While most contemporary combat simulations occur in the [[Holography|holographic]] and pneumatic world of [[War Games]], UNSC Training Facility Bravo - alongside others located throughout the [[East African Protectorate]] - offer unfettered, live combat in real world settings. This methodology is the pride and joy of old-school drill instructors, whose lament the rise in illusory combat environs. Ironically, this site was then replicated in War Games as The Pit, a testament to its time-honored combat value.{{Ref/Reuse|HU}} | While most contemporary combat simulations occur in the [[Holography|holographic]] and pneumatic world of [[War Games]], UNSC Training Facility Bravo - alongside others located throughout the [[East African Protectorate]] - offer unfettered, live combat in real world settings.

The facility itself is set in a large aircraft hangar. Although a fence prevents trainees from leaving the arena, multiple [[D77H-TCI Pelican]]s, [[Scout Warthog]]s and [[M831 Troop Transport Warthog]]s can be seen on the facility's runway, with [[Mount Kilimanjaro]] looming in the distance.

The area of the Lower Base is adjacent or similar to the Upper Base, but is considered much larger. In this area, players spawn in either a rectangular room with ramps leading to the shotgun or Upper Base. The Shotgun spawns in the farthest corner in a small hallway curving around the edge of the map. This open area features much of the combat, as it is multi-leveled with ramps that access the Rocket or Camouflage Hall, as well as the High Bridge and Sword Room. Players can pick from a selection of a [[BR55HB battle rifle|battle rifle]], [[Type-52 Mauler|Mauler]], or two [[ | The area of the Lower Base is adjacent or similar to the Upper Base, but is considered much larger.

Above the Lower Base is a room which is only accessible by re-spawning or by butterfly jumping in it. This room is an excellent sniper perch. It is also a very effective hiding place in game types such as Team Doubles. | ||
