Sandtrap

"Sandtrap" (formerly known as Shrine) is a multiplayer map planned for Halo 3. It was first announced in the June 2007 issue of Gamepro. It was announced to be very large and the largest map ever in the Halo games. Bungie has apparently said it will have a very large emphasis placed on vehicles. A UNSC battle cruiser will also be over the landscape of the map. With many sand dunes, this map is a unique one. It may also be the "large map" bungie sparsely talked about in one of their updates. This was not one of three maps featured in the public Halo 3 Beta.

Spawns

Weapons:

• MA5C Assault Rifle
• Brute Shot
• Rocket Launcher
• Spartan Laser
• Missile Pod

Vehicles:

• Brute Chopper

Strategies

• Bungie accelerated the respawn timer for vehicles. Take advantage of that.
• Avoid fighting on foot through this large level.
• If stuck try heading for one of the Forerunner structures.
• Make sure you have plenty of grenades and explosive weapons.
• GamePro has stated that Sandtrap "...has few ties to older Halo 2 maps, but it's massive size recalls Relic".
