The lower portion of the structure is a flat dome shape with an open tunnel running underneath. The upper portion is an enclosed circular structure supported by 9 energy beams and has an energy balcony that encircles it. The top of the spire emits an energy barrier that envelopes the playable area. There is another smaller Covenant building to the side of the spire. The map is compatible with [[Invasion]]<ref name="BWU716"/> , and is the opposite of Boneyard, having a Spartan offense and Elite defense. <ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrFjFKGajFc&feature=watch_response&safe_search=on '''IGN''' - ''Halo: Reach preview - Multiplayer maps'']</ref> It features a [[UH-144 Falcon|Falcon]], a [[Banshee]], and a [[Warthog]].
