'''Erosion''' is a ''[[Halo 4]]'' multiplayer map intended for use as a cave themed [[Forge]] canvas. It is one of four such maps to be designed and adapted to Forging.<ref name="Examiner">[http://www.examiner.com/article/final-halo-4-forge-map-goes-spelunking-holds-griffball-arena-video '''Examiner.com''' ''Final Halo 4 Forge map goes spelunking, holds Griffball arena in video'']</ref>

==Description==
With hundreds of [[human]] [[Human colonies|colonies]] now razed in the wake of the [[Human-Covenant War]], the [[UNSC]] has dispatched large numbers of advanced pioneer groups to survey potential new worlds. The discovery of Eudemon X49-05 was considered lucky, but concerns remain about the moon’s structural integrity.<ref>[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2012/10/25/The-Halo-Bulletin-102512-.aspx '''The Halo Bulletin:''' ''10.25.12'']</ref>

==Gameplay==
Erosion is set in an expansive cave system, including a large watery area inside. Part of the map serves as a [[Grifball]] arena. A human facility of unknown function resides here.<ref name="Examiner"/>

==Trivia==
*It is possible to enter the inside of the "Rock Seastack" object on Erosion. This is not possible on other maps.
*Erosion's pallet has a drastic difference in texture from its fellow Forge Maps. Rather than being a clean white in color, Erosion's objects have a rusted and dirty texture, which is in context with the map.
*Erosion is often criticized for its uneven and sloped terrain that makes it difficult to Forge on.
