'''Derelict''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. It is set aboard a Forerunner space station apparently in orbit around [[Threshold]], as the planet is visible through the windows, as well as the moon [[Basis]]. It is cataloged by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] as [[Deep-Space Anomaly 0198|Deep-Space Anomaly #0198]]. It is a very small level that is best suited for 10 or less players, as more can become extremely chaotic unless that is the desired effect.

[[Image:Derelict.jpg|left|200px||thumb|An overview of the map]]
Derelict is a small symmetrical map where battle is fast and furious. The four pillars near the center of the map support a cross-shaped system of catwalks. These catwalks are accessible only by teleporter. The catwalks make excellent sniping or grenade-throwing positions, though standing still at any place on this map means inviting a swift death.


In the center, on the upper level is an [[overshield]], on the lower level is a [[Health Pack]]. The [[active camouflage]] is on the upper level between two lights. The [[SRS99C-S2 AM sniper rifle|sniper rifle]] is on the area exactly opposite the Active camo before three lights.
===Weapon Locations===
*[[MA5B|Assault Rifle]] - In front of one of the passageways, and on the other side.
*[[Flamethrower]] (PC/Mac only) - In the middle of one of the second level passageways.
*[[Needler]] - On one of the passageways on the second floor.
*[[M6D|Pistol]] - Near both teleporters.
*[[Shotgun]] - In front of a passageway.
*[[SRS99C-S2 AM|Sniper Rifle]] - After teleporting to the second floor, look right.
*[[M19 SSM| Rocket Launcher]] - In the center of the top floor.


==Strategies==
===Power-up Locations===
*[[Active Camouflage]] - Tucked away in an alcove on the second floor.
*[[Health Pack]] - In the exact center of the first floor, on a transparent platform.
*[[Overshield]] - Directly above the Health Pack, on the second floor.
 
===Tactics===
*Players ''must'' keep a watchful eye on their HUD and radar to prevent charging into a trap, and getting attacked from behind or flanked.
*Players ''must'' keep a watchful eye on their HUD and radar to prevent charging into a trap, and getting attacked from behind or flanked.
*If you get stuck with a plasma grenade, head for a teleporter as fast as you can, run into the middle and grab an overshield. This way you may survive, but unfortunately, you will be stuck with 0% shields.
*Players who prefer long range combat such as sniping and using the Pistol will likely loathe this level as it is better suited for short range combat with such weapons as with the Assault Rifle and Shotgun. The map itself is open, exploiting potential campers. In fact, there aren't many camping spots around.
*Grenades (especially [[M9 fragmentation grenade|frag grenades]]) are very useful on this map. In such a small map, players tend to clump together in bunches that just scream for a well-placed grenade.
*If you get stuck with a plasma grenade, head for a teleporter as fast as you can, run into the middle and grab an overshield. This way, you may survive but unfortunately, stuck with 0% shields.
*Most combat takes place on the first floor. Jumping into a teleporter puts one on the catwalk system, which means a slight reprieve from the action. As stated above, the catwalks are good for picking enemies off from a safe distance, especially with weapons such as the pistol. Beware, though—after a few shots (or grenades), players will notice you, and a least one will probably join you on the catwalk. Start moving as soon as the enemy begins to return fire.
*Keep moving throughout the whole battle. Players who stop moving, or stop to type on Derelict die very quickly.
*Using the side tunnels and picking up the [[M7057 flamethrower|flamethrower]] at their entrances can really help in objective based games, as everyone usually runs straight down the middle.
*Grabbing the Overshield and dropping down into the raging battles below can be a quick and easy way to earn some kills, as the individual players will be concentrating on their opponents. Use your Radar to track enemies attempting to assassinate you.
*If one should walk into a teleporter and walk backwards as they spawn, then they should walk into a small alcove behind the teleporter. If used in conjunction with the Active Camo and Sniper Rifle, this makes for an excellent hiding/sniping spot. Just remember that if you see your screen turn white, run out of the teleporter, switch to a weapon better suited to close combat, and turn around.
 
==Trivia==
*This map, along with [[Boarding Action]] and [[Chiron TL-34]], are the only multiplayer maps in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' that are set in orbit.
*In the game data this map is called "Carousel" possibly because of its circular shape and the physical appearance from the top resembles a carousel as the name suggests and could have been its original name.
*The architecture of the level resembles the architecture of the containment facility in the ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' level ''[[343 Guilty Spark (level)|343 Guilty Spark]]''.
*The map [[Assembly]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'' is very similar in layout to Derelict.
