'''Forge World''' is a new map in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', and the largest map in the series' history. Set on [[ | '''Forge World''' is a new map in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', and the largest map in the series' history. Set on a [[Halo Array|Halo]], Forge World allows the most flexible [[Forge]] editing ever seen, allowing players to create entire maps, within the larger map itself. The map is split into five main sections; [[Blood Gulch (level)|Blood Gulch]], the "island", the "rock", the "interior," and the "pocket".<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=27386 '''Bungie.net''': ''Forge World ViDoc'']</ref> | ||

The Gulch is set in a semi-enclosed, symmetrical canyon with a base at either end and an open field between, and a drying river running through it. The level supports vehicles and is recommended for 4-16 players. However, unlike its namesake, this map features a temperate climate full of grass, akin to the style of its predecessor, {{Levelname|Valhalla}}. Unlike the original Blood Gulch, the canyon is only semi-enclosed.<ref>[http://redvsblue.com/archive/?id=1376 '''Rooster Teeth Productions''': ''Deja View PSA'']</ref> There are also some features similar to Valhalla, the most predominant being the grassy terrain, the lake on the far side of the map beyond the blue base, and the snowy mountains beyond the red base. Other than the environmental changes, this area of the map is very faithful to the original Blood Gulch, with even the simplest nooks in the canyon walls being remade. The section itself is larger than the original Blood Gulch map, and possesses teleporters reminiscent of those from the maps [[Cold Storage]] and [[Gemini]]. The bases themselves are more detailed, with colored lights designating the red and blue bases. | The Gulch is set in a semi-enclosed, symmetrical canyon with a base at either end and an open field between, and a drying river running through it.
