In addition to functioning as map editor, Forge used | In addition to functioning as map editor, Forge can also be used as a gameplay space. Up to eight players can be on a given map at a time, shifting back and forth between their chosen multiplayer model (''Player Mode'') and the ''Edit Mode'' model (a [[Monitor]]). A variety of Forge-specific settings can be altered by the party leader while in the Forge Lobby. As an example, players in Edit Mode can be granted more (or less) health and shielding as well as varying levels of Active Camouflage — editors can even be granted near or total invulnerability. There is also a setting that, if enabled, prevents all but the party leader from entering Edit Mode. Players can play actual games in Forge, experiment with Forge's features, kill each other, play diverse and varying 'honor rules' games, and do other things that aren't accepted in regular multiplayer. | ||

It currently supports | With the launch of [[Season 05: Reckoning]], Forge has been improved to incorporate AI units into Forge. The AI units include Marines, [[Unggoy|Grunts]], [[Kig-Yar|Jackals]], [[Sangheili|Elites]], [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]], [[Gasgira|Skimmers]], [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]], and the variant of frames supporting [[Adjutant Resolution]], with a limit of 32 AI units in the map. These AI units can be spawned through AI spawners, [[Gydrozka Workshop Breaching Pod|Drop Pods]], and/or [[Eklon'Dal Workshop Phantom|Phantoms]]; spawners and Phantoms can spawn up to 8 AI units while Drop Pods can only spawn 1 AI unit. If the Phantom is selected, it will also be able to drop off a [[Riuctda Workshop Ghost|Ghost]], a [[Bolroci Workshop Chopper|Chopper]], or a [[Bolroci Workshop Wraith|Wraith]], but the pilot of that vehicle will take the place of the 8th AI unit if the vehicle piloting is enabled. AI units can also move in specific move zones to act as a patrol route. AI units can also spawn with different weapons (i.e. Jackals can spawn with an [[SRS99-S7 AM sniper rifle|S7 Sniper]]), and properties that affect AI units are added using node graph. | ||
It currently supports 8 different blank canvases of different themes: [[Arid]], [[Mires]], [[Seafloor]], [[Institute]], [[Ecliptic]], [[Void]], [[Barrage]], and [[Permafrost]]. | |||
