Trivia

 * The term "Heretic" is used by the Covenant Loyalists to refer to the Covenant Separatists, hinting that this map may feature Covenant Separatist structures. This map could also be based on the Campaign level The Arbiter from Halo 2.
 * Getting a Sword Spree medal on this map earns the player the 'Blades of Fury' achievement. This fact suggests that it is either a small or medium sized map.
