenant laid siege to Galileo numerous times, spurring multiple [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan IV Fireteams]] into action. | Galileo Base was a critical site during Infinity’s [[Requiem Campaign|protracted ground campaign]] on Requiem, against [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] in [[2558]].

Complex is a mid-to-large asymmetrical map with an emphasis on ranged combat and long sight-lines. The base itself is a compound made up of three large buildings, a half-dozen or so small rooms, and numerous corridors and open walkways. In addition to these, there is another human structure that provides three pillars for cover. The only natural "structure" is a rocky, enclosed tunnel. The map has only one side exposed to the nearby ocean, which players may fall into if they are not paying attention or are knocked off. No large vehicles are present, but a small quantity of [[Mongoose]] | Complex is a mid-to-large asymmetrical map with an emphasis on ranged combat and long sight-lines.

The [[energy sword]] and [[Scattershot]] are located near the center, by the "Factory". Two [[sniper rifles]] spawn at each team's base. The Ghosts and Mongooses spawn at both team's spawn bases. | The [[energy sword]] and [[Scattershot]] are located near the center, by the "Factory".
