Foundry (level)

Foundry is a Halo 3 Multiplayer map. It has been stated by Bungie to be the most flexible in forge mode. New Forge Items include Shield Doors, and Man-Cannons, but Bungie has hinted at a few other surprises in store. One of these surprises will be the ability to make certain vehicles have alternate appearances, possibly hinting at the first-time apperances of the jungle warthog and/or the arctic warthog, 2 kinds of Warthogs that were scheduled to appear in Halo 2, but never made it to the final versions of the game. Other vehicles will have alternate weaponry. This may suggest the possible appearance of the AA Wraith or TT warthog in multiplayer.
