Summary
Gephyrophobia is a level unique to Halo PC/Mac's multiplayer. It consists of a large two-level metal bridge, expanding over a misty pit. A base is on either side of the bridge, one side being red and the other blue. At each side of the bottom level of the bridge are one or two Ghosts. The bridge is similar to those found in Assault on the Control Room, but is it several times larger. Also, in Assault on the Control Room, it was day and there was snow. In Gephyrophobia, however, it is dark and, if you fall, you will see that it is extremely cloudy and contains no snow.
Overview
There are two levels on the bridge with ledges containing Sniper Rifles overlooking it on the opposing cliff sides. Between the two snipers of each base resides a Fuel Rod Gun.
There is a large tower in the center of the map that can be flown to in a Banshee. In the center of this location, there is a Health Pack. This area is also a popular area for sniping. However, your only foe will be other snipers and a Banshee, which can easily kill you. In the middle of the bridge, on the left and right sides, there is an Overshield and an Active Camouflage. Near each of these is a Shade. However, it is ill-advised to enter one of these because they make extraordinarily attractive kills. However, enter it if you wish to take down an incoming Banshee or gunner-less Warthog. The Overshield can also be found underneath each flag on each base. The Flamethrower is located below the base; that is, walk through the tunnel on either side, and the Flamethrower should be located in the center of the bottom part of the bridge. The Ghost is located right in front of it. Banshees are very popular, and can usually give you the upper hand on this map. Warthogs are located in front of the base on the top side. Capture the Flag is a popular gametype on this map. Slayer is not popular to the difficulty in finding an enemy.
