Halo: Combat Evolved/Battle Creek

Battle Creek is one of the smallest maps. As its name suggests, there is a small creek in the middle. It is very popular for shotgun only games, as well as intense CTF games. As Halo:CE became generally accepted as a competitive game. New tricks and jumps were developed. Most notably, nade placement could allow you to acquire power weapons from across the map. Additionally, you can throw the flag up on top of the base or up through the teleporters allowing for quick and easy captures if your team were to be set up correctly.

The bases of each map have suttle differences, for example, Red base has a window big enough for you to jump out of flag room, while blue room's window is too small for your character model to fit through. Another difference is the power-ups in the back of the base (Med-pack, or Overshield). These differences can give some teams small advantages so it is important to effectivly use the differences to gain the upper hand.
