Blood Gulch Vehicle Collection |
12 December 2001 |
  |
| DT_Spike puts as many vehicles on top of the Blood Gulch Bases as he can. Since these pictures were taken, folks have managed to put a pair of Scorpions up there, too... but Spike was the first to document the practice. |

Halo Exploration |

|
| Ben and Greg have spent many hours getting to the 'top' of the solo levels; places Bungie never really expected you to go. In many cases, the areas aren't even textured. It's fun to push the limits! |

Blood Gulch Vehicle Antics |
15 January 2002 |
|
| Brizzle sends in good pictures of the Blood Gulch base rather filled with vehicles, including a Scorpion tank. He includes a nice shot of the tank in a position which is nearly immune to snipers while still being able to be used as an offensive weapon. |

Ghost in the Mach - erm, Tree |
16 January 2002 |
|
| Some ghostly fun (as Johnnycab puts it...); Ghosts (and even a Warthog) up in a tree on Blood Gulch. That's how my sister drives... |

Up in a Tree |
21 January 2002 |
|
| The bases on Blood Gulch have trees out in front - Tom and friends managed to put a body or two (breathing, and not) up in the branches. Not bad! |

Video Banshee Tutorial |
22 January 2002 |
 |
Mark Levin gives us a 7 MB, 1:30-long movie (QT format) showing the takedown of the first Assault on the Control Room Banshee (the same one covered by Enzyver, above, in stills). Worth watching if you're having trouble bringing it down! (He shows multiple locations for shooting.)
Update: Several people have written in to point out that a much easier way to take this Banshee down is to simply fire a rocket up into the bottom of the platform - the impact will force the Banshee off after a shot or two. No aiming required. :) |

Video 'Lone Marine on GS' Tutorial |
23 January 2002 |
|
| Another one from Mark - this time it's a 4.7 meg, 1-minute movie showing how to get to the top of 343 Guilty Spark by using the dropship. You also get a good view of the 2D trees, and Mendoza (before Mark so callously beats him to death). Check it out! |

|
| Floating jeeps, and a Scorpion up pretty high... Sidewinder gets some flying vehicles! |

Video Banshee-on-Bridge-Boost Tutorial |
26 January 2002 |
|
| Mark keeps filming 'em - 2.1 MB and 20 seconds is all it takes to show you the easiest way to a Banshee on the natural bridge on the Assault on the Control Room level. (As an added bonus, Mark shows what NOT to do after you get the Banshee.) |

| Do the walls of Blood Gulch look too steep for you to climb? They're not... |

|
| How much hardware can fit in a single cave? More than you might think... |

Getting to the Tower in Blood Gulch |
29 January 2002 |
|
| Another technique for climbing out of the Blood Gulch gravity well... this one involves some tank fire and careful timing, but the results are worth it. |
