{{ | Argyle is set within the simulated interior of the {{UNSCShip|Argyle Gift}}, a future [[UNSC]] [[Human starship|starship]]. This simulated environment is a result in the increased use of [[War Games|military simulation software]] by defense contractors in the aerospace industry. The technology's robust scenario-geometry engines allow contractors to rapidly prototype full-scale ship designs and refit upgrades.{{Ref/Reuse|CFFourward}} | ||
==Layout== | |||
Argyle is a symmetrical map characterised by its long, wide-open hallway that connects the two bases, giving both sides a clear sightline between each other. Behind each base is a ramp leading to a more enclosed lower level, and a [[Gravity Lift]] leading to a small high-up battlement that is home to a [[Grappleshot]]. To the left of each base is an elevated walkway over a bottomless pit, with a [[SRS99-S7 AM sniper rifle|Sniper Rifle]] in the corner. | |||
The central area of the map is wide open and set at a lower elevation than the rest of the map. Its key feature is a floating platform in the middle, featuring an [[Active Camouflage]] pickup on the platform and a [[Repulsor]] below it. Flanking each side of the map are hallways which generally feature open views towards the center of the map but plenty of cover when traversing the halls themselves. A small vent passageway provides access to the aforementioned Active Camo platform. | |||
