Spire

Spire is a multiplayer map in Halo: Reach. It was first talked about very briefly in the Bungie Weekly Update for July 16th, 2010, and the map's official name was revealed in the Forge World ViDoc, which launched on July 22nd, 2010.

Description
Very little is known about this map. The map is set on a beach with rocky cover. The focal point of the layout is the immense, towering Covenant structure. The lower portion of the structure is a flat dome shape with an open tunnel running underneath. The upper portion is an enclosed circular structure supported by 9 energy beams and has an energy balcony that encircles it. The top of the spire emits an energy barrier that envelopes the playable area. There is another smaller Covenant building to the side of the spire. The map is compatible with Invasion, and is the opposite of Boneyard, having a Spartan offense and Elite defense. It features a Falcon, a Banshee, and a Warthog. Both the bottom and upper levels of the map are playable areas.The map is compatible with the race gametype.

Trivia

 * This map is based off the Tip of The Spear campaign level in Halo Reach.
 * This map uses a "Reverse Invasion" style, in which the Spartan Team is attacking and the Sangheili are defending. Aside from the team changes, the Invasion works similar to that of Boneyard, with the exception to the fact that the core must be brought to a Pelican Dropship rather than a Phantom.
